This high-intensity interval workout is the most effective way to burn fat and boost aerobic capacity at home. Even, it’s known as high intensity, it doesn’t mean it have to be highly intense, because there are periods of less intensive activity or rest.
The home fitness workout routine plan is perfectly designed to help you push to your maximum without hurting your joints. Because you don’t need a big space for working out, you can do it at your home. It is also called “quiet cardio” routine, so you won’t be bothering your neighbors.
