I have been attempting a form of High Intensity Interval Training called 'Tabata Training'.

- Sprint for 20 seconds
- Walk for 10 seconds
- Repeat 7 more times over 4 mins

HOW MANY CALORIES DOES IT BURN?

I have repeated this circuit 4 times during the day (2x 8 min intervals) about 4 times a week
I would like to know if anyone else is doing tabata training or any other type of HIIT, and if it really works for fat loss!

Thanks :happy:

    I've not heard it called by that name, but I have heard of sprint intervals. I don't have a HRM either, so I tend to just break it down by X minutes running ___mph and X minutes walking ___mph.

    It will be different for every person, for me it was about 10 calories a minute. I used my heart rate monitor to determine calories burned. However depending on your height and weight you will burn more/less.

    I just did a Tabata workout earlier this morning and it was about 40mins long and I burned 413 calories according to my HRM.. but of course it will be different for everyone since height, weight, and intensity is different.
