Title: Tabata vs. HIIT
Post by: tRouBLe on August 07, 2016, 07:52:32 PM
What are your opinions on tabata and/or high-intensity interval training?  Lately, I've been doing tabata workouts and I've really enjoyed them.

I try to do numbered sets too with tabata.  Hehehe.  It can be a hard and tiring workout at times, but very refreshing.  ;D

I tried tabata once, it was okay but if I was going to do drugs I'll only do drugs that I trust from that one guy.  It's hard to find good stuff but that one guy always comes thru.  You should know. ;)

I tried tabata and found that I sweat just as much as high-intensity interval training. I do tabata 3 times a week and weight training two times. My cheat day is on Saturday (but I keep my calories below 1500) and my rest day is on Sunday.

I am thinking of beginning a HITT workout and have never heard of Tabata before. I will research into it. Sounds like fun.

It's just doing each exercise for 20 sec and rest for 10 sec... Do at least 5-8 exercises in each round.

When I first started Tabata I only did 4 exercises (Push Up, Sumo Squat, Plank & Blurpee) for 5 rounds for a total of 10 minutes.
Now, I do 3 rounds of 8 exercises and none of the exercise are the same but I rest up to a minute after each round.

My friends and I call it circuit training.  Move from one station to the next.  I lost 30lbs in 3 months.  The fun part was kicking the thai bag to strengthen our shins.
