Yesterday, my article titled Six New Tabata Workouts for Fast Fat Loss was published at Tmuscle.com.
.
The article tells you everything you need to know about the Tabata protocol and effective Tabata workouts. But, the article originally included 7 workouts, not 6! The editors, for whatever reason, decided not to included the 7th workout.
.
That’s okay because in today’s post, I’m going to hit you with the missing 7th Tabata workout!
.
So, here’s the missing workout exactly as I wrote it the unedited New Tabata Workouts for Fast Fat Loss article:
.
.
This bodyweight Tabata incorporates 8 exercises and alternates from the lower body, to the core, to the upper body and finishes with a total body exercise. This is repeated twice to equal four minutes total.
.
Here’s how it goes down-
20 sec Speed Squats or Squat jumps (lower body)
10 sec rest
20 sec Tight Core Rotations (core)
10 sec rest
20 sec Push Ups (upper-body)
10 sec rest
20 sec Burpees (total body)
10 sec rest
20 sec Lunges or Lunge Jumps (lower body)
10 sec rest
20 sec Tight Core Rotations (core)
10 sec rest
20 sec Plank Fast Hands (upper body)
10 sec rest
20 sec Burpee w/Jump
.
.
There are two exercises listed above you may not be familiar with? – The Tight Core Rotations and the Plank Fast Hands.

One of the best and most popular shoulder stabilization / pre-hab drills used among strength coaches these days is the Push Up Plus exercise. Why? – Because it’s a great exercise for activating and strengthening the all important Serratus Anterior muscles of the shoulder.
.
Serratus Anterior
A strong Serratus Anterior muscle is crucial for optimal shoulder health and functional movement. Put simply, the Serratus Anteriror keeps the Scapula (Shoulder Blade) pressed against the rib cage while your arm moves or deals with load.
.
Many folks blame a weak Serratus Anterior muscle for causing a winged Scapula. Although this can be true. There are some cases in which Scapula winging is cause by a long Thoracic nerve problem. This an an issue that is way beyond the scope of most coaches and therefore beyond the scope of this Blog.
.
Now, what IS within the scope of this Blog is to provide you with yet another new, smarter and more effective way to use the Push Up Plus exercise for the purpose of shoulder strengthening and injury prevention.
.
.
In the video below, I demonstrate how to perform the Push Up Plus exercise to MAXIMALLY recruit and strengthen the Serratus Anterior muscles.
.
These recommendations featured in the video below are based on the current Bio-mechanical research and teachings of world renowned Physical Therapists like Mark Comerford and Kevin Wilk.
