High Intensity Training (HIT)
The most effective form of training for fast results
HIT stands for High Intensity Training and should not be confused with HIIT, High Intensity Interval Training. The latter is primarily used to train strength endurance, while HIT is a special form of hypertrophy training .
High Intensity Training (HIT) is a high-intensity form of training in which short, intensive training sessions are carried out. This form of training is very strenuous and the recovery time after HIT training is correspondingly longer than with conventional volume training.
HIT saves time - but is very demanding
The training is performed with 80 to 90 % of 1 RM, whereby 1 to 2 sets per muscle group should be enough to intensively strain the muscles. It is important to always perform the individual sets until muscle failure in order to provide the right stimulus in a single set, which can contribute to muscle growth.
HIT should not be done more than three times a week to give the muscles enough time to regenerate.
With a full-body workout - performed two days a week - the entire body can be trained in a single training session. If you don't have the strength for a full-body workout, simply split up the training and divide the different muscle groups into different days.
In this subject of the Health Fitness Personal Trainer course, you will also learn how a HIT unit is structured and what to pay particular attention to.
