Where do you find your HIIT workouts? I'm looking mostly for things I can do in a gym setting. I'm sick of treadmills! Help!

    Joe Wicks the Body Coach guy - look on YouTube, he's got loads of hiit videos on there for all abilities.

    Orangetheory fitness centres are across North America (and other areas)... Their workouts are addictive

    Here's a couple videos I like on HIIT.
    Sled pushes, sprints, bike are good.

    Stairs, the track, sprinting 100 yards and walking 100.. You can pretty much do anything for H.I.I.T. 100% intensity for short bursts of secs. Maximum of 30. Workout usually lasts around 15-30 minutes. And you burn twice as much calories.

    I'm in the same predicament except I can't do anything high impact, per doctor's orders (arthritis, already have a fake hip). I've been doing a lot of research on HIIT and these are some of the things I do: sled (push quickly, no running), kettlebell swings, Jacob's Ladder (or Stairmaster), rowing, elliptical. I've even done body weight squats really fast, with rests in between.

    I'm always looking for more ideas though.

    @Sharon_C cycling is a low-impact activity that's gentle on hips, and hill repeats is a classic HIIT workout. But you should speak to your doctor before starting HIIT. (Honestly, most people who don't race are wasting their time with HIIT.)

    I second on the Joe Wicks HIIT videos, he posts them on FB, & has YouTube channel. Free, & good variation. Fitness Blender on YouTube also has free ones.
