Everyone keeps talking about HIIT and interval training. Is it really all it's cracked up to be? Can athletes and people who are already highly trained still benefit? This study breaks down the results of 4 weeks of HIIT training in elite rowers. Inspired by the thoughts this article provoked, the applications portion of today's episode is all about focussing on a training program long enough to see results, the power of believing in what you're doing, and philosophy on complete program overhauls vs. stepwise changes. John always reviews the full text of every article, but to see the abstract of the study discussed, click here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23222083
