    Well, that's weird. No description of an actual study design, just a bunch of assertions with nothing to back them up.

    You should have stopped while you were ahead rather than start adding a load of other myths!

    Best to avoid using absolute phrases like "the only way....". Because if you think about it there are many methods to achieve fat loss not just one.

    What about anything i said is a myth?

    All I'm saying is the more you put in the more you get out... how is this a myth.. how is mixing hiit into your training not beneficial over just doing steady state cardio? How is shocking the body a myth?

    Please let me know lol

    As I said before, it depends on your goals. Sometimes doing "too much" cardio, pushing the limits and HIIT can actually work negatively as I mentioned - in my case, it would have affected my recovery for lifting. So there is one reason right there.

    I lift 7 days a week, 2 to 3 days a week i do some form of hiit ...

    Get some good bcaas and beta alanine, because it shouldn't be a recovery issue. Too much cardio can be negative especially to lifters which is why hiit is a much better option in my opinion

    Look at a marathon runners body compared to a sprinters ...

    You yourself, do something; other than HIIT! So then save time, by not lifting & just doing HIIT! So you see, you even have a different exercise regimen; than what you're recommending! We all have goals, limitations & favorite methods of achieving them, regardless of time consumption! Some people'd rather use a needle & thread, to sew something; instead of using a sewing machine!
