[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The goal is to understand the underlying reasons for the shift in demand from physical devices to digital-only options, then develop a strategy to adapt.

*Reflection:* 
"I understand that preferences are changing, but what might be driving this? Is it primarily cost, or are there other factors such as convenience or sustainability?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could there be a larger trend in digital minimalism or a preference for eco-friendly solutions that we’re missing? What unseen motivations might explain this shift?"

**2.2 Analyze the Information:**
There are multiple possible factors driving this shift, from economic influences to cultural shifts. It’s essential to isolate each factor and understand its impact.

*Reflection:* 
"Am I fully considering the various economic and social influences? Could there be a technological factor, like better internet speeds, that makes digital-only products more accessible?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Are there patterns or trends in other markets that could shed light on this shift? Could this be part of a larger trend toward virtual experiences?"

**2.3 Generate Hypotheses:**
1. Customers prefer digital options due to lower costs. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.4)
2. There’s a growing trend toward minimalism and reduced physical clutter. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.7)

There have been many exposures in the media about the extreme effectiveness of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) due to the numerous health benefits from elevated levels of human growth hormone (HGH). Studies have shown that HGH can be increased as high as 771% following a high-intensity workout. Benefits of HGH include:

Reducing stress levels

Preventing disease

Achieving health and wellness goals more quickly

Increasing lean muscle mass

Minimizing the aging process

Enhancing energy levels

Improving fitness performance

Decreasing body fat

How does HIIT trigger HGH to increase? During HIIT you are utilizing your fast twitch muscle fibers, which when utilized, trigger the release of HGH. With that said, in today's fast-paced society, many individuals feel that they lack time to exercise.

Therefore, due to the growing body of evidence that HIIT is one of the most effective ways to workout, it's no wonder why it is quickly becoming one of the most popular forms of exercise. Likewise, there has been increased attention regarding the risk for the potentially fatal condition, rhabdomyolysis, which can be triggered by HIIT. This leaves you with a conflict of interest. What do you do?

What Is Rhabdo and How Can It Affect You?

First of all, what is rhabdomyolysis? Simply put, it is a condition where muscle injury occurs due to various risk factors that put additional stress on the body. In addition to the muscle injury, electrolyte imbalances, lack of Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) (energy transporter in cells), and increased calcium in muscle cells also contribute to the physiological response resulting in rhabdomyolysis.

When the muscles rupture, proteins leak into the body's system having the potential to cause several conditions, with kidney failure being the most prominent because the kidneys are unable to filter the surge of proteins that are released during injury. It is more common among untrained individuals. However, it can happen to anyone. Roughly 26,000 people/year fall victim to this in the U.S.

How Can You Avoid Rhabdo?

So how can you benefit from HIIT while avoiding the risk of rhabdo? It's always easier to prevent rhabdo from occurring versus having it and treating it. With that said, let's first understand what the science says about performing high-intensity exercise properly. Technically, you really only need to exert yourself at 80-100% effort for 20-30 seconds during a high-intensity interval.

It must then be followed by a 30-90 second recovery period (depending on how well you can recover) in order to completely be prepared for subsequent intervals and reap the benefits of the exercise.

Here Are Some Things to Keep in Mind When Considering HIIT

Be aware of any pre-existing conditions you might have that are considered to be additional risk factors for rhabdo, and always check with your healthcare provider before starting any program.

Do your research. Find an appropriate program to attend or implement on your own that emphasizes safety, several fitness levels, and proper recovery periods.

In addition to recovery, it is important that a program encourages taking breaks especially when you are just starting out to ensure that your muscles are getting adequate oxygenation. Lastly, make sure that your program maintains quality control of its coaches by requiring a foundational education or certification as well as their certification related to interval training.

Stay in tune with your body and your workout environment. Ensure that you are adequately hydrated and avoid HIIT in extreme hot or cold conditions.

Be a good manager of your recovery. Typically, it is recommended to do no more than 3 days of HIIT per week to ensure that there is adequate recovery time. However, strength training should be incorporated as it provides a vast array of benefits. Knowing your body and your capabilities is key. Be sure not to overdue it.
