Tabata training was discovered by Dr. Izumi Tabata and a team of researchers from the National Institute of Fitness and Sports in Tokyo.
Dr. Tabata discovered a kind of interval training that produces a much better result than aerobic training. This included building as much muscular endurance as forty five minutes of normal cardio training. In fact in the study the subjects increased their anaerobic capacity by over a quarter as well a substantial increase in their aerobic fitness(VO2MAX).
The structure of the method:
20 sec high intensity.
10 sec rest
8 sets- total time 4 mins
Some of my favorites exercises to do this with are Kettlebell Swings, Push Press, and Push ups.
Try these your next workout to give your workout a boost. I know 4 mins doesn't sound very long but,
I promise by the third minute your muscles will be begging you to stop. It is Important to go hard and continuous during your working sets. Just breathe dig deep and GET EM!
