The HIIT A workouts are designed for time-crunched athletes who want to get the most out of every minute pedaling. And that’s why Coach Jack chose HIIT intervals, because time and time again, scientific studies have shown that HIIT workouts produce significant physiological adaptations in minimal training time. Some people like them and others do not, but what we know is that they are extremely effective. If you want to get fit fast, go with HIIT workouts. In these workouts, Coach Jack starts off with easier HIIT sessions to help you get used to the stimulus and high-intensity workload. But don't be fooled, as these workouts can get hard very quickly.Coach Jack believes the perfect training plan adapts to how you like to train, and that’s why he stresses that you don’t need to over-commit to a plan that’s not right for you. Perhaps you give the HIIT A workouts a try, but you just don’t love them. Don’t dig yourself into a hole by continuing to push yourself through workouts you don’t enjoy. Instead, look for a different training plan that might be more suitable for your needs. In another scenario, you might use the time-crunched approach for a month because of a busy life schedule, and then switch to the Serious Italian plan. That is fine! The most important thing is that you enjoy yourself, because there is not just one right answer, it is what works best for you. View event on zwift.com
