Well, March is here, so that is crazy. This weekend we are going on a super duper short, but much needed weekend getaway. While I will be doing 0 physical activity (to relax and because my knee is acting up), I know that many of you will be active. This 16 minute tabata workout can be done before you get in the shower for brunch or as a quickie after work on a weekday. All you need is yourself and an interval timer app.

Remember, tabata is high intensity interval training. The goal is to get your heart rate up and then let it come back down. Really push it during your ‘working’ time.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED:

interval timer (recommend GymBoss App but there are others)
