tabatas revisited
Today was a rest day. I’ve been prescribing Tabatas to others recently, but haven’t done any myself for a long time, more than 6 weeks. Need a dose, so
Tabata push-ups: 17-17-17-17-13-7-6-7 = 101 total, less than my previous 105. I expected to increase, but I haven’t done push-ups in over a month. Yes, you should boggle at my uncharacteristic neglect.
Tabata pull-ups: 10-10-10-10-7-7-3-5 = 62 total. My first time trying this.
I’ve a lot to say about Tabatas, mostly concerning Gant Grimes’ huge tabata project, which began with a 12 week study in late August 2007. The project generated a lot of interest and Gant got stoked on his findings and progress. He documented everything beautifully…
…but this story must wait. I’m eager to write it up as soon as I can steal the time; this expectation was the justification for this entry.
