Tabata Tuesday (The Wednsday/Post Storm Remix)


Perform each exercise for 20, rest 10, and repeat for 8 rounds. Perform this protocol for each exercise. Once you have completed 8 rounds, move immediately to the next exercise. It's easy to keep up with the time. We simply use the
Gymboss Interval Timer
.



1. Tabata Squats
2. Push Ups
3. Ski Jump Squats
4. Burpees
5. Mt. Climbers
6. Plank




This was good for anaerobic cardio conditioning, as well as building strength. You can also perform the Tabata protocol with dumbells, barbells, bodyweight, plyometrics, calisthenics, sprints, sledgehammers, sandbags, or medicine balls, just to name a few.

Each exercise performed in the Tabata fashion lasts only 4 minutes. However, if done with good form and great focus, you will sweat and have your heart racing, as if you were running for your life in the Amazon jungle. Don't forget, the key to really see the fruits of your labor form this program, as well as others, is to eat properly for such an intense program.



This would be the ideal time to drink a pre and post-workout shake with the right mix of muscle-building protein and fast acting carbs, such as Prograde Workout, to immediately begin to help support muscle growth and restore energy supply with this program.
