The Little Method - A Balanced HIIT Approach

Coined by professors from the McMaster University, the Little Method is similarly built on intervals, but with a 1:1 ratio - time spent recuperating equals time spent on exertion. The key difference lies in its intensity and lengths of the intervals - exercises are performed at approximately 90-95% of maximum heart rate with 60-second intervals, followed by 60 seconds of rest.

In many ways, the Little Method presents a balanced approach to HIIT, providing ample recovery time without sacrificing the benefits of high intensity.
