    Cardio when you wake because you have to eat within the first hour of waking. 20 grms carbs 25 grams protein. First 3 meals of the day like this...last two meals only protein and veggies.....no carbs...Weight training hard core three or four times per week. No rest day! Do this until you get to where you want to be! :wink:

    That's not Tabata protocol. "True" Tabata is 4 minutes long. Any longer than that is HIIT training.

    Untrue. One doesn't HAVE to eat within an hour of waking. There is no clinical evidence to prove that meal timing has significant results in weight loss.

    why do you have to eat within an hour of waking? Everyone's protein/macro goals will be quite different.
    OP I think if you can handle that routine go with it. I personally run or do HIIT in the AM and then lift four days a week in the afternoons, I do this mainly to workout around naps and feeding of two babies. I've made great gains in the strength department, cardio is minimal but I miss it when it's not there, I'm not trying to lose but I'm eating ALOT, so make sure you're getting enough fuel.....

    This sounds waaaaay too complicated.

    It's good to eat carbs hour(s) before any workout. I have tried just proteins before a workout and I never felt so weak.

    Are you sure you want to do 30-45 mins of interval training in the evening? And if you are doing Tabata and going as hard as you can in each interval30-45 mins will be very tough. I know if I went that hard for that long, I probably wouldn't be able to go hard again the next day. 20 mins of tabata HIIT should be more than enough because you are also doing cardio in the morning. HIIT will create that afterburn so that you will burn more cals while you sleep. I think if you are doing such long HIIT interval training every day, you will open up yourself to injury. But to each his own. Good luck!!

    Calling your evening training circuit or HIIT is probably more accurate than using the term Tabata.

    Tabata is going as hard as you possibly can for 20 seconds then resting 10 and then going again. Most people cant even do the 4 minutes.

    45 minutes of intervals is just higher intensity cardio.


    Edit: Not bagging on your program just explaining what Tabata is. It has been hijacked by some people that just take the 20 seconds work/10 second rest model and call it Tabata.

    HIIT has also been hijacked as most people ignore what the first two letter stand for.
