Jimmy23 -> AM HIIT (May 2 2008 9:26:09)

Morning all,

Okay so i'm looking to lose the final layer from my belly and was thinking of doing AM HIIT.

should i do this as soon as i wake up with only a glass of water down me or on some food?

also in regards to the HIIT training and how to perform this correctly has anyone got any links on this??

Thanks!

Not the greatest idea in the world. Should always be pre-fuelled for best results.



Jimmy23 -> RE: AM HIIT (May 2 2008 10:19:23)

oh. per some people on here i was under the impression that if you are un fuelled then the body will turn to fat stores and not burning off calories incurred during the day??

so when should you add cardio in?



Integra -> RE: AM HIIT (May 2 2008 10:42:02)

The above may or may not be true but HIIT as a form of cardio should always be fuelled.

Agree. Hiit is very intense when done properly, I couldn't do it unfuelled!



Jimmy23 -> RE: AM HIIT (May 2 2008 12:51:06)

Thanks peeps.

i agree but that depends on his goals.
if he isnt worried about muscle loss only fat then he can go ahead.

But surely if done unfuelled he's likely to suffer issues with low blood sugar, dizziness etc. This has happened to me when trying out unfuelled hiit and it wasn't very pleasant.

I disagree.

Unfuelled = poorer performance = fewer calories burned = less weight loss.

This is undeniable.

Overall diet dictates the amount of weight lost, rendering unfuelled HIIT for weight loss less effective than pre-fuelling.

i agree cals in versus cals out is the only way but" rendering unfuelled HIIT for weight loss less effective than pre-fuelling."that would also apply to ss-cardio.



Integra -> RE: AM HIIT (May 3 2008 10:01:25)

Overall calories dictate amount of weight lost, rendering unfuelled HIIT exercise less effective than fuelled HIIT because of the decrease in the level of performance (and amount of calories burned during and after exercise).

and same applies to unfueled or fueled ss-cardio.



Rhez -> RE: AM HIIT (May 3 2008 11:45:27)

Not sure about you guys but i would not have the energy to perform effective HIIT without pre fueling.

SS cardio is less intense, immediate energy requirements are less of an issue. Meaning pre-fuelling is not a fundamental requirement.

Which is exactly what I was implying.

Sure you could try to do it, but it would be a half-arsed attempt with a lower calorie output than pre-fuelling.

i was talking about weight loss not performance,you can do both fuelled or infuelled,it wont make any difference if your in surplus you gain defecit you lose.
some people have no choice about fuelling,unless they are prepared to get up an hour earlier just to eat.
also prefulling for hiit/fatloss is not a fundemental requirement as you say performance yes fatloss not really.



CoNs -> RE: AM HIIT (May 6 2008 8:54:25)

end of the day

hiit is meant to be max effort, if you dont have any fuel you cant put in your max effort simple as

even if by you were able to put in a respectful amount of effort, say bye to your muscle

if you want to try and risk it, do so, its your body and your muscle, but anyone with sense wouldnt sacrifice there muscle when its avoidable

Everyone has a choice. They either do cardio fuelled or unfuelled.

HIIT unfuelled is not as effective as fuelled HIIT be it for fat loss or weight loss.
