What BPM is best for HIIT?

135 to 150 BPM works for most routines. You want tempo fast enough to drive explosive effort but not so fast that form breaks down.

Can the music match my interval timer?

Yes. Tell Meloro your work and rest durations and it will structure intensity shifts to match your timer exactly.

Should the music have vocals?

Short, punchy vocal hooks work well. Avoid long verses that distract from counting reps or watching form.

HIIT demands music that choreographs your intervals. The drop lands when the timer hits work, the tension releases on rest. Meloro can structure a 30-minute track with built-in rhythm shifts every 60 seconds, matching a standard 40/20 Tabata protocol. Aim for 135 to 150 BPM so heart rate stays in the anaerobic zone.
