Learn more about tabata

Tabata is a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout that alternates between short bursts of intense exercise and brief rest periods. The method was developed by Dr. Izumi Tabata and his team at the National Institute of Fitness and Sports in Japan. A typical Tabata workout involves 20 seconds of maximum effort exercise, followed by 10 seconds of rest, repeated for a total of 4 minutes per exercise (8 rounds). This approach pushes the body to work at peak capacity, helping to improve cardiovascular fitness, burn fat, and increase endurance in a short amount of time. Tabata can be applied to various exercises like squats, push-ups, burpees, or cycling. Its intensity makes it a time-efficient workout, often completed in as little as 20–30 minutes, making it a popular choice for people with busy schedules looking to maximize their training.
