Science and application of high-intensity interval training : solutions to the programming puzzle

Paul Laursen (Editor), Martin Buchheit (Editor)
The popularity of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) has grown massively in recent years. Its effectiveness and efficiency have been proven in use by both elite athletes and general fitness enthusiasts. However, very few resources have attempted to explain both the science behind the HIIT movement and its sport-specific application to athlete training. That's why 'Science and Application of High-Intensity Interval Training' is a must-have resource for sport coaches, strength and conditioning professionals, personal trainers, and exercise physiologists, as well as for researchers and sport scientists who study high-intensity interval training
