High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) may not be suitable for individuals with certain health conditions. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise regimen, especially if you have health concerns. They can provide personalized advice and determine whether HIIT is safe for you based on your medical history, current condition, and fitness level. Adjustments or alternative exercises may be recommended to ensure your safety and well-being.

It depends on the health condition and its severity. I’ve found that, with certain conditions, adapting HIIT to be lower impact or less intense can still provide benefits. For example, if you have joint issues, you might use low-impact exercises like cycling or swimming instead. Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting, to tailor the workouts to your needs safely.
