Hi everyone,

Today I blogged about how I've burned the most calories and totally transformed my body with just a simple change to how I was working out. Everyone knows that strength training burns fewer calories than cardio sessions but not for me!

    Well, HIIT isn't akin to actual "resistance" strength training. I would gauge it more to strength training, but there's more cardio involved in HIIT than in actual weight lifting for strength. HIIT can be aerobic as well as anaerobic.

    Completely agree with AP. I'm glad you're losing through HIIT. I too burn more calories with weight lifting, only for the sake that I do not rest for long periods of time between my sets. And HIIT ...well, it's non existent in my fitness regimen, I simply don't enjoy it.
