BODYWEIGHT WORKOUTS

Body weight exercises are great when you are short on time, space, and equipment!

Tabatas

A tabata is 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest. You go back and forth between two exercises for 4 sets of each. After your fourth round, take a minute rest and start the next two exercises. Start at “station 1” and work your way through “station 4.” The idea is to go all out and really challenge yourself (at an appropriate level- you are the CEO of your own body) for the 20 seconds of work. If you are looking for an app that keep track of your time Seconds Pro and Interval Timer are good ones.
