Workout Of The Day

“Tabata This!”
Tabata Intervals (20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest repeated 8 times) is applied in turn to the Squat, Rower, Pullups, Sit-ups, and Push-ups with a one minute rotation break between exercises. Each exercise is scored by the weakest number of reps (calories on the rower) in each of the eight intervals. During the one minute rotation time allowed the clock is not stopped but kept running. The score is the total of the scores from the five stations.

Result: Squat/Rower/Pullups/Sit-ups/Push-ups = 14/5/4/11/6 = 40

Think I underestimated myself here… with the exception of fatigue on the push-ups and a slow start in round 1 of the rower, I think I probably could have added at least 1 more rep to every movement.
