1. Why Choose HIIT at MK Fitness in Glendale?

At our Glendale location (3311 North Verdugo Road, Glendale 91208), we specialize in personal training in Glendale, CA — tailored sessions that work your body smarter, not just harder. HIIT is excellent for results because it:

  • Elevates your heart rate quickly, triggering “after-burn” calorie expenditure.

  • Combines upper-body, lower-body, and core work in one short session.

  • Fits into a busy Glendale lifestyle — you don’t need hours, just intention.

2. Workout Overview

Perform each move for 30 seconds, then rest for 15 seconds. Complete all three moves to finish one round. Repeat for 3 rounds (≈ 20 minutes including rest).

  1. Air Squats – Stand feet shoulder-width, brace your core, lower into the squat until knee height or below. Keep knees tracking over toes, chest lifted, then drive up through your feet.

  2. Push-Ups – Hands placed just outside chest, elbows at 45°, feet hip-width. Maintain a flat spine from head to heels, core tight, glutes engaged. Lower chest to floor, then push back up.

  3. Mountain Climbers – In a plank-position, hands under shoulders, feet hip-width. Alternate driving one knee toward your chest and extending the opposite leg—core braced, glutes squeezed, spine long.

3. Smart Training Tips for Glendale Residents

  • Warm up at our Glendale studio for 5-10 minutes before starting. A proper warm-up primes your nervous system and reduces injury risk.

  • Because HIIT is intense, limit to 1-2 sessions per week and complement with low-intensity workouts or recovery days. Overdoing it can cause fatigue or burnout.

  • Hydrate and refuel — living or working in Glendale means you might be on the go; bring a water bottle and a light post-workout snack.

  • As part of your personal training program at MK Fitness, we’ll track your results over time to ensure every session is aligned with your goals.
