30 Minute Tabata Cardio Workout | POWER Program - Day 16

[@simplebyemmy]

Nothing is wasted! I love this analogy from James Clear in Atomic Habits: ““Imagine that you have an ice cube sitting on the table in front of you. The room is cold and you can see your breath. It is currently twenty-five degrees. Ever so slowly, the room begins to heat up. Twenty-six degrees. Twenty-seven. Twenty-eight. The ice cube is still sitting on the table in front of you. Twenty-nine degrees. Thirty. Thirty-one. Still, nothing has happened. Then, thirty-two degrees. The ice begins to melt. A one-degree shift, seemingly no different from the temperature increases before it, has unlocked a huge change. Breakthrough moments are often the result of many previous actions, which build up the potential required to unleash a major change. Complaining about not achieving success despite working hard is like complaining about an ice cube not melting when you heated it from twenty-five to thirty-one degrees. Your work was not wasted; it is just being stored. All the action happens at thirty-two degrees.” 🙌🏻

Ikr! I gave up coffee cause of these workouts🤣

[@ButtersTheBean]

I'm proud of myself for getting this done at 10 pm even though I considered to take the day off. I did and am glad I did.

[@bjaneeeee]

Same! Just done this at 11pm before starting STRONG tomorrow. Byeeeee cardio 👋🏻 ✌🏻

[@ZannePeace42]

I love tabata - making sure I go hard the whole work period is really a good challenge when it’s so short!

[@alexmulligan1767]

I've struggled with my body and my body image my whole life. It wasn't until I started doing these workouts that I've forgotten to obsess over how I look and instead I am focused on being healthy and strong. Thank you, Sydney, for creating this healthy minded way of working out, and how to understand everyone's progress looks different. You've helped me not just with physical strength, but the strength to view myself as healthy and strong and to be proud of how far I've gotten.

[@OddOwlOut]

This is the best sort of result when it comes to the journey of self love. May you continue to find new ways to recognise how wonderful you are.

[@carrieclawson2625]

Yes! Just remember that your body is an instrument to be used and NOT an ornament to be looked at. The healthier we are the more our bodies can DO for us what we want to do in life. Looks has NOTHING to do with it.

[@amyhansen1086]

Victory!! 👍👍

[@jsfitz55]

Wow did that fly by!! So glad we are getting to do some of the “oldies” again😊

[@rhonijobarnes8459]

Such a great workout! Wow, only 30 minutes..work hard in the short time & wow, you don't need anymore!

[@danielagixxer1265]

The only workout that beats tabata cardio, is your strength and conditioning. I really enjoy them both 💪💪💪

[@kabuz317]

yes, 2 of my favs too!

When life gets very busy, just pick a shorter workout! Chose this quicker workout for today. Will do the ARISE leg workout tomorrow when I have more me time! Happy Hump Day!

[@sharmilashankar6802]

Age is just a number....it is how you feel, your dedication, determination and Resilience. Awesome you did the workout.

[@kreahsmith9631]

Genuinely the best pep talks. On a good/sad/bad/angry/hard/anxious/depressed day, Sydney’s post workout talks always hit the heart in the perfect way ❤️

[@sarakmather]

I am so grateful for Royal Change; it doesn’t escape me the quality of workouts we get FOR FREE, NO ADS EVERY SINGLE DAY. I am so blessed to have found you along my fitness journey and I so needed that post workout speech today! I forgot how fun this tabata was and I felt amazing crushing it this second time around in All Time Greats. I can feel all of the progress I made from Power until now and I love it! Thank you!

[@alanameisner7132]

Thank you for giving low impact modifications! As a postpartum mama it can be hard to do all the jumping without leaking some days (always a work in progress)! I appreciate you considering that as a trainer!

[@mariel5068]

I am feeling proud of myself. I would normally see a 30 minute cardio and cringe, i remembered Sydney last week saying its all about how you go into something. Went into it ready to crush it and I did!!!!! Thank you for all you do! Have a great day everyone!

[@heatherb9705]

I used to hate burpees now I feel like a badass when Sydney says "burpees". Health and progress at it's finest!

[@rachelwittmeyer904]

I can answer yes to ALL of those non-scale victories Sydney listed! are you feeling good, are you feeling strong? are you proud of your consistency? are you getting some energy out of this, and mental clarity? YES!! such a great reminder!

That speech at the end was everything! August ATG done for today🤍💪

i cried in the end not because of the sore but because of your words. you are truly inspiring sydney!! grateful to have found your channel 💖

[@jlh5310]

It is seriously such a nice feeling to get a workout done before work. So when I come home, I can go for a walk, I can relax, I can play a video game, read a book, do a stretching video, and I don’t have to have that little voice in the back of my head “GET YOUR WORKOUT DONE!” Haha :) (Ps - I also love I can do these workouts even with a bad meniscus tear. I need 2 knee surgeries and I can still do these workouts. Thanks for low impact!)

I've been working out with Sydney for 6 months and in the past month, I've lost a bit of motivation (not dedication, but motivation). I still show-up, but I don't have much energy. TODAY, though, I found it! I crushed it! I was so out of breath, but kept pushing. So grateful for Sydney, showing up everyday, regardless of my motivation that day.

[@gracemallorca3659]

My new fave workout channel! Let me just say I'm new here and I finished the workout, besides the point. I didn't expect the words of wisdom in the end, make me tear up. You really never know when you need words to make you feel better.

[@cheridixon9170]

Thank you so much for always adding the low impact. My knees don't like jumping. I wish I could work harder but it isn't worth it for me. So THANK YOU!

[@kimmyfontane9528]

I adore you Sydney. You have gotten me through a marriage breakdown in lockdown. Without your workouts and energy, I am not sure I would have coped as well. I get out of bed because you and your amazing motivation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. London, UK

My endurance is so much higher, 9 months ago I was always taking pre-workout before doing your workouts and for the past month I have cut that out, just to see if I could and I CRUSHED it. I still take pre-workout when I am exhausted but it is exciting to see how far my body has come. Thank you SO much Sydney, much love, stay safe and healthy everyone

[@sherman1280]

WHOA!! I burned 234 calories in 30 minutes! It normally takes 45 or 50 minutes for me to burn that much. This was intense, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the tabata style. I find the tabata workouts easier to "digest" because they're broken up into "smaller bites". Thanks, Sydney and Dustin! That was a great workout!!

[@jairiesanchez]

10 pm, PST and I just crushed it!! I needed this energy all day, sad I waited all day to do this workout, but glad I did it. Thank you, Sydney!

I am just like anyone who commented on your video and I just want to tell you that, your positivity really help me...thank you so much

[@ddot9566]

I'm finally doing a workout I've never done before. Yay! This was tough in a great way. The glute raises were the hardest for me. The balance required was tough, but I got it by the second round. My cardio has definitely improved because I was able to maintain my intensity throughout the workout. Breathing was key. I'm glad Sydney emphasized that at the beginning. I even had energy at the end to tack on a 15 minute full body weight workout from Sydney. Today was a great day!

[@ildaandaluz]

OMG did I miss Sydney! I was not able to workout for the passed 5 days and I felt like something was missing.... my daily workout with Sydney! All day I was looking forward to her energy and workout. Thank you for what you do Sydney! You are amazing and it is pleasure to have you as a coach!
