High Intensity Interval Training - HIIT Training is a great way to challenge yourself mentally and physically. The main benefits are accelerated Fat Loss and Cardiovascular Health improvements.
Tabata - A Tabata is a variation of HIIT. During each "Tabata" is 8 rounds of 20 seconds of WORK and 10 seconds of REST.
Work Interval - This is a 20 second WORK interval, get as many reps in as you can and get ready for the next one.
REST - In this workout there is a short rest and a long rest. The short rest (10 seconds) is enough to shake your arms and leg but that is about it. The longer rest (3 minutes) will be enough to get your heart rate lower but not to your resting level.
