High Intensity Interval Training – HIIT is a current trend because it burns a lot of calories, very quickly. But it also involves a lot of impact and wear. These are alternatives you can do to “rest” from HIIT
Walk
When we talk about counting calories, walking may seem like the most boring alternative, but the truth is that step by step, the calories burned add up. If you walk at 5-6 km/h for 30 minutes, the average person (around 75kg) burns around 150 kcal!! When you walk, focus on what's in front of you and keep your neck and back straight.
Swimming
Another alternative is swimming. In one hour of swimming, an average person at a not too high pace can burn up to 600(!!!) calories. Do you want to make your training more or less intense? Try different ways of swimming (stroke, breaststroke) or more or less intense rhythms.
Elliptical Workout
For a low-impact cardio session on your joints, give Eliptica a try. In addition to working your leg muscles, you can work your upper body and burn more than 330 calories in 30 minutes!
Step/Stair Machine
Stairs, since the invention of the elevator, have felt a little neglected and ignored… especially when they are such a good cardiovascular exercise! In addition to burning calories quickly, you work your legs and even improve your resting metabolism. This exercise is particularly beneficial for those who have pain in the lower back.
