Interval Training - How Often?

[lleathamisa]

It seems you have several interval style DVD's - IMAX, Boot Camp - which workouts, if any would you classify as interval workouts? How many times per week should you do interval training? Is there a recommended period of rest between interval workouts? If so, how long and what exercises/programs would you suggest? I am looking to maximize the benefits of these workouts and prevent injury and burnout.

Thank you,

Not Cathe, but her interval workouts are as follows:

IMAX
IMAX 2
IMAX 3
Low Max.

Boot Camp is considered one of Cathe's more challenging circuit workouts using cardio and weights. Cathe usually recommends in her tapes that you do interval training usually no more than two times per week. I would take at least 48 hours between interval workouts.
