HIIT vs. steady state cardio for weight loss

Web Admin 0 196 Article rating: No rating

Comparing HIIT and steady state cardio if weight loss is your goal.

Hi friends! How are ya? I hope you’re having a lovely morning so far! We’re still on a little trip – sharing lots of details on IG stories! – but I had some posts ready to go while I’m gone. Today, I wanted to talk about two extremely popular cardio strategies and how they compare, especially if weight loss if your goal.

For years, cardio has been a go-to solution for cardiovascular health, weight management, performance and endurance training. HIIT has also surged in popularity in the past decade and is here to stay. Sometimes there’s confusion about which type of cardio you should choose in your routine, so today, I’m breaking it all down in this post!

HIIT vs. steady state cardio for weight loss

HIIT: High-Intensity Interval Training

HIIT is like a fiery explosion of energy that revs up your metabolism and torches calories long after your workout is over. By alternating intense bursts of exercise with short recovery periods, you push your body to its limits and experience the often-touted “afterburn effect.” HIIT can increase the size and density of mitochondria, which are like the fat-burning little powerhouses in our cells.

To get the body back to homeostasis, it has to bring all pre-exercise factors back to baseline, including decreasing tissue temperature and heart rate. Your body continues to burn calories at an accelerated rate for hours post-workout.

Benefits of HIIT:

Time efficient: HIIT workouts are quick and SWEATY, which makes them ideal for busy individuals. It offers a tremendous calorie burn and fat loss potential due to its intense nature and the post-workout EPOC (oxygen consumption post exercises).

Cardiovascular benefits:  HIIT also helps improve cardiovascular fitness by challenging your heart and lungs, resulting in enhanced endurance and stamina.

Performance benefits of HIIT: HIIT can also improve fitness performance, including power and strength.

Another advantage is its muscle-preserving quality, as HIIT workouts can stimulate muscle growth while targeting fat stores. Plus, HIIT can be customized to any fitness level, with modifications and variations available for beginners to advanced athletes. Incorporating HIIT into your fitness routine can rev up your metabolism, boost your mood through endorphin release, and provide a fun and challenging workout experience that keeps you motivated and engaged.

Reverse Sear New York Strip

Web Admin 0 167 Article rating: No rating

The perfectly even doneness of a reverse seared New York strip steak makes every single bite a mouthwatering slice of heaven.

Reverse-seared steaks can be started in the oven and finished either on the stove or on the grill. Or they can be cooked using only the grill. Full directions for both methods are included below.

Reverse Seared Steak

Oh my goodness, this was the BEST steak ever cooked in our home, or technically, in our backyard. After doing a bit of research, my husband wanted to try the reverse sear technique.

Edited to add: We’ve been reverse searing steaks for over ten years now and swear by this method as the best and only way to ensure perfectly cooked steaks every single time.

Are you reading this wondering, “what is reverse searing?” It sounded pretty weird to me too the first time I saw it mentioned.

Contrary to conventional methods, reverse searing simply means roasting the meat very slowly at low temp first and then searing it at the end. This method delivers the most evenly cooked steaks you can imagine.

How to Reverse Sear a Steak

The first time we reverse seared steaks we followed the directions from Chris over at Nibble Me This and we were absolutely thrilled. My middle son, who had never been excited about eating steak, even asked for seconds. I could hardly believe what a difference the reverse sear technique made!

Over the years, I’ve followed the tips and advice over at Serious Eats and figured out how to reverse-sear steaks in the oven for an even easier and faster path to perfectly cooked steaks.

Hi hi! How are you? I hope you’re having a lovely day! We’re still off on our trip, but in the meantime, I wanted to share more about the EquiLife Para Support Protocol since I’m almost a month into the two-month program. I’ve been learning more about the implications of parasites and their prevalence in our lives, and I knew it was something I wanted to do. I had some symptoms that I wanted to see if I could resolve and have been pleasantly surprised by my experience so far.

My experience with the EquiLife Para Support Protocol so far

I’ve heard it said that, “If you have a pulse, you have a parasite,” and then can affect humans in various ways. It’s interesting that they’re so common – an estimated   but aren’t commonly treated or addressed in Western medicine.

Here are some common symptoms that may be due to parasites:

Digestive Issues:

Persistent diarrhea, constipation, bloating, gas, abdominal pain, and frequent nausea can be signs of a parasitic infection in the gastrointestinal tract.

Unexplained Weight Loss:

Sudden and unexplained weight loss, despite a normal or increased appetite, could be a symptom of certain parasites that interfere with nutrient absorption.

Fatigue and Weakness:

Feeling constantly tired, fatigued, and lacking energy, even after sufficient rest, may be a result of parasitic infections that disrupt nutrient absorption.

Skin Problems:

Itchy skin, rashes, eczema, hives, or the sensation of something crawling on the skin are possible indicators of parasitic involvement.

Changes in Bowel Movements:

Stool abnormalities such as greasy or oily consistency, presence of mucus or blood, and the appearance of worms or their eggs in the stool

Mental and Emotional Disturbances:

Parasitic infections can affect mental well-being, leading to symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, mood swings, and cognitive difficulties.

Joint and Muscle Pain:

Some parasitic infections can cause muscle aches, joint pain, and inflammation, resembling symptoms of arthritis.

Allergic Reactions:

Parasites can trigger immune responses, resulting in allergic reactions like itching, hives, or asthma-like symptoms.

Sleep Disturbances:

Insomnia, disturbed sleep patterns, or restless sleep may occur due to the body’s response to parasitic activity

It’s important to remember that these symptoms can be cause
