This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Professor Martin Gibala about interval training in every manner of its use. They discuss the definition of “high intensity”, the metabolic and health benefits of high intensity training and how to know if you’re working hard enough. They also discuss the value of activity in general (including the zone 2 training), and research that Martin is involved in that explores the use of vigorous intermittent lifestyle activity (VILPA) and this in itself can be a game changer for many people, especially if not inclined to be physically active. They also discuss sex and age based differences and whether these are important to get the most out of the time spent training.


Dr. Martin Gibala is a muscle physiologist and professor at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. He is best known for pioneering research on the health benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and his profound understanding of HIIT's physiological mechanisms. He is a co-author of the book "The One-Minute Workout."
