Tabata then run

So today's workout was my first attempt at a tabata workout. Eight sets of 20 seconds of work, followed by 10 seconds of rest. There were 4 exercises, in order, pull ups, box jumps, squats, push ups. Chest is still sore from Tuesday. Here are the results;


Pull Ups
40lbs assist on the gravitron
10, 9, 8, 7
55lbs assist on the gravitron
8, 8, 8, 8

Box Jumps

17,12,12,11,11,9,9,9


Squats

18,17,16,15,14,14,14,14

Pushups

21,15,12,10,8,8,7,8

Lungs were burning during the box jumps and still feel sore more than 2 hours later. Rested while Nancy did her tabata work then hopped on the treadmill for a 15 minute time trial. Got 2.2 miles in and was really moving towards the end.

Nancy and I have a 10k Sunday morning (hopefully the snow they are predicting won't stick). Set another reach goal for Sunday of sub 45, but after looking at tomorrow's workout will be surprised if I break 46.
