Tabata Protocol

The Tabata Protocol is a high-intensity interval training method developed by Dr. Izumi Tabata. It consists of short bursts of intense exercise followed by brief rest periods. Typically, a workout involves 20 seconds of maximum effort exercise (like sprinting or cycling) followed by 10 seconds of rest, repeated for a total of 4 minutes. This format enhances both aerobic (endurance) and anaerobic (strength) fitness, making it efficient for burning fat and building muscle in a short time. It’s a popular choice for those looking to improve their fitness quickly without spending hours in the gym.
