This workout involves alternating a cardiovascular exercise with a resistance training exercise. It delivers a lot of benefits in a short amount of time – a high calorie burn, improving your fitness and improving your muscle strength and tone. Tabata training is a type of interval training where you exercise for twenty seconds and then rest for ten. You repeat this eight times, which will take you 4 minutes. This is one round of Tabata; however, in the workout below you are alternating two exercises in each round of Tabata, rather than just the one exercise 8 times.
Total time: 19 minutes
Tabata Round 1: burpees / deadlifts
1 minute rest
Tabata Round 2: squat & medicine ball press / dumbbell depth push up
1 minute rest
Tabata Round 3: bounce-bounce-squat / barbell under-arm bent over row
1 minute rest
Tabata Round 4: alternating lunges with bicep curl / bench dips
All finished! Don’t forget to stretch and rehydrate!
