    I’ve been thinking about my plan for after this challenge ends, and I think I want to repeat the 2021 Build challenge. I was glancing through the ebook, and cardio calls for 3 HIIT sessions per week during that program. The cardio page in the Build challenge states that HIIT will help to preserve the muscles being built. However, it seems like in more recent challenges Nicole has shifted from HIIT to less intense cardio. So I’m wondering if to get best results, should I follow the HIIT cardio recommendations or should I follow the recent shift and stick to MISS/LISS cardio? I’m kind of thinking it’s not super important and the whole idea is to just do some form of cardio and get my body moving, but any advice would be appreciated! Thank you!!

    Hey there- this is such an individual factor, and it really depends on how your body responds to what. Give it a try and see how it feels and see how your body responds, then if you need to or want to make adjustments based on how your body is or isn’t responding based on what your goals are. Bets of luck 🙂
