117: Tabata Interval Training Gone Wrong...

Dr. Stephen Cabral
About this episode

We've been taught to believe that if something works, doing more of it must be better...

It's a very American way of thinking and when it comes to certain workout styles this can get you in trouble. Today, learn the powerful metabolism boosting benefits of Tabata training and how to complete these intervals without going overboard.

Plus, I outline what intervals are meant to be done for a more prolonged period of time and just how much is too much...

Enjoy today's #CabralConcept podcast!
