Embodied Interval Training

About the Class

A full-body workout that aims to improve cardiovascular health, muscular strength, and endurance. This heart-pumping class will combine muscle conditioning with bursts of cardio using mostly bodyweight and light weights with additions of other equipment as inspired.  There is a growing body of research proving interval training can provide similar or greater benefits in less time than traditional longer, moderate-intensity workouts. This High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) workout involves short bursts of vigorous exercise followed by short, active recovery periods, which leads to a prolonged afterburn, or EPOC (excess post oxygen consumption). This causes the body to take longer to return to its state of rest, so it continues to burn calories (5x more) at a higher rate long after the workout session has completed.
