More good news for those of us short on workout time: A new study shows that Tabata definitely lives up to its reputation as a 4-minute fat-burning miracle workout.In the study, participants performed 20 seconds of bodyweight squat jumps, then rested 10 seconds. They repeated this sequence eight times for a total of 4 minutes and ended up blasting away an average 13.5 calories per minute (some participants burned even more!) and doubling their metabolic rates for at least 30 minutes afterward.“This particular style of interval training has profound effects even on short-term post-exercise metabolism,” says lead researcher Michele Olson, Ph.D., principle researcher at the Auburn University Montgomery Kinesiology Laboratory. “It would take five times the amount of typical cardio exercise to shed the same number of calories you can in a four-minute Tabata.”The important thing to note about Tabata is the intensity factor. We’re not talking four minutes of brisk walking: You better be going “all out” in order to reap these amazing benefits
