HIIT Interval Training

HIIT High Intensity Interval Training.. The way to burn maximum calories in a minimum time 

Maximum calorie burn comes from your sustaining your target heart rate throughout your work out of at least 30 minutes.

HIIT utilizes short intervals of maximum intensity exercise separated by longer intervals of low to moderate intensity exercise.

How PILOXING uses HIIT

PILOXING is a fusion of Pilates, boxing and dance. After a quick warm-up of your muscles, your class will start with a high-energy boxing set to increase your heart rate to the target zone as quickly as possible. Throughout the class you will shift from sets of boxing, Pilates and dance. A Pilates move will tone and tighten and give you a short time to catch your breath..but not enough time to let your heart rate lower from the target range. Just before this happens, your instructor will take you back to a boxing or dance set to get your heart pumping.

Happy calorie burning!
