We have talked with 4 athletes who mention LISS.
Daniel Zagorski (male, 21)
How I Balance My Day Job with Training Six times a Week I work out six times a week. Each of my gym sessions would last between an hour to an hour and a half. On top of that, I would do cardio before and after each gym session (a combination of HIIT and LISS).
Monique Kabel (female, 37)
How I Quit My Career to Become an Elite Pro Trainer and Sports Nutrition Specialist A typical day of training for me begins with anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes of fasted cardio. Depending on the day I will either perform HIIT or LISS cardio on the treadmill and stair mill. I split the cardio equipment up so that I don’t get bored!
Nick Staro (male, 26)
How I Came Back Strong after a Motorcycle Accident and Placed 2nd in Mr. Hellas The type of cardio depends on my current goal, if I am trying to burn fat it will be 30-60 minutes of LISS or 20-30 minutes of HIIT. If I am trying to lose fat faster, I am doing both on the same day. I use the stationary bike in my house and the treadmill when I am at the gym.
Easton Elliott (male, 25)
How I Stopped Smoking 35 Cigarettes a Day, Became a Personal Trainer and Got Really Fit I find LISS (low intensive steady state) works for the best for me. I aim to complete 30 minutes of cardio a day.
