Tabata workouts

In an effort to inspire myself (haha), I have come up with a short list of tabata workouts for you guys to try with me! ;) Happy tabata!

WARNING: you should always warm up before any type of workout. Jogging in place or 25 jumping jacks are a good way to prepare your body for exercise. 

Squat Jumps
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times. Rest for 1 minute)
Mountain Climbers
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times. Rest for 1 minute)
Lunge Jumps
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times. Rest for 1 minute)
Mogul Jumps
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times then your DONE)
=20 minute workout

Push ups
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times. Rest for 1 minute)
Supermans
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times. Rest for 1 minute)
Downward dog push ups
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times. Rest for 1 minute)
V Ups
(20 seconds on, 10 seconds break…repeat 7 more times. Rest for 1 minute)
=20 minute workout

This next tabata set is a little different...

Jumping jacks for 20 seconds, rest 10...DO NOT repeat
Sit ups for 20 seconds, rest 10...DO NOT repeat
High knees for 20 seconds, rest 10...DO NOT repeat
Push ups for 20 seconds, rest 10...START FROM THE TOP.
repeat 1 time
=4 minute workout

I am in the process of coming up with more combinations as I continue to try different things that work for me. You can do any combination, as long as you are warming up before and taking it slow. What work outs work best for you?

  1. Do you have any weights at home? Like 10# weights? You could do "manmakers" they work your whole body out! and these are some pretty good Tabata workouts! Thanks for sharing!
