What’s the best protocol for fat loss? Well, it may just be tabata.Tabata is a high intensity training protocol, named after its creator; Dr. Izumi Tabata is a Japanese researcher who conducted a study on elite athletes and found their fitness levels improved by 28% when they performed the prescribed protocol of 20 second intervals of high intensity followed by 10 seconds of rest for a total of eight rounds, equaling four minutes in duration.The key to Tabata protocol is to put forth maximal effort for each 20-second interval. Keep in mind there’s a big difference between maximal effort and an increase in effort, so if you want to blast fat make sure you give it your all!Why Tabata Protocol WorksPerforming steady state cardio and maintaining the same moderate intensity level throughout an entire workout for 30-60 minutes burns calories while you’re in motion.
