Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 I think a problem with HIT is that everyone has a different opinion of what it is. Just putting a couple of questions out there to people who are advocates of HIT. What are the basic principles of HIT and how does it differ from a lot of other training methodologies? I have always associated it with concepts such as single set till failure, machine and super slow training. When training athletes how are they tested and how do you adjust programs to individual demands? Are different " types " of strength targeted? How would you train a soccer player? A football player? An alpine skiier? A triple jumper? What would be the scientific basis for the use of intensities, volumes and exercises?

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 My perspective on what HIT is: http://baye.com/articles/high_intensity_training.php I prefer to think of it as a set of principles with a lot of leeway for interpretation and application, as opposed to any one, fixed program.
