🧠 Trainer’s Insight

“You don’t need fancy equipment to shred fat. Intensity is the secret weapon. HIIT boosts your metabolism, pushes your limits, and keeps you burning calories long after the session ends.”
— Gym Beast Coaching Team

🔍 Why HIIT Works for Weight Loss

  • Torches fat with short bursts of intense effort
  • Improves cardiovascular function quickly
  • Increases afterburn effect (EPOC), meaning more calories burned at rest
  • Saves time while delivering maximum results

In your Gym Beast Journal, jot down:

  • Number of rounds completed
