3-4 min warm up
8-10 rounds of sprints (so 4-5 minutes)
5 min cooldown

and if you find yourself getting better at it, increase the difficulty of the sprints, or add in a few extra rounds, or perhaps increase the sprint time (maybe opt for a 30/15 set up)

make sense?
Yeah, thanks. I think I am understanding it better. Did my first full one last night @ 8 cycles (4 mins) x 8 rounds, and a cool off (which was really just me slouched over the stationary bike, gasping, nay...praying ). My lungs were on fire, so I think I'll stay put w/those specs for a bit.

I'll definitely be incorporating that bi-weekly.
