About this app

The Burn 2 Learn app has been designed to support the delivery of the Burn 2 Learn program –
a school based physical activity program for senior school students. Burn 2 Learn utilises the
science of High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) to improve students’ health, fitness, wellbeing
and academic performance, using short but effective workouts. The program includes a variety of
pre-designed HIIT workouts, including Gym HIIT, Sport HIIT, Hip Hop HIIT, Combat HIIT, Class
HIIT (which can be done inside a classroom), and a short option known as Quick HIIT for days
when there isn’t much time.
