20 Minute Tabata Cardio Workout

This is based on the Tabata method- 20 seconds intense cardio with 10 seconds rest. Set your Gymboss timer for 20/10 on auto, do 8 rounds of each, and expect massive calorie burn!

  1. 8 rounds Jump Rope with High Knees (4 minutes)
  2. 8 rounds Burpees (4 minutes)
  3. 8 rounds Jump Lunges (4 minutes)
  4. 8 rounds Long Jump forward and 2 jumps back (4 minutes)
  5. 8 rounds Jump Forward one leg, jump back other leg (4 minutes)
This is 20 minutes of intense workout. This should not be done everyday and don't do strength training during the same workout, unless you are a true bad ass!

Be sure to cool off properly, do your stretching exercises and finish off with an awesome Recovery Drink!

Let me know what you think, what you liked about it and what you found the most challenging. Happy workout! :)
