So I did a HIIT workout for an hour, and have just read that ideally it should end after half an hour max. What are your thoughts?

@VAH1979 A Tabata protocol can be done in 4 minutes. Add five for a warmup and three for a cool down, 12 minutes, done. Just make sure that during the Tabata you make your heart scream, get into the pain cave. That's plenty three times a week, perhaps twice if you are already fit.

Posted by SilviaParkI had my first triathlon in Sunday, an indoor USATri60. Lots of room for improvement, but I'm just a beginner swimmer, and haven't taken my bike on the road yet :)
