Women’s Fitness Australia — May 2017

Technique

■ Run on the spot with high

knees, super fast! Use your arms

to create momentum.

Do 60 reps.

HIGHKNEE

RUN

A WINNER ’CAUSE: It’s all about

speed and a cardio spike, to get the

heart rate up and improve fi tness; it

also dynamically works the core

If you need a low-

impact option for this

one, just keep your

knees down and run

on the spot super fast

Technique

■ Stand tall with wide footing, hands

up in a guard position by your chin.

■ Complete 4 super-fast and sharp

punches into the air, then bend into

a squat, place your hands on the

ground and jump or step your feet

out behind you into a plank, before

jumping them back in and rising.

Do 5 reps.

PUNCH

TO SPRAWL

A WINNER ’CAUSE: It’s a full-body

burner that pays a little extra attention

to the arms and core

Because the

science behind

tabata only works if you

really push hard in your 20

seconds of work, seven of the eight

exercises have specifi c goal reps for

you to hit, so you have something to

strive for. Can’t quite get there?

Keep working at it until you do!

Smashing every goal? Set it a

little higher each round

until you’re really

challenged.
