The basic kettle bell swing kills me after a workout.
Wish I can give you advice on this.
More power to you Rob if you can keep it up. I am all for anyone young or old who
wants to doing better for themselves when it comes to working out.

You bring up a good point actually. HIIT is not for everyone. It's more of an advanced approach to fat burning specifically and is more important for athletics training than just a regular maintenance thing. I still don't like long and slow cardio routines though. Well, unless you are doing some marathon training that is.

Not sure i meant that really. I mentioned the exercise bike because it is a safe choice for intense movement. As opposed to a tread mill. If you do sprints on that you WILL fall on your face. Elliptical is doable but still not safe for sprint work. Flailing sounds like an injury waiting to happen heh
