Hi. New to HIIT. Want to use it to lose some stubborn love handles fat, whilst hopefully keeping my muscle.I got myself a second hand stationary bike, it's pretty decent. Has 10 programmable levels of resistance and a timer. So, should i program it like this?first five minutes= level 3and then alternating between level 5 and 10 for every minute until 20 minutes total?Please help.

Forgot to mention, bike also has 10 built in preset routines with resistance automatically changing every minute as well.

Not HIIT.
>>230858Do elaborate.
>>230844I think it's more like 10 min. warmup and then u switch every min
bump for same question
you do know that doing HIIT will make your butt bigger right?
i usually put it on level 5 and do my intervals with speed. alternating between 150-170 RPM sprints (30 sec) and 40-50 RPM slow pedaling (60 sec)bout 10 rounds
I thought HIIT was going from working out to a complete stop, and working out again? I've been doing it like so:As many reps of an exercise I can do in 20 seconds, stop for 10 seconds, repeat for 8 minutes.
>>231378complete stop OR extremely light exercise ("active rest")i forget which is better/what's the difference
>>231369OH NO MUSCLE IS SCARY
