HIT - Can I do a HIIT workout while in Limbo?

Yes, but avoid doing them more than 3 days a week.

HIIT - High Intensity Interval Training - is great for cardiovascular health and building stamina. However, HIIT will put a demand on your body’s recovery resources and recovery is an important part of weight loss.

If you see you have low glucose in the first 4 hours of the night, it is likely to be the process of post-exertion muscle repair.

If you enjoy doing HIIT workouts,  ensure you have high protein meals and remember, prior to any workout, avoid energy drinks - you don’t need them.

Limbo tracks your energy. When you are switching your energy sources from external (carbs in food) to internal (stored energy), there are lots of different processes involved.

While losing weight you may notice a reduction in your performance during HIIT workouts. In terms of fat loss, lower-intensity steady-state (LISS) workouts are ideal as they promote the use of stored energy, but don’t put such a demand on your system and recovery needs. You can do a LISS activity every day, or twice a day if you like!
