You’ve probably heard of HIIT—high-intensity interval training. You may even make a habit of doing the workouts yourself. And there are a lot of seriously impressive advantages of turning up the dial on your fitness routine through these high-energy exercises that focus on maximum effort with very little rest—including that they boost cardiovascular health, maximize your calorie- and fat-burn, and even lower cholesterol.

And if you've ever dealt with knee pain, an ankle sprain or, frankly, just wanted a good sweat without all the jumping and rebounding that tends to come with high-intensity interval training workouts, HILIT can come in handy.
