HIIT at HOME: Do This Quick, Calorie Burning Workout

It's cold outside! And if you live in the Midwest like I do (I'm in Milwaukee, Wisconsin), it's been snowing.....a lot! Don't let the cold and snow stop you from getting your weightloss workout in. Do this HIIT workout routine complete with body weight exercises you can do from home.

What is HIIT?

HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training. This type of calorie burning workout is great for weightloss, burning fat and the perfect addition to your current weight training program. When you do a HIIT workout routine, you combine bursts of quick, all out physical activity with short recovery periods. (Example: sprint for 1 minute, walk for 30 seconds). HIIT workouts are versatile and can be done almost anywhere.
