Warm up: jog 1 mile

Tabata Workout Routine:

- Exercise 1, Tabata Bench Press; do as many reps as you can for 20 seconds, 10 second rest, continue for 4 minutes.
Men 135 lbs, Women 65 lbs, Beginners 45 lb bar.
Scoring -- what ever your lowest rep in any of the eight rounds is that will be your high score. So if in one of the rounds you only do 5 reps then that will be your score for the workout.

- Indoor Row for 2k

- Exercise 2, Tabata Push Ups; hands should be under the shoulders (not a wide hand position) do as many as you can for 20 seconds, 10 second rest, continue for 4 minutes.
Again your lowest rep in any of the eight rounds that is your score for the round. Go to your knees if you have to.

- Post your score for the Bench and Push ups! Don’t give up!
