A typical Tabata interval workout consists of 4 movements. Each movement is done for 8 sets, with each set containing 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest. When, for example, 8 sets of rowing are completed, the athlete proceeds to the next movement.
Today we will use 4 movements as usual. As a small change, we will add an additional set so that 9 sets will be done per movement. The big change is that instead of finishing all sets in one movement before moving on, we will do 4 sets of each movement and then start back on the top of the list. We will then complete 3 sets of each movement. Back to the top of the list. And finally, complete 2 sets of each movement.
Including rest breaks between movement changes, the WOD will take 23 minutes and 30 seconds 🙂 Be sure to use the breaks (also called “transitions”!) to record the total number of reps completed for that given movement.
