Tabatas revenge at Ascent

Tabatas revenge at Ascent

Preparing for a large crowd from RockZero, YHC geared up with a plan to test the entire nation, clydesdales and whatever you call those people who run fast.

I dunno if they got the memo.

But before too long, 7:01 (that’s what makes it moderate, or so the claim goes), the usual warm up kicks off, consisting of laps around the short track, standard warm up exercises, like SSH, Merkins, Mountain Climbers, the like.

Then straight into the meat of it…

Enter, the tabata timer. 45 seconds of exercise, 15 seconds of rest/relocate to the next station. Rinse and repeat for 15 stations. Set to music older than YHC, but such is life as the WarBaby.
1. Jump Ups
2. Dips
3. Plank
4. Derkins
5. Lunges
6. 8 Count Manmakers
7. Wind Sprint
8. Merkins
9. People’s Chair
10. Peter Parker
11. Incline Merkins
12. American Hammer
13. KB Swings
14. Squats
15. LBCs

Two Rounds of this.

Then to the playground. Gotta love having pull-up bars at the site, and it’d be a shame to not put them to use.
Mini Murph for time.
Pull ups, Merkins, Squats and laps around the baseball field.

Wrap that up with some PAX choice mary and it’s a wrap.

There wasn’t a whole lot of mumblechatter from the crowd. Partly because of the music. Partly because 15 seconds is a lot shorter than you imagine. So unfortunately no funny anecdotes from today. Maybe if YHC made the timer more like 40-20… bah!
