    Livvy - have you got a Heart Rate monitor? If you do a hard 30 min HITT session, continuing on with a brisk / gentle walk won't lessen your efforts. Though you will move down from 'fitness' training (generally anything above 80% of your HR maximum) into the 'fat burning' range (anywhere around the 60% - 79% of your HR maximum) you'll still be burning calories at a higher rate than if you didn't do the HITT session in the first place. Does that make sense?
    lol...uuum, no i don't have one. and that went *way* over my head! have never been a gym bunny or exercise fanatic, so am not really up to speed on all the lingo lol! so is lower heart rate better for fat burning? so like walking better for fat burning that doing intervals? or was it the other way around? sorry sorry sorry for being dim lol!

    oh and are they something that has a battery to be work on your person? if so i might have to pass on it as have a high magnetic field (i kid you not) and make all things with batteries (laptops, cellphones, watches etc) stop within about two months of meeting me... is very sad and rather annoying!
