Focus mode

Exercise physiologist John Reams leads a 10-minute High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) session with Katherine Barrett and Tammy Sampson. This adaptive workout includes five movements: a push-up variation, punch-knee combo, four punches with a kick, alternating punch-knee, and a modified jumping jack. Each exercise lasts 30 seconds, followed by 30 seconds of rest. The sequence repeats twice, with an emphasis on moving quickly and engaging multiple muscle groups. John recommends warming up beforehand and encourages viewers to share the video if they find it helpful.

What is HIIT?
High-Intensity Interval Training alternates bursts of effort with short rest, making it an efficient way to boost fitness.

Why it works:
HIIT improves cardiovascular health, burns calories quickly, and builds endurance. Best of all, it can be adapted for people with disabilities while delivering the same powerful benefits.

Backed by research:
Studies show that regular cardio, including adaptive HIIT, can improve heart health, mobility, and quality of life.
