Lower Body Tabata Superset Workout (20 Mins) - This workout will target legs & glutes and is broken up into four tabatas. Video included! #lowerbodyworkout #legday #tabata #hiit #workout #workoutvideo

Lower Body Tabata Superset Workout

EQUIPMENT NEEDED

This lower body tabata superset workout is broken up into four tabatas. A tabata is 20 seconds of work / 10 seconds of rest x8. You’ll alternate between two exercises in each tabata.

The first tabata is a little different from the other three. It’s focused on glute activation. You’ll do the first four intervals isolating one side, and then switch to the other leg the second half. It’s not as sweaty and intense as the rest of the tabatas.

Because the bulk of this workout is intense, you get an extra 30 seconds of rest when you hit the halfway point of those three tabatas. The added recovery is important so that you’re able to push your hardest during the remaining work intervals.

Rest for 60 seconds after each completed tabata superest.

As with all workouts, you want to make sure you’re properly warmed up before, and always listen to your body, modifying or stopping as needed. I have two guided warm ups:
