Today I am off to Key West for my sister-in-law’s bachelorette party and to run the half marathon at the Southernmost Marathon. I’ll be back with a full recap and hopefully a happy race story next week.I wanted to share a Halloween themed tabata workout that is great for when you don’t have a lot of time to workout or if you’re looking for a great way to burn fat. This workout was originally posted last year, but I thought it was perfect timing to share it again.Tabata workouts were created by the coach of the Japanese Olympic Speed Skating team.

1 of 7Home Workout Routine: Low-Impact HIIT High-intensity interval training (HIIT) describes any workout that alternates between intense bursts of activity and fixed periods of less-intense activity or even complete rest.
