TIRED OF LONG CARDIO??? TRY THIS....

THIS IS A FORM OF SUPER HIGH INTERVAL TRAINING CALLED TABATA TRAINING, THAT ONLY LAST 16 MINS. ITS VERY INTENSE SO IF YOU HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE OR ASTHMA OR OTHER AILMENTS, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR. ALL YOU NEED IS YOU AND A CLOCK!!!

** WARM UP - 5 - 10 MINS****

1. JUMP ROPE x 20 SEC
2. REST x 10 SEC

REPEAT 8 TIMES = 4 MINS TOTAL

3. PUSH UPS W/ KNEES x 20 SEC
4. REST x 10 SEC

REPEAT 8 TIMES = 4 MINS TOTAL

5. BODY WEIGHT SQUATS x 20 SEC
6. REST x 10 SEC

REPEAT 8 TIMES = 4 MINS TOTAL

7. JUMPING JACKS x 20 SEC
8. REST x 10 SEC

REPEAT 8 TIMES....THEN COOL DOWN

***DON'T HAVE A JUMPROPE??? SUBSTITUTE BY RUNNING IN PLACE***

THIS BURNS A LOT OF CALORIES DURING AND DAYS AFTER ...IT TAXES YOU AEROBIC ( CARDIO) AND AEROBIC SYSTEMS ( WEIGHT TRAINING)....IT TONES ALSO AND IS GREAT FOR THE HEART!! DO THIS ON NON WEIGHT TRAINING DAYS....
