So You Want a Metabolic Workout? Try this HIIT Workout Today!

So, you want a metabolic workout do ya?! A little HIIT (high-intensity interval training)?! Well, well, well I am more than happy to oblige!

There’s nothing better than a really good sweat sesh at the gym or with your favorite group exercise biz (Hot Mama Health & Fitness is a personal fav, lol.). This is particularly true when you’re searching for a great metabolic workout, or HIIT workout, which is the current fitness buzz word. Buzz, buzz, buzz.

BUT, sometimes schedules don’t work out and you’ll need to get your sweat on at home. With all the information and workouts on YouTube to follow, how do you know which one to choose?

Let me help. This one. Do this one. Do this metabolic workout. Do this HIIT workout!

This Strength & Cardio Switch workout will not only help you with some strength training, but it’ll also jack up your heart rate (if you push yourself) and you’ll get a great metabolic workout. Hello, calorie burn.

Here’s how it goes:

Complete 20 reps of the first “Strength” exercise listed.
Then, complete 45 seconds of the first cardio exercise listed.
Back to the second strength exercise – 20 reps
Switch back to the next cardio exercise – 45 secs
Repeat twice! Yup…TWICE!

The key to this workout is that during the 45 seconds of cardio, I want you working hard. I’m talking juuuuuust below your maximum effort. High intensity. Yes? Do you have that in you? Oh YES, YOU DO! I know you do.

So go. Mentally prepare to kick your own butt. Fill up your water bottle, get yourself dressed, give yourself a little pep-talk and focus on you and what you’re about to do for your body, mind and soul.

Now…get to work! DO IT! OFF YOU GO!
