How to Interview for a Job Posted: 04 Sep 2020 01:00 AM PDT Job interviews are nerve-wracking occasions. You are being judged on your ability to answer questions convincingly and clearly, as well as listen and process information. While you can't predict how the interview will pan out, you can stay prepared by thinking about your responses and the overall impression you want to make, which will give you the best shot at landing that job. [Edit]Preparing for an Interview - Confirm your interview ahead of time. Once you know that you're interviewing for a job, you should quickly confirm your attendance. Double-check the time and place of the interview, and express how thankful you are for the opportunity.[1] If you have received a letter or email asking you to interview, look for instructions on confirming your attendance, as well as any contact details for your interviewer. Try to do this the day before, so you can be sure that everything's in order.[2]
- You can do this via email, but it can be nice to call so you can have a brief chat and ask any immediate questions you might have.
- If you need any accommodations, such as disabled access, you should let them know as soon as possible.
- This call or email will likely be to somebody who works in Human Resources or recruitment.
- Research the company before attending your interview. Take some time to review the history and background of the organisation you are interviewing for. This is vital for a number of reasons, especially for conveying your enthusiasm and initiative to the interviewers. The level of research that is possible will vary massively depending on the company and the position you are applying for, but there are some common areas to research before the interview.[3]
- Figure out if the business is in the private or public sector, or somewhere in between.
- Try to get an idea of the company's values and overall mission, as well as their usual client base.
- Check the news to see if the company has done anything noteworthy lately.[4]
- Review the format of the interview before you arrive. Wait for specific instructions from the interviewer about how the actual interview will go down. Some businesses may have a straight question and answer process, while other companies may expect you to give a presentation. Feel free to ask any questions ahead of time, so you can prepare and adjust for your interview as needed.[5]
- Double-check all the details of your interview ahead of time. If you're presenting something, confirm how long your presentation needs to be, along with any other elements of the interview.
- If you need any IT, such as a laptop and projector with Powerpoint, communicate this to the organisation as soon as possible so they can be prepared.
- Read through the job description again. Look over the job listing so you can refresh yourself on the particulars of the position. Re-reading this section can give you a good idea of what the interviewers may ask you in the interview.[6]
- For instance, if the job asks for 5 years of experience, the interviewer may ask you to describe some of that experience.
- Practice answering potential interview questions.[7] Note that every interview will be different, and that it's impossible to entirely predict what questions you will be asked. Brainstorm some sample questions that could come up in the interview, as well as how you plan on answering them.[8] Additionally, brainstorm some anecdotes you can share at the interview that really showcase your past experience and knowledge.[9]
- For example, if your interviewer asks you why you want the job, you can say something like: "I want to be a Public Relations Coordinator so I can make a positive difference in the world around me."
- If you're asked about your strengths and weaknesses, you can say something like: "I'm great at staying focused and prioritizing tasks. Unfortunately, I'm such a perfectionist that I can get caught up in the details instead of the big picture sometimes."
- Ask a friend or family member to help you conduct a practice interview as you get ready. This can help you improve your on-the-spot thinking skills, and also help you prepare possible answers ahead of time.[10]
- Dress to impress your potential employer. Pick out a sleek, professional outfit that fits you well, like a dress shirt and blazer, or a blouse with a pencil skirt. Finish off your outfit with a polished pair of shoes, so you look as professional as possible.[11]
- For instance, a dress shirt with matching slacks and a nice coat is a great outfit to consider.
- A pants suit or skirted suit are other good options to consider for your interview.
- You should dress professionally for any interview, even if it's a virtual one. This lets your potential employer know that you really take the job seriously.[12]
- Provide a professional email address to potential employers. Give your potential employer a professional email address, like a combination of your first and last name. If you have to sign up for a conferencing service, choose a simple and professional username that clearly states who you are. Try not to use hobbies or other nonsense words in your usernames, or else the interview might not take you as seriously.[13]
- For instance, janebrown@gmail.com is a much better email to use than janelovesfalloutboy@hellokitty.com.
[Edit]Arriving for a Physical Interview - Proofread your resume and cover letter ahead of time. Check that your biggest accomplishments are clearly listed, so your potential employer can get a clear understanding of your capabilities. Additionally, double-check for any grammar or spelling errors, just to be safe.[14]
- Bring copies of your resume, cover letter, and any other important documents. Ask your interviewer if you need to bring any documents aside from your resume and cover letter. Depending on the job, they may want you to bring in certificates or other documentation that they can scan or photocopy. You may need some form of official ID, a reference sheet, recommendation letters, a fact sheet, and a portfolio of your past work.[15]
- Always bring a pen and some scrap paper in case you have to write anything down.
- Arrive 15-20 minutes early to your interview. If you arrive late to an interview, you'll look like you aren't committed or invested in the job. You may also look disorganized, and like you don't have a lot of initiative. Traffic delays are common, so give yourself plenty of time to get there.[16]
- Be courteous to the office staff when you arrive. It's important to make good first impressions with everyone you meet, not just the people conducting the interview.
[Edit]Setting up for a Virtual Interview - Test out your technology the night before to make sure everything's working. Boot up your computer, laptop, tablet, or whatever piece of tech you're using to attend your interview. Double-check that you have a secure, stable internet connection, and that your conferencing program works correctly. As an extra precaution, conduct a test call to make sure your microphone and video camera work.[17]
- Ask a friend or family member if they'd be willing to call you on the designated video platform so you can make sure everything works.
- Sit in a private, quiet area during your virtual interview. Find a low-traffic area of your home where you aren't likely to be disturbed. Check that the space has good internet connection, and that there isn't a lot of background noise that can leak over into the call.[18] You can make yourself look extra professional by setting up a nice backdrop behind your seat, like a white sheet.[19]
- For instance, a home office or well-lit portion of your basement are both possible options for your interview.
- Avoid sitting in a cluttered area, as this might make you look unprofessional.
- Ask your roommates or family not to disturb you during the interview. Let the people you live with know when your interview is happening and where your base of operations will be. Politely ask if they can stay in another part of the home during the interview, or if they can leave for an hour so you aren't disturbed.[20]
- For instance, you can say something like: "Hey! My interview is tomorrow at 2:00 PM. I'll be doing the interview in my bedroom, so would you be okay with hanging downstairs until I'm done?"
- Maintain polite and professional body language throughout the interview. Sit up with your back and shoulders straightened. Plaster on a professional smile throughout your interview, and do your best to make firm eye contact with your webcam. Since you can't shake hands or sit with the interviewer in person, you want to look and act as professional as possible.[21]
[Edit]Attending Physical and Virtual Interviews - Display positive body language throughout the interview. Make an effort to smile and look the interviewer in the eye. As a polite precaution, wait to sit down until the interviewer asks you. When you are seated, do your best to sit up straight and keep your hands, arms, and feet still. You can display a positive attitude through both your words and actions, so keep this in mind during the interview.[22]
- The initial stages of the interview are crucial and the impression you make in the first twenty minutes count for a lot.
- Listen to the interviewer to show that you're attentive. The interview is a conversation, not just you giving a monologue. Focus on listening intently so your interviewer knows that you're a team player. Remember—part of communicating well is listening well.[23]
- Listening well will also help to get a good picture of the culture of the place you are interviewing for.
- Repeating what the interviewer says in different words can make you look really attentive. For instance, if the interviewer mentions that the company has a positive work environment, you can say something like: "It sounds like everyone in the office really cares about one another."
- Answer the questions you are asked honestly. Try to answer each question as directly as possible. If you are being asked if you have a particular skill or experience provide some clear evidence of this with an example. Use each question as an opportunity to showcase your skills, talents, and experience to the interviewer.[24]
- For example, if you are asked about your organisational skills, you might say that you are highly organized but follow this up by describing an event you organised in the past.
- If you are asked about meeting deadlines, you could reference college or school assignments that you always turned in on time.
- If you are asked about the ability to handle competing priorities, you can talk about juggling work and study.
- If you can use evidence from outside work and education, you will also present a more rounded picture of yourself and your outside interests.
- Strike a professional and confident tone in your interview. Be professional, but relaxed and confident throughout the interview. If you pay close attention to the interviewers, you may notice the style and tone they use and you can try to adapt to that and show that you can work well in such an environment.[25]
- Tell a story of your progression and development.[26] Mention your past accomplishments, as well as the road you've traveled to get to where you are today. Describe where you started out and how you got experience, so the interviewer gets a full sense of your professional identity.
- Don't get carried away—a little personal information can go a long way.
- Avoid using negative language. Keep your language positive and optimistic, even if you don't completely understand or know the answer to a question. Express that you're willing to learn, and that you're a team player.[27]
- Instead of just saying "no," change the emphasis to a positive by highlighting other things you have done which are relevant, while indicating that you are keen to develop in this area.
- For example, if you are asked if you have ever organised an event at work, don't say "no, never." Instead, say something like, "I have not been the lead in organizing events, but I have been part of a team who did this and learned a lot from it." You could also give an example of something you have organised outside of work, like a sports tournament or charity event.
- Be positive, and show how you want to develop your skills and experience.
- Ask questions so you sound engaged.[28] Brainstorm questions about the company and potential position throughout the interview. Let the interviewer know that you've not only been listening to them, but that you're engaged enough to ask and find out more.[29] You should ask questions both about the employer and about the job.[30]
- Ask about different training and career development opportunities, or what your interviewer likes and dislikes about the job.
[Edit]Conducting Yourself after the Interview - Send a thank you note to the interviewer. You can do this with a handwritten note, or by email, but you should do it within the first 24 hours after the interview. In this note, thank them for the opportunity to interview. Additionally, include some further information about you that follows up in something touched upon in the interview.[31]
- You can follow a basic template of thanking the interviewer and briefly reiterating why you should be selected for the job, then finish by saying that you are looking forward to the next step.[32]
- You can include additional information and follow-up on something specific, but try to make it sound as natural and unforced as possible.[33]
- Contact the interviewer if you don't hear back right away. If you were told you would hear on Monday morning and you haven't heard a few days later, it's okay for you to contact the employer and politely ask if a decision has been made yet. A brief phone call or email to HR should suffice. The key thing to remember is to be positive and don't sound impatient or annoyed.[34]
- Say something like: "It was great to meet you! I enjoyed talking to you and I was just wondering where you are in the decision process."
- Prepare yourself for the best and worst possible scenarios. Keep in mind that some recruitment procedures include more than one round of interviews. If this is the case with the position you have applied for, stay sharp in case you're called back for a second interview.[35] Don't be discouraged if you end up getting passed over for the job—this is completely normal, and has happened to countless people during the interview process. Instead, put your best foot forward and continue looking for new job openings![36]
- At the second interview you will want to be even better than at the first, so make sure you prepare thoroughly and have information about the company and the industry that you can talk about to demonstrate your knowledge.
- If you don't get the job, you can ask your interviewer for feedback or ways you can improve for future interviews.
- Get lots of rest the night before your interview so you feel refreshed and ready to go.[37]
- Practice driving or commuting to your job interview ahead of time so you can get the route down.[38]
[Edit]Warnings - Keep your phone silent throughout the interview.[39]

How to Keep Food Fresh on a Road Trip Posted: 03 Sep 2020 05:00 PM PDT When you're going on a road trip, the last thing you want is to run out of food because it went bad. That's why it's important to know how to prepare food properly for your road trip. Then, you need to pack your cooler the right way to keep your food fresh as long as possible. Make sure to plan out your meals so that you bring the correct amount of food, use a high-quality cooler, and use a separate cooler for beverages to preserve your perishables for the duration of your trip. [Edit]Preparing the Day Before - Pick foods that are easy-to-prepare and will last for your road trip. Things like deli meats, cheeses, pre-cooked hot dogs or sausages, fruits and vegetables, potato salad or pasta salad, and other premade and precooked items are good choices. Plan out easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, and dinner meals for each day of your trip and bring the necessary ingredients.[1]
- Limit the amount of raw meats and other highly-perishable items to just what you plan on making in the first 1-2 days, since these foods will go bad the fastest.
- Things like sandwiches and wraps are easy to throw together on the road, and their ingredients will last a long time in your cooler.
- Prepare and portion out your food to get it ready to pack in your cooler. Chop things like fruits and vegetables so they are ready-to-eat and take up less space. Take things like raw meat out of its store packaging and separate it into portions to repackage in smaller containers or bags.[2] thick and made of molded plastic. It's also best to use 2 coolers, 1 for food and 1 for drinks.}}
- You can pre-make things like pasta salad, potato salad, baked beans, and other side dishes. You can also precook some chicken or other meat to use for sandwiches or wraps on the first day or two.
- If you are bringing condiments, put smaller amounts of them into smaller containers rather than bringing the whole bottle or other container.
- Put the prepared food into sealable containers and bags. Put food in plastic bags with a zip top or sealable tupperware containers. This will keep food from getting wet or leaking and contaminating other foods in the cooler.[3]
- Try to be as space-conscious as possible and pack things in bags and containers just big enough to hold them. This will save space and let you pack foods more tightly in your cooler to keep them colder.
- Don't put wet raw foods like fruits and vegetables in sealed packaging or they won't stay fresh. Either don't wash them before packing them, or let them air dry completely before you pack them up.
- Freeze all perishable food you won't eat on the first day to keep it fresh longer. Put foods that will go bad quickly, especially raw meat, in the freezer the day before your trip and let them freeze overnight. Leave just enough food unfrozen for the first day of meals of your road trip.[4]
- You can also freeze things like fruits and vegetables that you won't eat right away to keep them fresh longer.
- It's ok to leave things like sealed deli meats and dairy products in the fridge instead of the freezer, as these items won't go bad as quickly.
- Refrigerate all the perishable food items that you don't freeze. Put all the rest of your food that could go bad in the fridge the day before you travel to increase their shelf life. This includes items that you would normally put in the fridge, such as dairy products, and items you might typically leave out, life fruits and vegetables.[5]
- You don't need to do this for non-perishable food items, like nuts or other snack-type items that won't go bad.
- Freeze enough water bottles to line the bottom of your cooler. Check how many water bottles fit in the bottom of your cooler, then freeze at least this many. These will act as ice blocks to keep your food fresh in your cooler, and then you can drink them later on.[6]
- You can do this with several personal-sized water bottles or fill a couple of larger bottles with water and freeze them to make bigger ice blocks. For example, 2-liter soda bottles or gallon milk jugs work well as ice blocks for large coolers.
- If you don't have or don't want to use water bottles, you can also use commercial ice packs or freeze some water in ziploc bags to make ice blocks.
- Fill your cooler with tap water and 1-2 bags of ice the night before to pre-chill it. Bring your cooler inside from wherever you store it to a cool room and dump 1-2 bags of ice into it. Fill it up the rest of the way with tap water, close it, and let it sit overnight.[7]
- This will ensure your cooler is already chilled when you pack food into it so that the food stays colder longer.
- Make sure to dump out the ice and water before you pack your cooler for the road trip.
[Edit]Packing Your Cooler Correctly - Line the bottom of your cooler with frozen water bottles. Take the water bottles you pre-froze out from your freezer and put them directly into your cooler. This will form the base layer of ice that will keep your food cold and fresh.[8]
- You want to pack everything into your cooler directly from your fridge and freezer at the last moment before you leave and in the shortest amount of time possible. The less contact the food has with warm air, the longer it will last.
- Put frozen food items on top of the frozen water bottles. These are the items that you will eat last and are the least delicate, so put them at the very bottom. They will also stay frozen longer if they are in direct contact with the ice blocks.[9]
- Double check to make sure that all meat and other frozen items are well-sealed as you pack them into the cooler. You don't want any raw meat juices leaking into your cooler as they thaw out.
- Make sure to place everything right-side-up as you pack to be extra-sure that nothing accidentally opens or leaks in the cooler.
- Add a layer of ice cubes between each layer of food items. Dump a layer of ice cubes from a bag of ice on top of the frozen food items before you pack the next layer. Do this between each layer that you pack to keep your food colder for longer.[10]
- During your road trip, don't dump out any melted ice unless you are going to replace it with fresh ice. Even the melted ice water will help keep your food cold and fresh for longer.
- Put non-delicate refrigerated items in the middle of the cooler. Add all the items that you refrigerated that aren't in danger of being crushed for the next layer. This includes things like condiments, fruit in tupperware, deli meats, cheese, and thawed meat that you plan to eat that day.[11]
- Remember to top this layer off with another layer of ice cubes before you add the top layer of food.
- Place delicate items at the very top so they don't get crushed. Put items that might get crushed, such as eggs and bagged vegetables, at the very top so nothing heavy will be on them. Cover them with a final light layer of ice cubes.[12]
- The fuller your cooler is, the longer things will stay cold and fresh. If you have lots of empty spaces, then fill them up with ice cubes or use frozen or chilled beverages to fill in the gaps.
- You can also pack things that you want to be able to access easily, such as the first day's lunch, at the top.
- Use a separate cooler for beverages to keep your food cooler closed more. Pack beverages in a separate cooler so you don't have to open and close your food cooler to access them. The more your cooler's lid is open, the faster the ice will melt and your food will start to warm up.[13]
- If you absolutely can't use a second cooler, then pack a layer of beverages between the frozen food items and the next layer of food items, and leave a few beverages packed around the top of the cooler so you can pull them out quickly.

How to Do HIIT Training at Home Posted: 03 Sep 2020 09:00 AM PDT High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is a popular workout style where you alternate periods of vigorous exercise with short breaks. Unlike more specific workouts, like Tabata, HIIT offers a lot of freedom and versatility, depending on fitness level.[1] Thankfully, HIIT doesn't require any special equipment or instruction, and is easy to do from the comfort of your own home. After warming up, experiment with different workouts and see what works best for you! [Edit]Adding HIIT to Your Routine - Warm up before you start exercising. Don't jump straight into your HIIT workout—even if you're exercising at home, give yourself some time to adjust before jumping into the circuit. Start by doing 10-15 reps of leg swings, then work your way to side leg swings as well. To get your blood pumping, jump rope for a minute, then perform 10 reps of squats and 2 inchworms.[2]
- You can tweak this warm-up as needed. Remember, the goal is to help you transition to your HIIT workout, but you don't want to feel winded before you even begin!
- If you don't have a jump rope, do several reps of jumping jacks instead.
- Choose your favorite exercises for your HIIT routine. You can follow a pre-designed workout, or you can customize your workout. Pick out some exercises that you're pretty skilled with, so you can push yourself to the limit as you exercise. There's no right or wrong exercise—just pick activities where you can really push yourself, so you can get the most out of your HIIT workout.[3]
- For instance, jumping jacks, squats, push ups, and planks are all fair game for your workout.
- If you haven't worked out in a while, focus on exercises that will improve your flexibility, as well as less strenuous exercises like walking, riding a bike, or using a treadmill.[4]
- Pick a workout format that balances vigorous exercise and rest. HIIT involves raising your heart rate quickly with short, intense bursts of exercise split up break periods. Keep in mind that there's no set time limit or requirement for these intervals, so you can choose a format that works best for you. Think about your current fitness levels and what your body can handle—there's nothing wrong with building up to shorter rest periods as you develop more endurance.[5]
- For instance, if you're a beginner, you may want to exercise vigorously for 20 seconds, then rest with lighter exercise, like walking, for 2 minutes.[6]
- If you're a more seasoned athlete, you can try Tabata, a more intense form of HIIT. This involves 20 seconds of heavy exercise followed by 10 seconds of rest.
- Time your workouts so they're 20 minutes or less. Keep in mind that HIIT workouts are very intense, and are focused on getting your heart rate up. With this in mind, you shouldn't be doing this kind of workout for longer than 20 minutes. If you're a beginner, start out with a 4-5 minute circuit, then slowly work your way up in future workouts.[7]
- HIIT acts as a trade-off—while you don't have to exercise as long, your workout will be much more strenuous than a normal, 30-60 minute workout.
- Since these workouts are short, you can fit them in almost any time. You can try doing them in the morning or evening, or fit a quick workout into your lunch break.[8]
- Push yourself to the limit during your exercise circuits. Try not to scale down the intensity of your exercises, even if you're starting to get tired out. Do your best to put the max amount of effort into every portion of your workout. If you start to relax, you won't reap benefits of a usual HIIT workout.[9]
- If you find yourself getting winded easily, limit yourself to a shorter circuit.
- Limit yourself to 3-4 HIIT workouts each week. While HIIT exercise is a great way to burn fat, don't fit these workouts into your daily schedule. You don't want to risk injuring or overworking yourself, which will cancel out all the positive effects of your workout. Alternate your HIIT sessions by at least 1 day so your body has time to heal and recover.[10]
- Even master athletes don't do HIIT exercise every day!
- Cool down after you've finished your workout. Set aside a few minutes to stretch out your muscles before you call it quits. Start with a runner's lunge, where 1 leg is bent forward, and the other leg is extended straight behind. Additionally take some time to "release" certain parts of your body by rolling a tennis ball beneath your feet, hips, and glutes. To really stretch out your body, try the sleeping pigeon position, where you tuck 1 leg in front of your chest and extend the other straight behind. Lean forward over your tucked foot with your arms outstretched for several minutes to get a good cool down.[11]
- You can also try a dynamic lunge, where you pull and hold your back leg close to your glutes while your front leg is still bent forward.
[Edit]Trying Simple Workouts - Try out the P.A.U.L. method for a well-rounded workout. Note that the P.A.U.L. method stands for plyometric cardio, like jumping jacks; ab workouts, like crunches or blanks, upper body workouts, like push-ups, and lower body workouts, like lunges and squats. Draft a list of different exercises that fit into these 4 categories, then string them together into a HIIT circuit. Do each workout for 30 seconds, and then give yourself 30 seconds to catch your breath. Continue this workout until you've exercised for 10 minutes.[12]
- For instance, you can do jumping jacks for 30 seconds, crunches for 30 seconds, push-ups for 30 seconds, and then lunges for another 30 seconds. Once you finish this circuit, give yourself 30 seconds to rest.
- Monitor yourself with an interval timer so you remember when to switch activities and when to rest.
- You can mix and match with whatever exercises you prefer! You don't have to do a sequence of specific drills—what matters most is that you're pushing yourself as you work out.
- When you're doing a lunge, always be careful that your knee doesn't go past your toes. That will strain your knee, potentially leading to an injury, and it will make the exercise less effective in your quads and hips.[13]
- Focus on strength training with a series of tough exercises. Perform several exercises in a row, doing at least 10 reps for each activity. Alternate between jumping jacks, squats, incline push-ups, planks, and a single-leg glute bridge, then give yourself 30 seconds to catch your breath. Repeat this circuit several times to complete your HIIT workout![14]
- For instance, you can do 20 jumping jacks, 10 squats, 10 seconds of inclined push-ups, a 30-second plank, and 5 reps for each leg with the glute bridge.
- Opt for a running-based HIIT workout if you prefer cardio. Run for as fast as you can, timing yourself as you go. Allot yourself that same amount of time to walk, so you can catch your breath. Do 4 sets of this circuit, then settle down with easy, 10-minute job.[15]
- You can warm-up your body by running for 10 minutes before you start.
[Edit]Experimenting with Exercise Equipment - Perform some kettlebell exercises to help you burn fat. Start by swinging the kettlebell for 30 seconds with 1 arm, switching arms after each swing. After this, hold the kettlebell securely in 1 hand and "jerk" it above your head before bringing it back below your shoulder. Once the 15 seconds are up, grab the kettlebell and repeat the exercise with your opposite hand. To complete the circuit, clutch the kettlebell against your chest with both hands and squat for 30 seconds, keeping your back upright.[16]
- Perform this workout multiple times, if you feel up to it!
- Keep your knees bent and extended forward as you "jerk" the kettlebell upwards. Additionally, try to keep your heels planted on the ground to give yourself more support.[17]
- Alternate strength exercises with mountain climbers to get your blood pumping. Start with 1 minute of kettlebell swings, guiding the kettlebell from between your legs to the same level of your shoulders. Rest for 15 seconds, then do 30 seconds of mountain climbers before resting again. After this, do some decline push-ups for 1 minute before resting again. Do another set of 30-second mountain climbers and give yourself a moment to rest. Finish off the circuit with 1 minute of fire hydrants, followed by another set of mountain climbers.[18]
- Fire hydrants are a strength-building exercise where you lay on your hands and knees. Lift your bent leg and extend it to the side, holding it in place for several seconds. Go back to your original position and do the same with your opposite leg.
- You can opt for shorter circuits, if that's easier.
- Focus on cardio with a treadmill workout. Adjust your treadmill so you're at a 5% incline, then raise the speed to . Run for 1 minute to get heart rate up, and then turn your treadmill speed down to . Walk at this speed for 2 minutes before resetting back to the faster speed. Aim to do at least 6 repetitions of this exercise so you can get a full workout.[19]
- It may help to go for an easy, 5-minute jog as a way to both warm up and cool down.
- Time your workout and rest periods with an interval timer.[20]
- Customize premade workouts to better suit your fitness needs and goals. For instance, if you're focused on strength training, you can switch out jumping jacks for push-ups.
- Look online for equipment-based workouts, like battle ropes or biking.[21]
- To increase your stamina, eat a diet rich in protein and complex carbs.[22]
[Edit]Warnings - Don't overwork yourself! If you're new to HIIT, start with smaller workouts so you can build your endurance. You can always lengthen your workouts as you get more experienced!
