So, I've been looking to start training more seriously. However, I don't really have the time (and patience) to put in all the hours to start with base training. I've been looking a bit into studies high intensity interval training and it actually seems to be a pretty good option, as the studies were done in untrained people.
My situation is that I'm a 22 year old student. I used to play sports up to 5 times a week, but now I'm largely inactive, and overweight. I do the odd 20-30km ride, but not regularly.
I'd like to know if anyone of you
- has experience with hiit
- know if you can start straightaway w/o stuff like endurance training
- which specific protocol to use
- how to combine it with other training (i.e. 'normal rides)
