Tabata Workouts for One Week (No Equipment)

Here is one week of high intensity workout ideas for you to do at home. I believe that there really are no excuses why one cannot workout (unless physically unable to), because if you work efficiently and with a high intensity level, it does not take more than 10-20 minutes to have a great, effective workout.  The five exercises presented will take four minutes each with eight reps. You should try to work as fast/hard as you can in order to push yourself (20 seconds on with a ten seconds rest). 

Take a one minute break in between each exercise, so you can get water and take a breather, but make sure it doesn’t succeed two minutes otherwise you will lose your energy. If you need to modify something or make up your own exercise feel free to do so, because you do not need to follow this exact program.

In terms of a warm up, I hope that you stretch beforehand. I provided some ideas, but a warm up should at least be five minutes. Do not start these exercises without any warm up because you may be susceptible to an unnecessary injury.

These workouts should not take more than 30 minutes and can be performed at home without any equipment. Remember, you want to be able to push yourself so you can see results and become stronger and healthier. Make sure you use a tabata timer, so you know when to stop and start.
