Now, one of the main reasons that people give for not doing more exercise is "lack of time". It certainly used to be my excuse. That is why I am a fan of high intensity interval training (HIIT). I first came across this form of exercise when I was making a film, The Truth About Exercise, for the BBC science series Horizon.
