I am so depressed. I got myself a treadmill just before lockdown, and I've been doing HIIT on it at least 2-4 x a week. I run at 14km on an incline of 3% for 20 sec, then reduce speed to 4km for 40 seconds. I do this anywhere from 8-10 sprints per workout. The treadmill shows I've burned about 150 calories each time. After over a month I've lost no weight and no inches off my body. I have no idea what hormonal imbalance might be stalling my metabolism, but I am convinced it is a metabolism problem, because even after such a workout I barely break out in a sweat. As a woman it is harder for me to see results compared to men anyway, but this is just crushing my spirit. Everyone else who does such a workout seems to see amazing results very quickly. This is the only form of exercise I do, because the plan was to jumpstart the weight loss with HIIT and then add bodyweight exercises for toning once the wt loss started. Not sure where to go from here.

The majority of the power from a rowing stroke should come from your legs.
The more legs you use, the more efficient you are, and the more calories you will actually burn as you are working the larger leg muscles harder.
But its like, doing chest press and using your arms more than your chest to lift the weight, totally not effective. Pulling an ergo with your upper body mainly is no different!
Not that it really matters for this video if you just trying to wreck your body as fast as possible, but if you improve that you can get to -10% body fat, thats right, negative body fat.

No joke, when I was 17 and 86kg, to run away from the daily stresses of life I used to something like this that I later learner is called HIIT. Basically build up, run afap, rest till ok, then repeat. This is legit what I did for never more than 20 minutes. I used to increase the distance and never the time(decrease for the same distance. Lost 17 kgs in 4 months. Dunno but weight training never made me lose weight.

Your content is gold, thank you! I have been stuck between 15-16% BF for almost a year and after your video I realized that weight training and steady state cardio is not going to cut it. Will definitely add some HIIT twice a week then progressively overload that every couple of weeks! Then at around 11% BF I plan tot start my lean bulking journey, no more dirty bulking for me

I started your intermediate shred program on April and its going great. At the moment Im 77-78 kg ( my original target ) and my body fat is 13. 8%. Its impossible for me to go to 10% body fat yes? I would have to go down to 70 kg which wouldnt be healthy. Am I missing something or this is how it is?

So much talking. So much pseudo science. Yet he does not look better or fitter than many others.
But i guess its important to sound educated. And btw: All the thumbnails are photoshopped as you can see in the videos where the look is more disappointing.

I'm still confused about this. As a skinny fat guy with last bit of belly fat I'm focusing on a small cut and then a lean bulk, some say hitt causes muscle loss in skinny fat while others day it's actually good for muscle preservation

Is HIIT done as a workout itself? Or is it after weight training? I read that HIIT should be done after a weights workout, but I also read that HIIT should only be the only workout you do that day because of how intense it is.

Hi. Thanks for the info! One question. When I perform hit sessions do I have to add calories to my meal plan or maintain the same caloric deficit compared to days that I don't? Thank you!
