Low Intensity Steady State Conditioning. I call it HIIT’s friendly brother!
LISS is performed in the GREEN ZONE of your heart rate watch for longer periods of time, you should be able to hold a conversation throughout! So whilst you exert a low level of effort, you’re sustaining it for a long time.
The benefits of this exercise includes, fat burn especially if you can perform fasted, even better on a coffee as caffeine helps fat oxidation (means, using fat for fuel), low impact on your joints, improves blood flow and stamina and reduces the amount of impact on your joints! Good for any ankle/knee issues.
Keeping your HR between 60-80% for long period of time can burn up to the same amount if not more comparing to it’s hardcore brother!
