Unfortunately, most of us are not blessed with a love for the gym. It’s a mundane stomping ground that we only frequent when making overly ambitious goals. Each time, we convince ourselves that we can enjoy the experience, only to be let down again and again.
So instead of going back there again, why don’t you try something more realistic and simple?

Why is it so effective?
Tabata is a High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), which alternates between intense exercises (e.g. jumping and squatting) to keep your heart rate up, but allow periods of rest to keep you going.
On top of that, here are some extra benefits compared to other workouts:
You'll burn more calories
After an intense workout like HIIT, your body will burn fuel like crazy.
You can do this anywhere without equipment
Life distractions won’t get in the way of your fitness.
You achieve new limits
The breaks you get are timed to give you the extra boost to reach new levels.
So it doesn’t matter if you have a tough week at work, or if you’re travelling, all those excuses you make for not going to the gym, don’t apply here.
