Day 15

Wednesday destroyed my legs! I knew my boss had it in for me so I had to pace myself. Unfortunately for me todays workout was Tabata, high interval training that improves glucose metabolism and improved fat burning. Tabata, in my opinion, is more mentally exhausting than physically because you constantly have to prepare yourself for the 20 second set. I highly recommend jumping alternating lunges for anyone trying to develop explosive leg power. Too easy…then try it with dumbbells or a weight vest.

Set your timer for 8, 20 second intervals with 10 second rest periods in between. `
Go as hard as you can in the active phase. Enjoy!
