Best Equipment for High-Intensity Interval Training

Now more than ever we are living a sedentary life to a high degree.

Work at home lifestyle means the little walking we did to the car and the office is gone. This causes our bodies incredible strain, including an increased risk of cancer and heart problems.

Only doing one high-intensity interval training cycle won’t fix the problem, but getting a routine will go a long way. To get a routine and to exercise, you need the gear.

Keep reading to find the gear you need for your HIIT routine.

Best Gear for Upper Body High-Intensity Interval Training

For the best HIT workout, you need the best gear. That doesn’t mean it has to be the most expensive or trendy. It means that it needs to be the most effective.

Some of the most effective exercises you can do are:

• Sit-ups
• Pushups
• Handstands
• Slam ball exercises
• Battle rope exercises

For that, you can certainly use any floor space you have. However, getting a little help from parallel bars you can get a deeper stretch and better form. Aside from dynamic slam ball and battle rope work, you aren’t giving equal attention to flexion and extension.

To round things out, you’ll want kettlebells and dumbbells. Keeping things from a home perspective, we want to have something compact. Preferably you’ll want to have an adjustable dumbbell weight with a compact storage rack.

Lower Body High-Intensity Interval Training

Fortunately, you can use those dumbells along with some of the best lower body HIT workouts you can find. A sample workout for the best HIT workout could incorporate an exercise consisting of:

• Walking lunges
• Run
• Bodyweight squats
• Jump squats
• Single-leg Romanian deadlift
• Jumping lunge
• Side lunge

It’s not recommended to run with excessive weights on legs, due to the damage they can do to ligaments and tendons over time. A little weight can go a long way, once you have some connective tissue to keep things in place.

Using dumbbells for walking lunges and single-leg Romanian deadlifts can really max out your HIT exercise routine.

Aside from dumbells, you’ll need some fantastic footwear.

If you’re looking for low-impact lower body fat-incinerating HIIT equipment, you can incorporate a cycle trainer or bike.

The Best HIIT Exercise Equipment for the Best HIIT Routine

You know your body (and its history) best, so your high-intensity interval training should match what you know it can handle. Whether that means low-impact lower-body training, rather than high-impact sprinting doesn’t matter. With the right gear, you can the results you’re looking for.
