high-intensity interval training
Bursts then recovery
High-intensity interval training is an exercise method alternating short bursts of intense effort with brief recovery periods.
A session might involve sprinting for thirty seconds, walking for a minute, then repeating.
Often abbreviated HIIT, it's promoted for burning calories efficiently and improving cardiovascular fitness in less time than steady-state exercise: I do HIIT three times a week.
