Vol. 5, Issue 1 January 2014 Kroc Center News TABATA WHO? TABATA YOU! Tabata is a form of high intensity interval training that can offer more health benefits in a shorter period of time than traditional cardiovascular exercise. It’s efficient and can fit in almost anyone’s busy schedule to boost your metabolism and heart rate up in a matter of seconds. Instead of hours of working out, Tabata can be completed in four minute segments totaling 30-45 minutes. However, it’s important to remember, warming up your muscles is vital to reducing the risk of injury so always make sure you warm up for 5-7 minutes before starting this intense workout if you try this outside of classes. Founded by a Japanese scientist named Izumi Tabata and fellow colleagues in Japan, Tabata has been proven to provide a greater impact and better results in less time than traditional cardio workouts. At the Kroc Center Tabata training will take different forms, however the basic outline of the Tabata training method is: 20 seconds of intense training + 10 seconds of rest, repeated 4 times = 1 round A class can consist of 8 to 15 rounds (2 minutes per round) depending on the class Modifications can be done for any fitness level so you don’t have to be a fitness guru to attend these classes Tabata training will raise your metabolism and heart rate up quicker than jogging and because you perform these exercises at a very high intensity, your body has to work much harder to keep up.

TabaTa Who? TabaTa YoU!

Tabata is a form of high intensity interval training that can offer more health benefits in a shorter period of time than traditional cardiovascular exercise. It’s efficient and can fit in almost anyone’s busy schedule to boost your metabolism and heart rate up in a matter of seconds. Instead of hours of working out, Tabata can be completed in four minute segments totaling 30-45 minutes. However, it’s important to remember, warming up your muscles is vital to reducing the risk of injury so always make sure you warm up for 5-7 minutes before starting this intense workout if you try this outside of classes.

Founded by a Japanese scientist named Izumi Tabata and fellow colleagues in Japan, Tabata has been proven to provide a greater impact and better results in less time than traditional cardio workouts.

At the Kroc Center Tabata training will take different forms, however the basic outline of the Tabata training method is:• 20 seconds of

intense training + 10 seconds of rest, repeated 4 times = 1 round

• A class can consist of 8 to 15 rounds (2 minutes per round) depending on the class

•Modifications can be done for any fitness level so you don’t have to be a fitness guru to attend these classes

Tabata training will raise your metabolism and heart rate up quicker than jogging and because you perform these exercises at a very high intensity, your body has to work much harder to keep up. This causes your heart to pump faster and your metabolism to rise; which you want if you are planning on losing fat.

Tabata training allows you to accomplish more in less time. The instructors at the Kroc Center have varied exercises in the Tabata training workouts to keep them fresh and make them fun. For information about Tabata sessions starting now see the sidebar at left.
