You "Tabata" Be Kidding!!



The challenge for the next 3 days is to get through each of the tabata workouts below. And just because I am not there with you does not mean you can slack!! Make sure to push yourself through EVERY 20 second interval.

Wednesday
"Core-Tastic"

Sit-ups
Russian Twist
Back Extensions
Windshield Wipers (lay on your back with feet straight up, arms out to the sides and lower your legs to the right, back to center and to the left) Just like a windshield wiper goes back and fourth on your car.



Thursday
"Thighs-O-Steal"

Squats
Mountain Climbers
Weighted Lunges
Burpees



Friday
"Show-Me-Those-Guns"

Close hand push-ups (diamond)
Push Press (Dip Drive with weights held at shoulders)
Dips
Sumo Dead Lift High Pulls (Remember speed is the key here)


There is a free online Tabata timer you can use to get through each of these workouts. Keep in mind the tabata is set up for one single 4 minute (8 round) workout. Meaning you will have to start a new timer for each of the 4 exercises. Keep in moving quickly so you do not let your heart rate drop too much. Click here for the timer.
