Interval training is here, and tabatas are the name of the game in today’s workout.
HIIT, or High Intensity Interval Training, is a great way to get your daily cardio in while also incorporating a large variety of different movement patterns. If you’re looking to get your heart rate pumping without having to pound the pavement on a run, I’ve got just the solution for you. That solution is something I like to call tabatas. Tabatas are a subcategory of HIIT workouts that are always 20 seconds of hard work followed by 10 seconds of recovery. The key to getting the most out of this workout is to give your maximum effort during those 20 seconds. Every round should be a challenge, especially those last few, so that’s why there’s a full minute of recovery between each set. You ready to put your game face on? Let’s go! Today’s focus: Tabatas Warm up: Bodyweight 30 seconds each: butt kickers, high knees, leg swings (each side), lateral leg swings (each side), air squats, and reverse lunges. HIIT SET 1 (Complete 4 times through) 20 seconds side ski plank* 10 seconds recovery 20 seconds squat jumps 10 seconds recovery —————————— 60 seconds recovery HIIT SET 2 (Complete 4 times through) 20 seconds burpees 10 seconds recovery 20 seconds renegade rows (dumbbell) 10 seconds recovery —————————— 60 seconds recovery HIIT SET 3 (Complete 4 times through) 20 seconds marching plank† 10 seconds recovery 20 seconds high knees 10 seconds recovery —————————— 60 seconds recovery HIIT SET 4 (Complete 4 times through) 20 seconds mountain climbers 10 seconds recovery 20 seconds jump lunges 10 seconds recovery —————————— Cool down: 3–5 minutes of your choice HIIT is not for the faint of heart, and tabatas are no exception. I hope you enjoyed the challenge and are ready to try it again. Keep your eyes out for our upcoming HIIT workouts, and in the meantime, you can stay busy with our other workouts! Good luck and stay fit!
