This tabata workout has three 4 minute rounds. The first and the last are tabata interval training rounds and the second round is a rep challenge, to do as many reps as possible of a side plank burpees. I love these burpees. They will challenge your balance, which is always great to work on your inner core muscles. This workout takes little room. It is short, only 12 minutes, and tabata workouts are proven to build strength and endurance fast.
