GREYSTONES, IRELAND—The word "Brexit" has been thrown around in politics and the media since 2016, but it didn't make any sense to me until I arrived in Ireland three weeks ago.

Fit Friday
Tabata Style: Tabata's are a short version of the classically known HIIT workouts. Tabata means 20 seconds of work, 10 seconds of rest, eight times. This is a great style of workout to do when you only have a couple minutes. Maybe you do it right before you take a shower, when you need a five-minute study break, or right before you go to dinner every night. It only takes four minutes but the beauty of it is you can repeat it as many times as you want and even change the exercises to give yourself some more variation. So, here's what it might look like.
