Full Body Tabata Blast

Today’s workout we’re going back to Tabata with this “Full Body Tabata Blast”! Tabata is a high-intensity workout protocol that has fitness and weight-loss benefits. For anyone with an overwhelming distaste for doing cardio, Tabata is a proven way to get your cardio out of the way in a hurry, but don’t confuse brevity with ease. With lactic acid building up and your lungs screaming for air, the program will tax you like few other cardio programs can. In addition to the aerobic and anaerobic benefits, Tabata training (and HIIT) both share one great advantage for those looking to hold onto muscle mass: unlike traditional steady-state cardio, high-intensity intervals help you build and maintain muscle mass because the fast-twitch fibers, which are most prone to growth, are best targeted by this type of training. But enough chat, let’s get our Tabata on! Happy sweating!
