New to HIIT Anonymous
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 3
and then alternating between level 5 and 10 for every minute until 20 minutes total?

Please help.

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.

complete stop OR extremely light exercise ("active rest")

i forget which is better/what's the difference
