Fashion experiment: do Tabata
 I am one of those active girls who have no time for all of their vital interests. Traveling, reading, sports, cycling, journalism, education of the child, social networks, going shopping, watching your favorite TV series, going to the theater, meeting with friends - all this you can catch just something sacrificing. At this stage, the victim of this for me was playing sports, namely trips to the gym and to collective Pilates workout that week consuming more than four hours. But to give up sports altogether would be too blasphemous. It has done so much to gain toned shape and maintain it now, I decided to help plan Tabata, who takes all (you would not believe!) 4 minutes a day. But you would know what it is 4 minutes!

Tabata is a really short but very intensive sports training. It was named in honor of its author - Japanese scientist Izumi Tabata, who along with his colleagues from the research group has shown that intense interval training effective hour fitness.

Tabata inseparable from such a device as a stopwatch and is closely linked with the concept of interval. Now I will explain. Stopwatch saves you from having to count repetitions of each exercise. In total there will be eight, and they have to perform in the most rapid pace. Each exercise should be repeated for 20 seconds, which will help to measure the stopwatch. Now for the interval. Prerequisite Tabata - 10 seconds breaks after each exercise. To measure these 10 seconds again will the stopwatch.

Exercises for Tabata can choose at their discretion. But it is important that due to them were involved in all the major muscle groups. I'll show you an example of successful exercises for training Tabata.

By the end of training my heart beats racing. The first time I made only one lap Tabata. Now I am able to increase the number of approaches to 3, sometimes even in the mood to 5 times. Of course, in this case, it goes to the gym has not 4, and all of 20 minutes. But still it is not an hour that I spend in the gym. And the effects are no worse. And this despite the fact that every day I can not train. In the week I was doing Tabata 3-4 times depending on the workload.

I think, important additions to such training, directly affecting the result are my regular biking over rough terrain and moderate balanced diet, has become the norm of my life.

So my fashion experiment Tabata I really liked, and his breath after such an intense, I find it quite successful.
