23 minute:

60% - 2 minutes
90%- 1 minute
60% - 1 minute
90% - 1 minute Repeat

Minute 18 - 90%
Minute 19 - 100%

Next 3 minutes - 60%

Do your Ab routine or nothing after the 23 minute.

12 minute:

60% - 2 minutes
100% - 1 minute
60% - 1 minute
100% - 1 minute Repeat

Minute 8 - 100%
Minute 9 - 100%

Cool down for the next 2 minutes at 60%.

Do this before lifting weights if you're on a fatloss program.

The 60% is your rest, you don't stop switching like that until your HIIT routine is over.


HIIT is cardio, the only muscle you're bothering with is your heart. Which means run, jumprope, bike or use the elliptical machine, just as long as you can get your heart pumping to those effort ratios. Break your other muscle groups up into different days and work them until they're dead, I think I lift 3 days out of the week and do HIIT every day, 12 minute HIIT on the lifting days.
