by Aaron Hewitt PA-C, Physician Assistant OrthoCarolina’s Sports Medicine CenterYou’ve likely heard of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), a type of workout that isn’t totally new, but is increasingly popular and can be confusing because there are so many types.Usually short in duration, the HIIT intervals incorporate intense periods of work followed by low-intensity segments or rest, increasing both your aerobic and anaerobic capacity. Whether it’s CrossFit, P90X, Insanity, Tabata training, Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred or any other variation, these workouts can seem intimidating or downright scary if you’ve never tried one. Can I physically do the exercises and keep up with everyone?

Notwithstanding, no studies have as yet investigated the effects of resistance training on metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women. Thus, the purpose of this study was to verify whether resistance training could reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women.Methods: Twenty postmenopausal women were randomly assigned to a resistance training protocol (n = 10, 53.40 ± 3.95 years, 64.58 ± 9.22 kg) or a control group (n = 10, 53.0 ± 5.7 years, 64.03 ± 5.03 kg). In the resistance training protocol, ten exercises were performed, with 3 × 8–10 maximal repetitions three times per week, and the load was increased every week. Two-way analysis of variance was used to evaluate specific metabolic syndrome Z-score, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, triglycerides, waist circumference, blood pressure, strength, and body composition.

Surrender bro, women are tougher than we’ll ever be… and let’s not talk about the other tactics by the means of which they trick us into doing whatever they want without us even noticing 😮 In the world of search engines for scientific papers on training and exercise science the acronym “HIIT” is currently what the word “sex” has always been on Google & co. Against that background it is actually surprising that no one else but me has taken notice of a paper on the “Sex specific responses to self-paced, high-intensity interval training with variable recovery periods”.

In my freezer right now there is a big ball of frozen cookie dough. It’s about the size of a baseball and I really, really want to eat it. In fact, I want to eat it so badly, I’m starting to justify why I SHOULD eat it.  And of course, my mind turns right to thinking about muscle.‘I probably do need to eat a bit more today to gain muscle, gotta fuel the process you know….’Of course, there is some debate about this statement, and logically I know I really don’t need to eat the cookie dough, especially since it’s 10:05 in the morning right now.
