    When pressed for time, Tabata burpees is the answer.

    I always get Tabata burpees when I eat too much sushi. And Tabata farties too.

    Four minutes of that and EVERYONE is gasping for air.

    I would submit that I also do Tabata belchies.........................a combination of burpee and fartie.

    Standing by you, Tracy! You have recovery periods in between, it can be done if one has the time.

    It might be a good idea if the Tabata-style workouts are called that rather than Tabatas

    Agree. There's no reason people can't do 20/10 interval workouts without having to exert 100% effort on each interval.

    It's good for getting up the heart rate into the "zones" and keeping it up. The Sosche monitor will show you the average heart rate for the entire workout...
