Slightly tangential to HIIT vs LISS cardio on but TirzTom reminded me — does anyone have experience combining this with metformin?
I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.

This is exactly right. wanda_boise articulated what I have been trying to explain to my doctor for months. The HIIT vs LISS cardio on aspect is the most important factor.
