Ready for this? HIIT is good because the intense exercise causes you to
create more fat-burning enzymes in your muscles. It turns you into a
"better butter burner." It's not so much how many more calories you
expend but rather the way you change your metabolism at a cellular level.

They have zero of that "enzyme."
