After my normal ten minutes on the recliner bike plus mobility drills, it was time for the end of week Tabata challenge! In Week 3 I did three rounds of the tabata - one resistance round, one rowing, and one biking, all at 20 seconds work followed by 20 seconds rest for 8 sets.
To make it harder this time, I reduced the recovery time to just 10 seconds. I also did two rounds of the resistance tabata, which comprised of deadlift with weighted bar, shoulder dislocate, push up from knee and plank. I didn't measure how far I travelled or how many calories I burned on the CV tabatas, but I guarantee I worked hard!
After a short rest, I then did 20 minutes on the cross-trainer, nearly 1km, in preparation for my 5k race. A pretty good workout overall.
In March 2016 I joined a wonderful community of people working towards a healthier lifestyle whilst supporting a great cause. Read about my journey as I pursue my goals and look to a fitter future.
