Tabata Workout
You can incorporate this Tabata workout into TONING WEEK, aiming to complete it twice this week for maximum benefits. Scroll down to find the video.
Tabata training involves 20 seconds of high-intensity exercises followed by 10 seconds of rest, making it an ideal form of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) to supercharge your fat burning.
The workout will focus on various jumping exercises, designed to elevate your heart rate and challenge your muscles. If you are a beginner or have any knee, back, or ankle issues, don’t worry, I will provide modifications throughout the session. For those seeking an extra challenge, you can follow along with Armin in the video.

Advantages of High-Intensity Session
One of the primary advantages of a high-intensity session like Tabata is the increased demand for oxygen during the intense intervals. This results in more oxygen being taken in during the recovery periods compared to less intense exercises. The after-burn effect from this workout means you’ll continue to burn fat even after you’ve finished exercising. Additionally, high-intensity workouts save you time, as the short intervals make the overall exercise session much shorter than traditional cardio sessions.
