Does the speed at which you do the reps make a difference? In the book you say the movement should be quite slow, but i'm thinking that - to get the heart rate up - it should be quite fast? am i wrong? Also, to hit failure, I need to use quite heavy weights, so a 30 second rest doesn't seem like enough and i'm worried about injury. should i lessen the weights? thanks Davinda So does that mean that I do a set of 10 reps, have a rest, do another 10, have a rest etc?

Working in the intervals optimized heart health, calories burned during the session and then calories burned AFTER the session for up to 38 hours.

Can you explain to me exactly what you mean by 'interval strength training'? thanks Davinda Hi Jim,
