Re: HIIT v LSD
I agree with Lesplease. Keep variety in your workout. Don't get stuck doing the same thing every time you workout. It's boring anyway 
Re: HIIT v LSD
Actually I find repetition more of a challenge. Frankly, I've done things like new workouts before and sometimes spending ages working out the night before, what you're going to do, then getting in the Gym and trying to remember stuff, or looking at a crib sheet, and having to get used to it, is a pain in the butt, and ends up taking longer.
Going in there, and doing pretty much the same thing every time, means you know it pretty much inside out, you can get on and do it. The only problem then, is not being able to do some stuff in the right order every time, if someone else is using something when you want to.
Yeah I make a few small changes now and again, but nothing drastic.
Plus some people will get minor problems, if 3 months down the line they add one or two exercises back in. If you progress your lifts more by then, you don't know how good you're at on those exercises anymore, so you have to spend potentially as much as a session and a half, adding a little bit of weight, then increasing it set by set, to find your happy medium, just like you do with a weighted exercise you've never tried before.
All considerations, that might potentially increase workout time for a session or two, and I don't feel the need to do that. I don't find repetition boring, I find it challenging. If a workout makes you feel good afterwards or when you're doing it, there's no reason why it shouldn't, 6 months later, if it's a really good workout. A bit like someone enjoying eating Fish 3-4 times a week. If you like it, does Fish get boring after a month? No, unless you possibly buy a really bland cut every time, and don't season it.
However this is one of those "to each their own" situations, so approach is not something I think would be mentally or emotionally beneficial, for everyone who tried it.
Just point of view. Not tryign to sway things in any direction
