I tried it for the first time and on the treadmill, (I dont run) after about 12 mins, I was destroyed, couldn't walk
did about 6 min on the stepper and then 1 1/2 min (all I had left in me)on the bike

Now normally I am on the bike for about 25 min and then 25 min on the stepper, but yesterday that Hiit thing really did HIT the spot, I was huffing and puffing when I was done.
just sharing my experince, if you havent tried HIIT, give it a go
I was out of the gym in less then an hour, including some tine in the sauna.

It is grueling, isn't it! But you know you are getting one good workout in!! You did better than me!
