I do 15-20 minutes, 5 min warmup 30 sec sprint, 1 min fast walk and 5 min cool down. How many times a week do you do a HIIT session. I'm 10 wks out from my next BB comp. I was thinking just twice a week for now, my BF is at 12.5% now I usually compete at 8-8.5%, never using HIIT before I'm a bit unsure how fast the BF is going to come off. Any suggestions? Also, the elliptical HIIT sounds interesting, can you fill me in? Thanks.

Hi guys. I'm 18 years old and retired (due to injury) 400m hurdler.
May I remind you all that when you say 'Sprints' this is a flat out sprint and should only last 10/20 seconds MAX! Those of you saying you sprint for 60 seconds, maybe turn down the time and up the intensity! You'll see results!
Using HIIT 3x a week (20 second Sprints 40 seconds fast walk) and also slow cardio I got down to 5.7% BF in the summer.
I run to the park (5 minutes) perform 10 sets of the above, and then slow jog home! Done in just 20 minutes!
