Default HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training)

Hi There,
I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience with this. My understanding from what I've read is that you can lose more fat using this method then others. I currently am doing a 30 min circuit at the gym (5-7 days per week) a 20 min abs class 2-3 times per week. I have also been swimming 1.25-1.5km 3 times a week and doing Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred (Level 1, not everyday).
I have not been losing the fat as quickly as I would like. I know that I have gained muscle through my body composition tests, but I want that scale to go down. SIGNIFICANTLY .
They say you can do HIIT on a treadmill, but if you are doing 6 sec at high intensity, then 9 sec at low, my treadmill would never do that. It takes 3-4 seconds to speed up. I suppose I could do in on the rowing machine, or maybe when I start running outside.
Anyone have any experience with this? Effective or not?
