How to Add HIIT to Your Workouts — the Right Way

Tabata Circuits 

Full article : link

Ditch the treadmill and use your own body. Each exercise is done for 20 seconds with 10-second rest in between. This style of training was shown to be equally effective as traditional HIIT sprint workouts. You'll perform a maximum of 8 sets of 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off. It’s not for the faint of heart, but if you have a cardio machine phobia, it does the job. Some movements for your Tabata training:
  • High-knee running
  • Squat jumps
  • Mountain climbers
  • Burpees
There’s no need to duplicate the exact exercises used here, either. Full-body exercises of any kind should substitute just fine. You can also incorporate weights for an additional challenge.
