High Intensity Training Unlike H.I.I.T. which is interval training, H.I.S.T. (High Intensity Strength Training) is putting all your effort into one set to complete failure. Once you've completed the set and feel you're ready for a second set, then you must have held back and not gone all-out during the first set to absolute failure... which requires complete exhaustion of the muscles on the concentric and eccentric contractions!
The workout is 50% - 75% warm up followed by 2-5 minutes to perform one set. It's similar to a sprinter vs. a marathon runner, you perform a short explosive workout with the maximum weight you can safely push or pull. For the past 20 years I've been utilizing numerous variations of H.I.T. for my personal workouts. Depending on my client's objectives and physical abilities, many of them have progressed to H.I.T. style workouts as well.
