Gabrielle Lyon: What does high intensity look like in practice?
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Perform HIIT at 77% of your maximum heart rate or above to meet vigorous intensity criteria.
- Use the talk test: If you can carry on a strained conversation, you’re at moderate intensity; less than that indicates vigorous intensity.
- Aim for VO2 max thresholds: A perceived exertion of 14 out of 20 or 7 out of 10 indicates vigorous exercise.
Bottom Line
To effectively incorporate HIIT into your routine, ensure your workouts meet the vigorous intensity threshold by monitoring your heart rate or using the talk test.
