Happy Workout Wednesday/ONE week until Christmas!! Seriously, one week until Santa? Hold your horses reindeer, can it really be?
If you’ve been indulging in eggnog cocktails (or hot chocolate in my case) and treating yourself to the irresistible tins of cookies that friends leave at your door, today’s Tabata routine will help trim up your waistline. It is an ideal workout for when you are snowed in with a sugar high, and it serves as a quick pre-holiday party sweat sesh, too — 30 minutes and you’re done!
What You’ll Need
- 1 set of dumbbells — I used 10lb. bells
- 1 medicine ball — I used a 12lb. ball
- interval timer — I use this Tabata Timer app on my phone
Exercises
- single-leg deadlift // lunge + knee lift
- plank row
- lunge + bicep curl
- frog jump // up-down plank (a.k.a. “walking plank”)
- single-leg glute bridge
- cross-body chop
- russian twist
New Moves >> Lunge + Knee Lift and Frog Jump {inspired by Peanut Butter Runner}
Notes
- For exercises in white, use a set of dumbbells.
- For exercises in red, use a medicine ball.
- Exercises in black don’t require equipment.

Love your workouts girl!! Single-leg deadlifts are something I’ve been working on. My balance is terrible!!
They are tough!
love this! great combination of movements. i love plank rows. total body challenge!
This one’s gonna hurt! Haha. Just what I need for this time of year :)
It’ll make you sore for sure!
I saw that frog jump on her blog the other day, too. I want to give that one a try for sure.
I teach a Tabata Bootcamp and here are some goodies that really get us going… sumo squat plyo to a heel click is a crowd pleaser, and if you do plank mt climbers, go super slow… woo hoo!!! Enjoy – I have tons more to share if you like!
Awesome, thanks!
