Additionally, performing HIIT can lead to a reduced heart rate and blood pressure.

Some studies propose that HIIT may even reduce blood pressure more than frequently recommended moderate-intensity exercise.

Nuffield Health’s Senior Personal Trainer, Phil Goulding said: “HIIT is a form of cardiovascular exercise. HIIT can be further broken down into two main categories SIT (sprint interval training) and HIT (high intensity training).

“This involves work periods ranging from 30 seconds to three minutes working between 80-100 percent of your maximum heart rate with shorter recovery periods than SIT.”
