    Usually after outlining "the problem", it's kind of standard to outline "the solution".
    Please go on.

    The problem: 1.) con artists that label every workout as HIIT to make a buck, 2.) unswerving believe HRM is the only matrix that matters (a different set of con artists), 3.) general public that clings to the next miracle instead of putting in the work, and 4.) the sensationalizing of scientific researches without trying to understand the underlying science and limits of the research parameters.

    "Put in the work."

    just go workout...

    most people who think they're doing HIIT aren't...it's very much a fad thing right now and anything and everything that has some kind of interval aspect to it is being labeled as HIIT.

    true HIIT is intense and should be used sparingly...it's purpose is to make small, incremental gains to fitness for those that are already really fit and trying to get an edge up...

    just go find something you enjoy doing and do it...your diet is going to matter the most where fat loss is concerned, not if you are or aren't doing HIIT or you are or aren't doing steady state cardio...worrying about stuff like that is basically majoring in the minors.
