We love Tabata sessions at CFSF, and we've seen our share of them. Each Tabata workout demands different strategies. All reps count with 'Tabata Something Else' so the brakes were off...

'Tabata Something Else'
32 intervals of :20 seconds work, and :10 seconds of rest. The first 8 are pull-ups, then push-ups, sit-ups, finishing with squats. The clock does not stop. Total number of reps are counted.

Good job everybody! We had some seriously strong efforts with monster points- Corey, Lynde, Chris, HOOF*CKINYAH! We did not distinguish between Rx and scaled on the score sheet, but in order for this to be at prescription all pull-ups have to have been from the bar, and no use of a med ball for push-ups.

The Tabata format is fun, and it's also a great tool for conditioning. Number crunchers have found it to be the most effective way to train the three energy pathways we use. Deceivingly difficult, the Tabata format is a car crusher. If this was your first Tabata, congratulations. You made it.

The rest day is approaching. Do you have your recipes picked out and shopping list completed, or even better, all supplies ready to go? Eat like a caveman.

A quick word of thanks for the way everyone helped out with scoring. Another big distinction of CFSF from the globo gym... THANKS!

Thanks also for the great efforts and fuel. You make CFSF special.
