Burpees are an awesome, full-body movement that are a killer addition to any high intensity work out. Think about it- you've got a squat, an explosive jump, a push-up, and another explosive movement to finish.

HIIT is characterized by short and intense workouts that require intense (110%) effort followed by a brief rest period. It is important to go for the intensity with all of your available effort, don't hold back or save anything for the next round and you'll be working in the "high intensity" realm.

These benefits of these workouts is that you can finish one in under thirty minutes and still burn calories throughout your day.
We're rolling into the third week of January and, I don't know about you, but I looked back at my New Year's resolutions and realized I had already forgotten about a few of them. That's right, not only did I just not make a plan to accomplish these goals, I actually forgot I had even set them.
