Tabata: four to sixteen minutes that will reverberate through the next four hours of your day. (Eight in our case.) If you blog, blog before those minutes.

Real content tomorrow, I have a fisk lined up and everything.

    That sounds way too much like exercise. And not the fun kind either.

    I think I’m having contact soreness just from reading your blog. :P

    Four to sixteen? I thought the Tabata protocol was an even four-minute workout. Unless you’re calling any high intensity interval training Tabata? Or, horror of horrors, stacking Tabata’s (push-ups, squats, etc. done Tabata-style simultaneously)? O.o

    Phlegm: Ah. I was wondering what was wrong with me… :p

    Tabata is indeed four minutes. And yes, I am talking stacking sets of different exercises. The prescribed workout for people not as drastically unfit as I was sixteen minutes- four minutes of pullups, four minutes of pushups, four minutes of situps, four minutes of squats. I did eight- two minutes of each.

    We will not speak of my results, but I finished the eight.

    Pukie the Clown was not summoned, but his presence was only barely averted.

    Fortunately, as LR will hopefully blog, that’s actually a *good* symptom. After a fashion.

    Tabata…
    Of course you lose weight- you vomit your fucking intestines.

    I keep meaning to try Tabata front squats. They seem like such a good idea. The only problem is that, somehow, I keep finding other things to do instead… I still haven’t done a set of Tabata FSQs, but I’ve set a deadlift PR and figured out a way to bench without wrecking my right rotator cuff.

    Maybe I’ll do Tabata FSQs this Friday. Oh wait, that’s deadlift day….

    Good on y’all for ‘trying’… now keep it up, and lay in a case of Ben Gay…
