High Intensity Interval Training can be done absolutely anywhere even when cycling or biking. If you cannot afford to go to gym for your regular training exercises then you can do exercise at home also. One of the most common gym equipment that can be found at almost any home is either a treadmill or a cycle.

In fact, if you do not have a gym cycle then you can do the same exercises on a regular bicycle. It is versatile enough to be done on any kind of equipment. The idea behind intervals is alternating between high and low intensity workouts in fixed intervals of time.

Although cycling and biking are good for health and fitness, it is only a basic exercise routine. If you want the maximum results out of your training regime then go for professionally structured workout routines like the P90X workout routine made by Tony Horton.

It is a complete exercise regime over a period of 60 days at least and with the exercises in the P90X workout routine you are sure to get maximum out of your gym days. If you are looking to lose weight and gain muscles which will stay with you for a long time then you do not need to look any further.

If you want to do an easy yet effective cycling workout then you should start by cycling at a comfortable pace first. Then when you are all warmed up, start speeding up and in a few seconds you should be at your top speed. Continue at this top speed for 2 minutes. Slow down to a normal speed but don’t stop cycling. Continue this for another 1 minute. Alternate between these speeds for 5-6 times at least.
