Requires a bit of core work, but also want to be sure that you're fired up your metabolism? This exercise takes a standard low-intensity abs workout and brings up the average calorie-burning by beginning with a HIIT (high-intensity interval workout). This combination increases the heart rate with HIIT, which in effect crosses over to the core work allowing you to sustain a higher heart rate through your abs work than if you were performing the abs routine alone. This altitude in your total heart rate allows the user to take on a bit more of a cardio task overall.
Begin this workout with quick five-minute warming up and then jump straight into the HIIT routine for 5 minutes. We use our regular 20 seconds on it and 10 seconds off Tabata style durations, but instead of moving back ahead, as we often do, among two exercises in an ABAB pattern, we immediately run through these 5 exercises once before we start over for our second set.
What else do you need to know?
If you really want to do more than that routine, we recommend adding extra HIIT or power section before this regimen. Since your heart is so important in managing it is best to maintain intensive heart oriented workouts before you've completed all the other daytime exercise. This included HIIT, Power (top, bottom or some of its combinations), Aerobic Kickboxing, Kettlebell, and even yoga. First start with the most dynamic/ballistic, then work down your way to the most isolated.
