Zone 1 Block: Spend 40 minutes in movement that doesn’t feel like “exercise”. For example, manual labour (mowing the lawn), easy movement (walking or light swimming) or mindfulness (written meditation or prayer.)
These should involve some physical movement, but not enough to break a sweat.
HIIT block:
TABATA Protocol:
:20 seconds on, :10 seconds rest, for 8 rounds each of:
Run/Jog
Squat
Pull-up
Pushup
Situp
If you can’t do pullups at home, skip that one (do single-under skips or double-unders).
Go as hard as possible for :20, then rest for :10. Do all 8 rounds of the Run/Jog before moving to the Squat, etc.
