Here’s another quick and effective workout you can do at home. If you do it right, that’s where the effectiveness of the format comes in.
With only 4 minutes the key is with shorter time to workout, you have to put in some work!!
There are (8) 20 second rounds to complete in the 4 minutes.
You perform 20 seconds of the exercise given, then you follow the 20 seconds of with only 10 seconds of rest.
In your 20 seconds of work you have to push yourself and when I say push yourself I mean make yourself get out of your comfort zone.
To make this an effective work out not only do you have to push yourself in the 20 second window but you also want to stay on the timed ratios. What I mean by that, is go hard for 20 seconds, rest for 10 seconds and be ready to go right back at it for another 20 seconds.
I have provided both High and Low version videos of a Tabata routine.
The routine is as follows:
- 20 seconds Mtn climbers
- 10 seconds rest
- 20 seconds Side Step Squat
- 10 seconds rest
- 20 seconds DB Jabs
- 10 seconds rest
- 20 seconds Seated Reverse Crunch
- 10 seconds rest
REPEAT Back to the top!
If you don’t have dumbbells you can use water bottles and if you don’t have a step board you can use your chair for the mountain climbers and seated reverse crunches
