SanFran Fitness: 20 Minute Tabata Bounce Fit

20 Minute Tabata Bounce Fit is another fun cardio workout from SanFran Fitness. This rebounder workout is done tabata style and it does get a bit intense but not super intense. I would not consider this an advanced level workout. A tabata workout is a high intensity interval training (HIIT) workout using the tabata protocol. Tabata circuits are usually done in 4 minute blocks: intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of recovery; repeat this 20/10 interval 8 times for a 4 minute tabata circuit. You usually get a short active recovery (30-60 seconds) before moving on to another tabata circuit. Claire does not do them that way. You run straight through 40 20/10 intervals with no breaks other than 10 second breaks. If this were true tabata, that would not be possible. Still, give each exercise your all and you will still get an excellent cardio workout. I enjoyed it. According to my FitBit, in 24 minutes I burned 179 calories.
