At Intense Health, we don't just focus on exercise—we focus on longevity, vitality, and maximising your quality of life as you age. That means keeping muscle.

Why Muscle is the Organ of Longevity

As we age, muscle mass naturally declines. However, preserving and building muscle is scientifically proven to be the single most important factor in maintaining a healthy, functional, and youthful body. From boosting metabolism and improving strength, to enhancing mental focus, flexibility, and even cardiovascular health, muscle plays a vital role in every aspect of your wellbeing.

Having more muscle empowers you to feel better, look better, and perform better—whether you’re tackling everyday tasks, excelling at work, or simply enjoying time with family and friends.

Here’s the truth: Muscle isn’t just for athletes or bodybuilders. It’s essential for every human being. And the good news? You can build and maintain muscle—without hours in the gym or risking injury.

Meet HIIST – Our Revolutionary High Intensity Strength Training System

With 26 years of experience in Exercise Science, Marcelo Mesquita has spent his career perfecting the art of muscle-building through research, hands-on training, and experimentation. Alongside his wife and co-founder Andréia Mesquita, he’s developed a scientifically-backed system that brings maximum results with minimum time—and delivers on every muscle-building benefit you need to age with strength.

Introducing HIIST (High Intensity Strength Training)—a progressive resistance training system designed to maximise your strength and muscle-building potential while preserving the health of your joints and ligaments. Using adaptive resistance technology, our 1-on-1 private training sessions ensure that every rep, every set, and every session is tailored to your specific strength curve, giving you the best possible results with minimal risk of injury.

HIIST isn’t just about lifting weights. It's about:

• Building muscle to prevent muscle loss, so you can maintain strength and function for life.
• Improving metabolic function, burning fat, and maintaining a healthy body composition.
• Boosting energy levels and improving mental clarity, so you can be more productive in all areas of life.
• Supporting hormonal health, keeping testosterone, growth hormones, and other key hormones at optimal levels.
• Strengthening bones to prevent bone density loss and conditions like osteoporosis—something no other form of exercise can do as effectively.
• Improving flexibility and joint health, all while preventing the wear-and-tear common in traditional training methods.

Our Approach: Maximum Results in Minimum Time

You don't have to spend hours in the gym to achieve your body recomposition goals. With HIIST, you can achieve transformational results in just 20 minutes, twice a week, with a personalised program that adjusts to your unique goals.

Our system includes:

• 1-on-1 training sessions, ensuring every movement you make is working for you.
• Nutrition education and coaching, to support your body’s muscle-building efforts with the right fuel.
• Continuous tracking and data-driven adjustments, so you always know how you're progressing and what you need to adjust to keep improving.

We don’t believe in wasting time or energy. Our HIIST training system is scientifically optimised to deliver muscle-building benefits without putting your joints at risk. This means you can safely achieve maximum strength, muscle growth, and fat loss—all while protecting your body for the long term.

The Benefits of Keeping and Building Muscle with HIIST:

• Increase Muscle Tone and Strength: Enjoy firmer skin, a stronger body, and more confidence as you watch your muscle tone and strength increase with every session.
• Boost Metabolism: The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn at rest. This makes it easier to maintain a healthy weight and improve your body composition.
• Higher Energy Levels: Feel more energised and productive throughout the day, as building muscle also increases your body’s capacity to handle stress and fatigue.
• Prevent Bone Loss: Low force, high intensity training is the best way to maintain strong, healthy bones as you age, preventing conditions like osteoporosis.
• Improve Mental Health: Muscle maintenance and growth are linked to increased mental focus, self-confidence, and overall psychological well-being.
• Enhance Cardiovascular Health: Strength training supports heart health by improving your heart and lungs' ability to function optimally and provide your body with the oxygen it needs.
• Reduce Pain: Our methods have been shown to alleviate joint pain, including the effects of conditions like arthritis and general wear-and-tear on the body.
