Exercise of the Day: 4-Exercise Tabata

It is absolutely gorgeous outside today and people all around here are just itching for pool season to start! You know what that means? Swimsuit season is upon us! Did you forget? Need to add a burst of calorie burning into your workouts to get ready? Try this tabata-style workout:

Exercise 1-Squat jumps. Do squat jumps as fast as you can for 20 seconds and then rest for ten seconds before Exercise 2.

Exercise 2-Squat thrusts (see pic below). Do squat thrusts as fast as you can for 20 seconds and then rest for ten seconds before Exercise 3.


Exercise 3-Mountain Climbers. Do mountain climbers as fast you can for 20 seconds and then rest for ten seconds before Exercise 4.

Exercise 4-Lateral Pushups. Do lateral pushups, alternating each side, for 20 seconds and then rest for ten seconds before returning to Exercise 1. Repeat the entire sequence again. This takes four minutes!

Enjoy and see you at the pool!!!
