Can you really get an effective Fat Burning Workout in only 15 minutes? You bet your abs you can!
Maximize every second of your precious time with this simple plan that's as effective as most hour-long training sessions.
The secret is that it combines two proven fat burning techniques—metabolic strength training and Tabata training—into one super-focused workout.
Check out these 10 new Fat Burning Tabata workouts too in our app.
First, you'll work every major muscle group to fatigue with a 10-minute strength circuit, and then you'll finish with the "Tabata top-off," alternating between 20 seconds of maximum intensity and 10 seconds of rest, 8 times. (That's how the Tabata training interval formula works, FYI.) There are two different exercises in the Tabata portion so you'll alternate for every set, meaning you'll do 4 sets of each move (8 sets total). (Since you're probably wondering: Here's the difference between Tabata and HIIT.)
How it works: After the 1-minute warm-up, do each strength exercise back to back, performing as many reps as possible (AMRAP) in 1 minute.
Perform the full circuit twice, and then move on to the Tabata top off.
Perform the first exercise at maximum intensity for 20 seconds, rest for 10 seconds, then move on to the second exercise and repeat. Do 8 Tabatas (20 seconds on, 10 seconds off) total, alternating between the two moves for each set.
Total Time: up to 15 minutes
