HIIT, or High-Intensity Interval Training, is a new workout trend that involves short, intense bursts of exercise following by periods of lower-intensity exercise or rest. The science behind HIIT is that through these intense bursts of activity, the body burns more calories in a shorter period of time than traditional exercise routines that take longer and provide less fat-burning benefits.

 Although HIIT may just sound like another trend, there's considerable science that says the benefits are real, and it's considered to be one of the most efficient and effective ways to get in top physical condition and burn more fat in less time.
