Progression blocks typically last 2, 4 weeks; adjust based on readiness, not just time. If technique falters or fatigue rises, delay increases and prioritize recovery.

Most people spend about 2, 4 weeks in a progression block when upping HIIT intensity. Start small, boost work-interval duration by 15, 30 seconds or increase effort by 5, 10% each block, then reassess. For beginners, aim 2 weeks per block; for intermediate, 3, 4 weeks. Include a lighter week if you notice persistent fatigue or performance dips.
