Intense At Home Pyramid HIIT Workout with Warm Up & Cool Down
High Intensity Interval Training (or HIIT) is perfect for tough, at-home workouts, and encompasses a lot of different types of exercises.
This particular routine (Intense At Home Pyramid HIIT Workout with Warm Up & Cool Down) also uses pyramid intervals, the idea of starting with a low interval time, weight, repetitions, or even distance, then slowly increasing with each set to a predetermined maximum before working your way back down.
A typical pyramid routine will have anywhere from 2-5 sets on the way up and a matching number on the way down and include one peak set.
This workout is pretty challenging, but you can easily drop the intensity by slowing down, modifying the exercises, and/or just taking a few extra breaks.
Just remember that the goal of any workout, whether it is HIIT, strength, cardio, or stretching, is proper form. So, only push yourself as hard as you can with clean form, if/once your form starts to suffer, slow down until you have your form under control again.
