High-intensity exercise

High-intensity exercise involves short bursts of vigorous activity that significantly elevate your heart rate and breathing. It pushes your body close to its maximum effort, challenging your muscles and cardiovascular system. Examples include sprinting, intense cycling, or lifting heavy weights with fewer repetitions. This type of exercise improves cardiovascular fitness, builds strength, and increases calorie burn in less time. Due to its demanding nature, it’s important to have a good fitness base and proper technique to minimize injury risk. Typically performed in intervals or circuits, high-intensity exercise is an efficient way to achieve significant health and fitness benefits quickly.
