Workout Wednesday-Tabata Calorie Burn

workout-of-the-week - ideas anyone?

I featured the Tabata protocol in a “Workout Wednesday” post a few months ago. 20 seconds maximum intensity activity followed by 10 seconds rest, repeated for 8 rounds total. The last Tabata workout I mentioned was geared towards the leg muscles.

This week’s Tabata workout is a high intensity cardio workout. There are 6 Tabata sets to this workout and each set takes 4 minutes. Going through all 6 sets takes 24 minutes total.

This workout also has an “isometric break” option  thrown in. After the first two Tabata sets you can try throwing in a static v-sit or an advanced bridge for 60 seconds before moving on.
