Tabata
October 16, 2009 by Joe Gigantino
In today’s full body workout, we will work upper body and back first, then lower body with a Tabata workout (intense 20 seconds on, then 10 seconds off for 4 minutes) 
Warm up: 10 minute jump rope
Workout:
- Tabata Pullups (use bands if needed) in 20 seconds do as many reps as possible and then take 10 seconds break. Do a total of 8 rounds. Switch up your grip each round. Ex: overhand grip, underhand grip, overhand grip, underhand grip and repeat. Total of 4 minutes.
- 10 Burpees
- Tabata Deadlifts (Men 135 lbs, women 65 lbs) Do as many as you can for 20 seconds, then take 10 seconds rest, continue for 4 minutes.
- Want to score your workout? 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. Post your times!
