I wanted to get this one out before I forgot it because it really was a great workout and I can feel it slipping from my mind already. Obviously my impending 32nd birthday does mean my mind is slowing down.
Tabata is a high-energy interval workout designed to get your heart rate up and accomplish a hard workout in 8 minutes working hard for 20 seconds and 10 seconds rest. I typically combine an tabata-inspired style into my workout when I do it.
Warm-up
Same as usual. Run, jump rope and jacks to get the heart rate up followed by stretching and some squats and lunges to warm up the big muscle groups.
