How to Lose Fat With Tabata Training By Callie Durbrow At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

There are many reasons why people do not exercise. Many of these reasons are not valid, but they happen anyway. When I talk to many of my personal training clients and people in my circle, here are some of the reasons why their training is suffering:

• Not enough time for effective training
• Lack of equipment at home or while traveling
• Unable to set up circuit training when the gym is busy and crowded
• They are unsure of what to do for effective fat loss training

The best thing that you can do for your body and your mind is to enroll in a qualified and safe personal training program that fits your needs and goals. Personal training will give you an efficient and effective program for weight loss, fat loss, and general fitness. You would not try to clean your own teeth, fix your own car, or dry clean your clothes, would you?

Hiring a professional is the best way to see results and to avoid frustration. Many people see results and then give up, but with a personal training program you will constantly be progressing and seeing results with program design modification.

If this is not an option for you then one great way to lose body fat and get in amazing shape while beating all of the issues that I spoke about above is to start something called Tabata training.

Tabata training was developed by a Japanese researcher and was eventually named after him. This concept is amazing for all types of training goals, especially fat loss. The best part about it is that it takes no time at all. The worst part about it (initially) is the intense exhaustion and wondering how it just took that much out of you when you only worked out for 10 minutes, maximum.

Are you ready to find out how this simple training style can change the way you look at fat loss training? Here is how it works. You take one exercise and perform it in the following manner:

• Perform as many repetitions as you can for 20 seconds
• Rest for 10 seconds
• Repeat the cycle 4-8 times (depending on your training level)

There are several training options for a Tabata workout. You can pick one exercise and perform the higher number of sets, or you can pick 2-4 exercises and perform them with 4-5 rounds. Here are some examples:

• Barbell Front Squats for 8 sets
Or
• Body weight squats for 4 sets followed by:
• Push Ups for 4 sets followed by:
• V-Up Crunches for 4 sets

With Tabata style training you are automatically increasing the volume (number of repetitions) and with the short rest times, your entire body is challenged to recover and push through the following sets.

When choosing exercises you want to pick movements that incorporate a large number of muscles. This will burn more calories, tax your body effectively, and will challenge you athletically.

Here are some other examples to mix into the Tabata training:
• Lunges
• Chin Ups
• Mountain Climbers
• Jump Squats or Jump Lunges
• Thrusters
• Kettle Bell Swings

Be sure to consult with a personal trainer or join a personal training group in order to ensure you are using proper technique. It's much easier to have someone else time you so you do not have to keep looking at your watch or worse, cheating on the rest times.

Try a training session like this once or twice per week and you will see huge gains in your fat loss progress. Incorporate strength training, proper nutrition, and conditioning training such as sprints and you will be well on your way to a tight and lean body.
