    I didn't know what it was until I saw your message and looked it up online. If you google it you will find info and videos. Other than that I'm afraid I can't help you. It looks interesting though, I'm going to do some more research on it.

    Tabata interval training using the GymBoss timer?

    I use it in conjunction with www.bodyrock.tv workouts. :)

    gymboss timer is a timer that you can set work and rest times and number of rounds. Perfect for tabata. Also, try and download some music as people have made them with timers in them.

    I do tabata all the time. Love em :)

    I will make up a circuit using all the stuff I have in my gym. This can include db's, bb's, kb's, torsonator, chinup bar, resistance bands, light hand weights for boxing. I prefer to mix up body parts so that I can continue pushing and do more than the 8 rounds (4mins). I have continually done it for close to an hour by doing it this way. Otherwise, just do light weight trusters with db's. You will be destroyed :P

    I do Tabata every now and then on the bike. It's a crazy work out even though it seems like it's not a lot. The first time I did it I thought I was gonna die!
