After trying out one day with :10 on and :20 off on the erg, I've been moving around the cardio machines (elliptical one day, bike the next, etc). I'll try 1:00 on and :30 off next time I row. Do you still recommend 8 minutes for that? I have to admit.. 8 minutes of cardio deosn't sound like much, but it's work. That does make sense.

This is the stair climber that looks like a mini-escalator with real stairs. The most brutal piece of cardio equipment in the gym. When I'm doing the short sprints like you recommend here, I find the stationary bike to be easy. One last thing...have you heard of the Stubborn Fat Protocol? I created a small 3 page mini-course for readers of my blog: http://fitnessblackbook.com/low-body-fat-percentage/ It is a way to increase the HIIT fat burning window. Nice site b the way!

I especially like the erg because it's fluid and we're getting the movement from our most often neglected posterior musculature. However timing can be a little difficult with the erg because each revolution is so large. If ever I'm using the erg for HIIT it is usually within a circuit with larger intervals. Say 1:00 on and :30 off, as opposed to :20 on :10 off. Hope that makes sense. This routine can be adapted to any piece of cardio equipment really.

I'm not sure how many strokes I'm likely to get in in 10 seconds. I know that you’re a big fan of the elliptical trainer for this routine, but can it be adapted to the erg rower (my personal fave)?
