Intensity Without the Jarring
High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is famous for its efficiency, but traditional jumping movements can be hard on the knees and ankles. Low-impact HIIT focuses on keeping one foot on the ground at all times.
- Squat to Overhead Reach: Replaces jump squats while maintaining heart rate.
- Step-Out Burpees: Removes the jump but keeps the full-body engagement.
- Mountain Climbers: A great way to get cardio and core work without vertical impact.
Training Tip
Focus on speed and explosive power in your movements to keep the "high intensity" alive without needing to leave the floor.
