“Tabata Something Else”
Complete 32 intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by ten seconds of rest where the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals are squats. There is no rest between exercises.
Post total reps from all 32 intervals to comments.

Just to make sure I get this right.
1. (pull ups for 20 seconds then rest ten seconds) X 8 times
2. (push ups for 20 seconds then rest ten seconds) X 8 times
3. (sit ups for 20 seconds then rest ten seconds) X 8 times
4. (squats for 20 seconds then rest ten seconds) X 8 times
Is that right?

Moe,
That is correct. This is a BEAST workout. The goal is to pick a number of reps to start with and try to continue with that number throughout the 8 intervals. You dont want to start off with 15 reps on interval #1 and then end with 2 reps on interval #8. Instead try 7 or 8 reps and try to stay consistent. Good Luck!!

Death = yep. Especially after eating a Jack-In-The-Box Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich and tots directly before… and then immediately driving to class afterwards. My brain was puking all over the 60 freeway.

Why does it say assistance in front of all of the sets when we only had it for pull-ups?
January 11th, 2008 at 8:21 am
Julianne,
The reason it says assistance at the beginning is because the first number is for pull ups. If everyone had assistance for push ups it would have before the 2nd number.

Jub,
That makes sense.
