High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has proven benefits, enhancing metabolic rate and overall exercise outcomes. HIIT involves short bursts of intense activity followed by low-intensity recovery periods. While HIIT might be too intense for some, you can adapt its principles to walking.
A recent study titled "Incorporating HIIT Principles into Walking: An Effective Exercise Approach" showed that alternating 30-60 seconds of intense walking with 1-2 minutes of slower walking significantly improved cardiovascular fitness, metabolic rate, and other health markers.
This simple change can enhance the effectiveness of your walking routine, providing an efficient and accessible workout for everyone.
