This no jumping tabata superset workout is perfect if you have downstairs neighbors (no thudding around!). It’s also great if you want to avoid high impact on your joints. Especially because there’s no jumping, I encourage you to challenge yourself with the weights you choose.
No Jumping Tabata Workout
EQUIPMENT NEEDED:
- Medium dumbbell (I have a 10-lb weight and an 8-lb weight on hand in case I need to drop down)
- Heavy kettlebell (you could use a dumbbell, but we’ll be doing swings)
This total body tabata superset workout is broken up into four tabatas. A tabata is 8 rounds using an interval structure of 20 sec work / 10 sec rest. I’ll give you two exercises that you’ll alternate between.
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:
- 5-Min Warm Up
- 7-Min Gentle Warm Up (no jumping)
