Eight intervals of one exercise must be completed before moving on to the next. Sound easy? Not! This is “High-intensity” and not for the weak at heart.
This cardio interval training method is an intense and quick workout routine but very effective. The entire exercise lasts only about 4 minutes if you do it correctly. The rest period can be complete rest or a less intense pace.
It is a great way to get a very intense workout in a very short period of time. I’m sure you’ll feel like twenty seconds has never felt so long, 10 seconds never so short and four minutes never so painful!
One of the hardest aspects of doing a Tabata workout is staying focused for the whole four minutes. It only takes 6 to 8 very hard 20 second intervals with 10 second rest periods to substantially improve both your aerobic and anaerobic capacity.
You can use this protocol with many exercises: pushups, sit-ups, pull-ups, squats, you name it. If time is an issue, then try this next time you are at home, outside or in the gym.
