Tabata You Challenge!! Big K Hits!!

[hannes joubert]

Post may be a bit old, but are you bro's still open on this?

Looking to start Tabata, with an empty barbell in order to shred some BF%....

One question, what is the "rest period" between the sets?

Thanks

The details are can be seen by clicking on the link in the first post. But to answer this question, your rest is 10 seconds.

And yes, there are K hits for finishers.

Ok, in "warm up" to the Tabata dumbbell thrusters I plan to do, I performed an empty barbell complex today after a chest workout....

The barbell complex had six different exercises in it and I "only" managed 2 sets, after which I was toast (close to the all important puke), I think it was the 50m sprints at the end that did me in...

Will hopefully be doing the dumbbell thruster Tabata workout tomorrow. Will let you know how it goes. I think it is going to be fun

Erm, the workout is harder than pronouncing the name....

Got through set four, only way to continue after that was to swap the work and rest times around....So, finished 8 sets, but not really...Conditioning is way off where I thought it was. This routine makes you take an honest look at yourself!!

Will continue until I can finish 8 full on sets and then up the poundages...

Yes, it does keep you honest. And its a great assessment of your conditioning level.
