Tabata is usually 20 seconds of high intensity exercise repeated 8 times with only 10 seconds rest in between or just enough time to get ready for the next exercise.

  • Warm up with light walking, gentle squats, or full body movements for 5 minutes.

  • Do some light stretches like toe touches, chest and back stretches for 3 minutes.

  • Start Tabata- Be sure to listen to your body and take breaks when you need to.

    • Cycle 1- High Knees

    • Cycle 2- Butt kicks

    • Cycle 3- Squats

    • Cycle 4- Lunges

    • Cycle 4- Leap side to side

    • Cycle 5- Push ups

    • Cycle 6- Star jumps

    • Cycle 7- Mountain climbers

    Take 1 minute rest and repeat if you need a longer workout or cool down and stretch after for 5-10 minutes. Remember you can change the intensity by adding or removing the jump part of an exercise. (ex: star jumps can be made easier by taking out the jump and doing heel raises)
