HIIT vs Long Duration Cardio - Part 5 “2 Cardio Mistakes You’re Probably STILL Making”

July 2nd, 2008
· Filed Under: Fat Loss Nutrition · Fat Loss Workouts

Last week I shared an article from my friend and colleague Tom Venuto about high intensity interval training versus steady state training. When Tom first shared that article with his readers it produced more emails, blog comments and web hits than any newsletter so far this year. Obviously, there is a lot of interest in cardio training and how to do it right. Sadly, most people are still doing 2 things terribly wrong and it’s killing their results…

Tom VenutoAs I thought about reviewing the newest scientific study from Australia this week, or explaining the post workout “afterburn effect” (EPOC) that comes from intense forms of cardio, it dawned on me to backtrack, and ask…

But what if I told you that HIIT has never been proven to be 9 times more effective than regular cardio… What if I told you that the same study actually shows that HIIT is 5 times less effective than steady state cardio???
