TABATA TRAINING
If you don’t know already, Tabata is a four minute session. Each Tabata has 8 intervals of which you exercise at a very high intensity for 20 seconds. After 20 seconds, you have 10 seconds to rest. Tabata is a form of high intensity training and one of the benefits of high intensity training is that it can boost your metabolism and heart rate up in a matter of seconds. Long distance running requires anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 in order to get your heart rate up. Not only that but you have to maintain that heart rate for the rest of the jog to get your body to burn fat.
- Pushups for intervals 1 and 3
- Body weight Squats for intervals 2 and 4
- Medicine ball slams for intervals 5 and 7
- Sprinting or jumping rope for intervals 6 and 8
- Barbell Squats (intervals 1,3)
- Pushups (intervals 2,5)
- Chin ups (intervals 4,6)
- Sprinting in place (intervals 7,8)
- Equipment needed: Barbell with weights, surface mat for pushups and a chin up bar
