Interesting article about HIIT (C|Net). I can attest to it being great until it isn't. There for a while when Fitness+ first came out I was doing it all the time. I didn't hit the "really bad" side of the article negatives but I did find I needed to lay off. Now I do them once a week at most but more due to my current routine.

The part about the glycogen burn though. That is real. I remember the video up thread about buying fat by creating a glycogen deficit and the HIITs (on Fitness+ at least) definitely do that. I'm thinking I'm going to have to incorporate that combine with a 500 calorie "protein" day to help burn the fat better. Maybe the fasting day should be the day after the HIIT though, specifically starting after the workout.

Also, my nipples are "outies" now! I don't know when that changed but they haven't been outies for longer than I can remember. Don't worry, I'm not posting pictures here but those of you who have been overweight know whatI 'm talking about.
