Even better, it’s a Tabata workout Opens a New Window. — four moves on each side for four minutes, adding up to a total of eight high-intensity minutes.
“I’m a big fan of Tabata because you get so much work done so quickly and you don’t even realize it,” she says of the exercise method, which consists of 20 seconds of intense effort followed by 10 seconds of rest. “You’re sticking to a schedule, you can’t mosey about. You’re in and you’re out in eight minutes with this one.”
The fitness routine she takes Us through consists of four moves: rainbow leg lifts, fire hydrants, flex foot lifts and flex leg pulses. To complete the circuit, do each move for 20 seconds on the right side, rest for 10 seconds, do 20 seconds on the left side, then rest for 10 seconds before moving onto the next exercise.

Since there’s no equipment, you can perform the moves at home or while traveling. “You can do this every day,” says Burgess — even if you’re in the gym. “Sometimes you walk into a gym and you just don’t know what to do for a workout!” she notes.
