Hybrid Tabata Intervals
Follow the tabata interval protocol (20 seconds work/10 seconds rest) for the following exercises, in a circuit:
- Burpees (9, 9, 9, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8)
- Mountain Climbers
- Pushups (22, 17, 14, 15, 14, 14, 15, 13)
- Squats (19, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20)
- Chinnies
Repeat circuit 8x for 20 minutes total.
This is a real ass kicker. My burpee numbers improved slightly from last time (+3), squats were about the same (+1), and pushups improved significantly (+15). I think it’s partly due to spacing out the burpees and pushups, but also because I didn’t pace myself on the pushups this time - I just went to failure each set.
