[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To lose weight with exercise is very complicated and walking or running a few miles won’t do it unless you already have the metabolism of a trained athlete.
Below sprint/extreme level is what everyone calls HIIT which is not as intense as sprint training but works almost as well if done without hurting yourself and giving your body enough time to recover.

Most non-athletes or people really out of shape should not jump into sprint training without an ambulance parked next to them.

HIIT can be more toned down, like orange theory or whatever on line.[/quote]

No personal trainer would/should do sprint training with a non-athlete who has not cleared medical evaluations.
Doing that with  a normal person is dangerous if you are going for (literally) windgate levels.  It is for high performance training.  I am not sure even the military (other than special forces or something) does that level of training anymore.  It pushes professional athletes to their limits levels (vomiting, oxygen on hand, etc).

HIIT (not orange theory or some bs) done at 3:1 rest ratio should be plenty for anyone to jump start their metabolism; even that (done properly) is not for most people without several months to build up to an actual HIIT training cycle.[/quote]
