High-intensity interval training, HIIT for short, is one of the best kinds of sweat sessions if you're looking to get your heart rate up and work your muscles to their fullest capability in a short amount of time. Want to better your cardiovascular health? HIIT's for you. How about shedding fat? HIIT can also help with that. Tabata specifically is a type of HIIT you've probably heard of and, if not, should think about trying. It consists of 20-second maximum-effort intervals followed by 10 seconds of rest. This goes on typically eight times, or four minutes straight, before you move to the next circuit.
Not sure where to start? You don't even have to leave your home to reap the benefits of this fast, calorie-burning routine! Find an open space, roll out a mat if need be, and ready your water bottle and your good attitude. Ahead, you'll find videos you can follow along to. Some are traditional Tabata; others put their own twist on the Tabata style (for example, one Class FitSugar video includes "super Tabata" rounds where you work for 40 seconds instead of 20). The videos range between four and 45 minutes, and they feature moves to get your heart pumping and exercises to tone your muscles. Plus, browse through these Tabata apps afterward for more sweat sessions and timers specific to this type of workout.
