Metabolic Workout Benefits
Short, intense workouts can optimize hormone levels and trigger the afterburn effect, leading to calorie burn long after exercising. Focusing on total body workouts rather than isolated muscle groups enhances muscle growth and weight loss, especially for those over 40. Emphasizing variety and efficiency, these metabolic sessions provide a powerful alternative to traditional long cardio workouts.In this clip

For HIIT, I might do one exercise for 30 seconds, then rest, and then do the same or another exercise for 30 seconds before resting again. But with metabolic conditioning (metcon), do I do a chain of exercises for 30 seconds each and hold the rest until all exercises are complete?
Why are the rest periods only 30 seconds or 60 seconds in some programs when that feels like cardio with weights, while the guys always talk about 2-3 minute rests to build muscle?
