I watched the programme. It was quite interesting, but I don't think the fact that exercise makes you healthier and live longer is a new concept! It is scary just how bad for you sitting down all day is, especially if you are an office worker, like me! I must move more and not sit in front of the TV or computer in the evening.
There does seem to be more and more evidence supporting high intensity interval training as being the more effective form of exercise over long periods of cardio- I will have to give this a try .0 -
I found it kind of old news really.
the blueberry muffin, banna and coffee would take 50 mins of moderate exercise to work off no supprise there as the total calories would be in the range of 500-600
HIT might work for you but it might not
going for a long walk helps with digestion and reduce fat levels in the blood stream for your meals the day after was interesting, but wait for the howls of protest from the weight lifing brigade claiming cardio destroys your muscles!
and plenty of room to say well I only need to do 3 mins of exercise a week.0 -
Interesting but you simply cannot diet and do HIIT every day, from my experience with me and my clients. It is too demanding on the CNS, esp when combined with heavy weights and a calorie restricted diet. I get my clients if required to do it once every 3 days.0

I posted this in another thread about HIIT:
The original context of the word "fit" is "fit for purpose", in other words capable of addressing the task at hand. By Survival Of The Fittest, Darwin meant best adapted to the environment, not necessarily the fastest or strongest.
HIIT may improve a few biological markers for general health in the body, but if you want to run a Marathon, bench your own body weight, swing your toddler round without hurting your back, look great in a swimsuit or do a physical job and still have enough energy to go dancing, HIIT won't achieve your goals.0 -
I plused this prog and will hopefully watch it tonight or tomorrow.0
