    Tabata is an intense workout. I ended up buying sandbags, tractor tires, ropes, sledgehammers, and all kinds of odd gear for it. I believe 2 times a week is plenty since it's so intense. You gotta loooooove pain for that workout. :-D

    Yep, Tabata is hardcore stuff. I do it with my heavy bag (after warming up)...with planks, situps, all kinds of stuff.

    The boost to your metabolism is intense.

    If you search HIIT on the Android Market, you can download free customizable timers too.

    you can also get a GYMBOSS interval timer. It's pretty much designed for Tabata workouts.
