Workouts | Aug 05, 2013Home Workout Routine: Low-Impact HIIT Go hard (but stay soft on your joints) with this fast, fat-burning circuit 1 of 7Home Workout Routine: Low-Impact HIIT High-intensity interval training (HIIT) describes any workout that alternates between intense bursts of activity and fixed periods of less-intense activity or even complete rest. It is without question one of the most effective and efficient ways to burn fat and boost aerobic capacity, but what most people don’t realize is that it doesn’t have to be high impact. If you’re nursing an injury (or want to avoid ever doing so in the future), you can still reap the fat-burning, metabolism-boosting benefits of HIIT.This quick workout plan was designed to help you push to your max without pounding your joints. You don’t need a single piece of equipment or a lot of space (and you won’t be bothering your neighbors with loud, thumping jumps), so this “quiet cardio” routine is perfect for a hotel room or small apartment.

Tabata training was named after Izumi Tabata, Ph.D., a former researcher at Japan’s National Institute of Fitness and Sports. After I took my first Tabata inspired class I would have thought it was the Japanese word for water boarding or brussel sprouts. Though I wouldn’t exactly describe my first experience as pleasant, I did go back for more. Having not been familiar with Tabata prior to my first class, I wasn’t really sure what I was getting into, but my introduction came hard and fast.

Trending Now! Incorporate High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) into your weekly exercise regimen.Posted onMay 14, 2013byOMPT SpecialistsBy incorporating High Intensity Interval Training (HITT) into your weekly exercise sessions you will experience added health benefits. High Intensity Interval Training has proven to be effective in enhancing your weight loss and improving athletic performance. The HITT workout is defined as “a system of organizing cardio respiratory training which calls for repeated bouts of short duration, high-intensity exercise intervals intermingled with periods of lower intensity intervals of active recovery” (McCall 2009).What do the benefits include?When using HIIT you are training your body to be more efficient in using energy from the anaerobic energy system because of the work-to-recovery intervals. Also this form of exercise can train the body to be more effective in removing metabolic waste from the muscles between the work intervals.

Why Tabata Fails | Turbulence Training Fat Loss – cbathletics

Why Tabata FailsBy Kate VidulichHigh intensity interval training (HIIT) has exploded onto the mainstream fitness scene, and is a prominent part of every intelligent person’s fat loss training program. With this increased exposure, it’s no wonder someone got a hold of the scientific research on interval training and spun it the wrong way.Thousands of trainees are using one particular type of interval training – without a clue what they’re really doing.Tabata Professor Izumi Tabata and friends in Japan created this 4-minute ultra intense protocol and tested it on his Olympic speed skating guinea pigs in 1996.Today’s version of Tabata in commercial gyms is far from the real deal. Tabata training requires “exhaustive intermittent training consisted of seven to eight sets of 20-s exercise at an intensity of about 170% of VO2max with a 10-s rest between each bout.” That quote is from the study itself (1).It’s time to dispel the myths right now…Can the real Tabata protocol please stand up? (Rap on).Why Tabata FailsMistake #1: You’re NOT doing TabataHands up if you’ve read the study? If you’re not a science fan, it’s like alien language

If you are like most of us, some days you are really crunched for time. Work, kids, meetings or other engagements have completely taken over your day, and your typical 45-60 minute gym session is just not happening. Does that mean you skip it all together?

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
