I agree, interval training is AWESOME, I do it 5 times per week, but my training program is quite “Unique” LOL, it consists of a 14 km/h sprint for 2 minutes after a quick warm-up followed by another 2 minutes of slow jogging (8 km/h). After about 2 months i fell a lot fitter!! I recover much much much faster after intense exercise(football) and i feel that my sprinting speed had increased slightly. Also i lost 5 kilos in the process =D.
I strongly recommend this type of training, it really does work better than doing low intensity exercise for hours.

i downloaded this when reading your blog the other night and did the workout today while i was at the college. wow! i was almost able to keep up the entire time, but had to slow down about 20 seconds early on the 2 minute run. i don’t work out hardly EVER, so this was surprising to me. i plan on doing this twice a week to see how well it works for me. i feel great and my legs don’t hurt (yet)

I’m also on a quest to lose a good amount of weight (about 60 pounds). I’ve been working out steadily, but became intrigued with Biggest Loser – wondering how under dr’s supervision they were “healthily” losing the kind of weight they were.

I bought Jillian Michael’s book “Winning By Losing”. She has what amounts to interval strength training cycles that REALLY REALLY work. (I’m dropping weight like crazy after only dropping 1-2 pounds per week – and I’ve been using ipod fitness running and interval podcasts. I’ve kept those up 3 times per week and done her workouts 4 – her 5th workout is running anyway.)

You might want to check it out from the library – good luck.
