Motivation
I usually do these write ups the day before the post. It would be nice to get them done in advance but then they seem to lose that in the moment personal touch. So right now it is Wednesday morning and the 5:30 am class is just wondering in. The moon is full and was sitting low on the horizon as I drove in. I’m headed to Disneyland with the family today but like I mentioned yesterday there really is no true day off. I’m here for the first two classes and then headed back home to start our adventure. Make the most of your day.
Workout Strategy
The Tabata protocol is 20 seconds of work then 10 seconds of rest. Usually it’s one exercise done 8 rounds in a row, but today we are alternating between two. Tabata scoring is your lowest score for each exercise, so consistency will be important. For the 1st round of dips, and the 1st round of pullups, only work for the first 10 to 15 seconds then try to hit the same number every round there after. The Ab-mats and the Jump rope should be done the entire 20 seconds as these fatigue much more slowly.
