Tabata Training For Lean Muscle Gains And Muscle Density For Women

How To Do Tabata Training

Setting up a Tabata Training Workout

What you want to do is the most reps you can of a particular exercise in 20 seconds. We'll use dumbbell thrusts. It helps if you have a clock with a second hand that you can see clearly.

You want to be able to look at the clock while doing the exercise. Or I would suggest making a small investment in a Gymboss timer.

If possible have someone time you and count your reps. This will help you with your concentration on what your doing especially as you start to tire.

Start out with light weights this is not bodybuilding and pay close attention to exercise form especially as you begin to tire to prevent injury. Remember the key to burning off that body fat is raising your metabolism.

I would advise trying Tabata Training once or twice a week (depending on your conditioning level) to start with.

Your aiming to do 8 sets, once you can do 8-10 reps on your last set add a little weight or another session per week to increase intensity.
