WITH

CHRISTINA BECKETTE

ABOVE There are many times that I do not want to put my workout clothes on and head down to the basement for my workout. It could be because I have been having a busy day, the kids are cranky, and/or time just seems to run out. That is why having a scheduled appointment with Lindsay is so important for me.

Otherwise I can find every excuse in the book to not get it done.

With my business, my family and my household, I often find many reasons why 'I can't' get my workout done!

I am not the best at 'self care, " usually putting my clients, my kids and everyone else before me.

Working out for me is the key to my "self care!" .

TABATA SONGS DOWNLOAD SONGS THAT HAVE THE TABATA COUNTER ALREADY BUILT IN There are a few different options with Tabata songs. I LOVE the coaching Tabata songs. Each 4 minute block has a coaching counting up and down in line with the Tabata protocol.

Each "song" is the full four minutes with 20 seconds of work with 10 seconds rest. It keeps you motivated and pushes you to complete each round.

CHOOSE THE TYPE OF MUSIC YOU LIKE You can choose from electronic to house to country music. I usually do a mixture of them all. I especially love them when I am teaching a spin class (indoor cycling) so the "coach" can talk while we all work.

So instead of doing a set of weighted lunges and then taking a break for a few minutes, head straight to another exercise

NEW TYPES ARE BEING ADDED EVERYDAY

When Tabata Songs first came out in 2011 there were not many options BUT today you have a ton of different types of music, beeps versus a coach and pretty much everything in between. As Tabata continues to grow in popularity, more options will continue to become available.

iTunes: $1 - $10

HIGH VS LOW INTENSITY Often people confused HIGH INTENSITY to mean high impact.

Lets look at the definitions of no, low and high impact first.

No-impact - where your feet don't leave the ground (like swimming or the elliptical trainer) Low-impact - which involves activities where at least one foot is still on the ground (like walking)

High-impact - where both feet are off the ground at the same time (like running or plyometrics) HIGH INTENSITY can include any of these types of exercise. What makes exercise high in intensity?

One marker is elevated heart rate. Another is the talk test? If you can’t easily talk – you’re doing something pretty high-intensity!

So you can see that everyone can do high intensity without high impact.

SECONDS PRO APP TAKING YOUR INTERVAL TRAINING TO THE NEXT LEVEL

USE THE TEMPLATES Seconds Pro is an interval training timer for iOS with large numbers and templates for HIIT, tabata, circuit training, and more. You also get text to speech, control over every interval, and Wahoo heart rate monitor support.

HIIT, Circuit Training, Tabata and Round Timer templates are included within to app. Combining timers and create custom timers is also extremely easy to do.

This is the app I use the most for all my classes. I can change the interval times (30 sec work/10 sec rest or 60 sec work/15 sec rest) I can also colour code each interval which I LOVE!

Seconds will read out your interval names so you don't even need to see the timer. It can even alert of the next interval giving you timer to prepare.

No matter what the workout, there is an interval timer for it.

MUSIC INTEGRATION

You can also add names, have countdowns and include rest between sets.

It is free to try but I bought this one for $6.99 and it is worth every cent!

TEXT TO SPEECH

Match your music to the intensity of your workout. With Seconds you can assign music per interval, span across intervals, or simply play music from other apps.
