Tabata Thursday: Level I, Week 3, Day 18

DateThursday, April 16, 2015 at 21:19 | by AuthorDarryl Edwards

Tabata Thursday: Level I, Week 3, Day 18

Started off the session with sore thighs (from Monday and Tuesday) - duck walks and tuck jumps the culprit for sure. Fortunately at the end of the session I feel better.

My best rounds were a maximum of:

34 Standing Push-Up
19 Inverted Row
26 Squat Thrusts
18 Prisoner Squats

Lowest 30 (SPU) 14 (IR), 22 (ST), 15 (PS)

My chin over (tree branch) was 28 seconds.

Looking forward to some Fun Friday tomorrow... :-)
