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!

- Tabata Intervals The blood was pumping fast. My quads were about to burst. The lactic acid was overflowing as though it was about to start seeping out of the pores of my legs. Just 5 more seconds in this last set and I was done... possibly for good. Who would have thought......
