High intensity interval training (HIIT) has become incredibly prevalent in the fitness industry over the past few years. There are many gyms around the country that only focus on high intensity interval training work outs, and many of the ones who don’t focus solely on high intensity interval training, offer classes.

Which is appealing to anyone who has a busy life with work, children and social lives. Time is the number one reason that people do not work out, “I am too busy” or “I don’t have enough time”. So, getting a greater physical and physiological benefit from a shorter more intense workout is appealing to many people. There have been numerous studies and research done to investigate these claims.…

purpose of this research study is to determine the effects of a high intensity versus a low intensity warm up on oxygen deficit and performance. This study hypothesized that the oxygen deficit levels will decrease with a high intensity warm up, therefore reaching steady state faster compared to a low intensity warm up. The Independent Variables are high intensity warm up versus a low intensity warm up, and the Dependent Variable are Oxygen Deficit and performance. There are also limitations…
