hill sprints programme

I LOVE this outdoor sprint HIIT workout, it’s a short but intense workout….perfect if you don’t have a lot of time but still want to get a high intense workout in. This HIIT workout is great for

  • Fat burning
  • Developing your speed
  • Developing your stamina and fitness

All you need is a football or rugby pitch , why not ask some friends to join you to increase the fun factor!!!
