Incredible Body Transformations That Will Convince You to Try HIIT

Kyra Williams

Personal trainer Kyra Williams first discovered HIIT training through her then-boyfriend. Even for her, the first workout was killer. “We did group strength training and conditioning circuits that included walking lunges, medicine ball slams, bent-over rows, and a suicide run, all as fast as we could for several rounds. It definitely got my heart rate up,” she says.

While Williams was in shape at the time, at 135 pounds and a size six, HIIT training was what finally gave her the confidence—and super-star strength—she craved. She only lost five pounds and one pant size, but the difference in her muscle definition was noticeable. For those who want to try their skills in this type of exercise, Williams suggests trial-and-error so you can find a routine that really keeps you engaged. Williams is onto something; exercise has many benefits that have absolutely nothing to do with weight loss.
