Tabata training is a style of conditioning that was developed by a Japanese scientist, Dr. Izumi Tabata, and a group of researchers.  I won't bore you with all the details (you can read more about it here); the bottom line is, high-intensity interval training of tabata has amazing impact on both the aerobic (cardiovascular) and anaerobic (muscle) systems.  Tabata is great to get a quick workout in if you're short on time, you need to switch up your routine, or you want improve endurance and speed. This leg workout is a version of the tabata style that has both cardio and strength exercises in each set so you not only burn calories, but you are sculpting your muscles as well.  Total leg burnout! We did this workout in class and the ladies loved it!  You work hard and fast, but you feel accomplished and proud  upon completion!  Incorporate this type of workout into your fitness routine and you will see results!
