So what is this new TABATA thing?

TABATA protocol is a new way to train for great anaerobic and aerobic improvements in your body.

It consists of 20 seconds high intensity exercises followed by only 10 second long break periods.

It really kicks your you know what in less than 10 minutes.

If you do 8 sets of 20 sec / 10 sec protocol it only takes 4 minutes to complete.

We usually use 2 sets of it so we pretty much make our client curse our names in 8 minutes.

It is quick effective way of working out. However, it’s very very intense. We would not recommend it to a beginers.

It can easily raise your Heart Rate up to 180-190 bmp which could be harmful for someone who is out of shape.

You could use all kind of exercises using Tabata protocol. The best thing about it is you don’t have to use complicated gym equipment. You could simply use your own body weight as a resistance (eg, push-ups, squats, lunges, pull-ups) and get great benefits of this type of workout.

We are going to implement this great method of training in our “GET UP AND TRAIN” program on our website.

Let us know if you have any question about it and if you are willing to try it.

Have a great healthy day!
