Stack 52 HIIT Interval Workout Game. Designed by Military Fitness Expert. Video Instructions Included. Bodyweight Exercises, No Equipment Needed. Fun and Motivating Training Program.

I've never personally been a fan of using cards to determine a workout, although I do see the value it adds... Some much needed fun in the way of playing a game! This is exactly what HIIT The Game By Stack 52 brings to the table (or gym if you like).HIIT as I'm sure you'll already be aware stands for high intensity interval training. If you're unfamiliar with HIIT, I'll briefly sum it up for you... The idea is that you complete intense bursts of exercise at maximum effort in short intervals, followed by a rest interval. For example, 40 seconds of work, followed by 20 seconds of rest, then repeat. Studies have shown HIIT to be very effective in burning fat, muscle development and improving overall fitness levels.Some personal trainers have for a long time, used playing cards to add some fun to workouts. A certain card is associated with a certain exercise, meaning your workout is built on the cards you pull. Stack 52 have stepped up by creating a card game to meet this very need which incorporates bodyweight exercises into a pretty interesting card game.Included in the box is a huge stack of exercise cards each containing a bodyweight exercise. Each of the exercise cards have a name, photo, description, points value and a code in which you can scan for an exercise demonstration video, pretty cool ehh? There's also 2 dice, a set of interval cards, draw cards and strategy cards included. This game would be ideal to take on the road as the box is pretty small and of course, no equipment is needed!Playing the game is pretty straight forward with no complicated rules that some card games like to introduce. You can view some rules on the Stack 52 website or even use the cards and make up your own rules. Roll the dice to determine the number of rounds you'll complete, deal a draw card for the number of exercises per round, pull an interval card, draw the exercise cards and finally... GET IT DONE! No real learning curve, it's very much pick up and play.Don't think for one minute that this makes for an easy workout! As long as you really push yourself, it's very much the opposite! In all honesty, it really does make your HIIT session pretty fun. Adding a points system and playing with a friend or group adds some friendly competition to the mix... If you're working out solo, keep your scores and try to better them! Don't forget to include the strategy cards for some punishing (or rewarding) twists.PRODUCT WAS PURCHASED AND REVIEWED.

Really fun game that gets you doing some HIIT cardio workouts, it's ideal for people with a competitive nature to get a good cardio workout while challenging your friends. The exercise selection is good and if you do some of the higher timed intervals and pick a lot of exercise cards you can get a good workout.

Bought this game for my boyfriend, who is in the process of becoming a personal trainer, and so loves the gym. So far we have used this game as a warm up, and on days when we can't get to the gym. It's fun and easy to understand, great product!

I'm really enjoying this game! The workouts are always a surprise in content and duration. It is well thought out with ample resource to cover everything you need. I'm not using the extra cards for swapping or power up. But they're there if you feel like a change. Highly recommended and clever.

Absolutely love it, it was a considered purchase as it is quite expensive IMO but we absolutely love it and it has been worth every penny. It has definitely put the fun into exercise as I play with my husband and we are very competitive so we really fight against each other to get the best score. It is also good fun on your own, you know what you have to do and every day is different. The cards are easy to read and the free downloadable app makes timing easy. We have also found we can use other Stack 52 cards with it too and have just added our own points to each exercise.

It was actually a present for my brother and he loved it.

Good

Good quality cards with an excellent variety of exercises. I was however disappointed to find that the 2 packs of exercise cards are identical so you only get 52 exercises to choose from.

This makes for a fun and challenging workout

We haven’t played yet. But looking forward to playing all exercises look as though the can be modified for those with health issues who may not be able to do it the exact way on the card. Not sure why people commented about a time as the interval cards you draw can have any number on it. Most people have a cell phone that controls the timer. Or they have a echo dot, or other smart device including perhaps a fitness watch all of which have a time. You can get detailed instructions online by watching a video or you can physically read them which is fantastic. I’m sure our household is not the only household in which some learn better by watching and some learn better by reading and some learn better doing both. I learn best using both methods. Some learn better just by doing. So to me the game is completely intact, came earlier than expected. We are all excited to figure out a day that’s best for everyone to play. My situation makes it a little tricky as I have stage 4 mantle cell lymphoma. Third cancer since I was 13. This cancer is different though currently treatable however incurable, however my treatment options are limited due to the complicated Heath history and other factors. I have started a donation project to help others who are newly diagnosed and about to undergo treatment. If you would like to help please purchase anything from my wish list that says donations for newly diagnosed people. Pass the word along thank you so much for your time. I hope if you order this game for your family it will bring you closer as a family well having fun and everyone gets fit at the same time. If you would like to email me please do at [email protected]. I look forward to hearing how others like the game. If you need more details about my cancer donation project I’m happy to answer. Also I do accept Amazon gift cards, direct donations from my list, as well as item I need to purchase separately for the donation bags. I’m trying to cover all age groups if you have more ideas let me k ow those too. Also to the company of this game it would be wonderful if you have a game similar without the need for resistance bands you are willing to donate to my project. I’m not a registered charity but I will do my best to take a photo of anyone willing and on my Amazon page start a blog to show you the people who benefit from the generosity of others. I included it in my review as it was so encouraging to purchase something I can do.with my family.

È un gioco che mi piace. Lo uso per fare brevi allenamenti cardio con resistenza muscolare a corpo libero. Si può giocare anche con un amico. Ci sono tutti gli esercizi necessari per un buon allenamento total body. Un po' costoso.

Regalo perfecto para una maestra creativa de EF.

Le jeu en tant que tel est une excellente idée. Il permet de rendre la pratique du HIIT plus ludique, de la partager entre amis, de trouver facilement l'inspiration pour varier les séances... Les cartes sont de bonne qualité et sont plutôt bien pensées. Par contre, il est nécessaire de comprendre un peu l'anglais (rien de bien compliqué, mais vous pourriez être perdu(e) si vous ne comprenez pas du tout cette langue).Sur un premier exemplaire, j'ai malheureusement eu une carte manquante. Le service client a été extrêmement réactif, compréhensif et efficace. Ils m'ont renvoyé un autre jeu pour résoudre le problème. J'ai rarement eu affaire à un service client aussi qualitatif.Donc bravo à la fois pour le produit et pour le service. Et plus, Stack52 propose encore d'autres cartes thématiques pour élargir les sources d'inspiration (déjà bien alimentée avec les carte du jeu) !
