Tue 1 December 09: Tabata Time!

We had a big class today - 6 all up - Great to get that team atmosphere where everyone is working hard!

We hit three movements -Dumbbell Hang Squat Clean, Box Jumps and Press ups - in tabata fashion.

20 seconds on, 10 seconds off - 8 rounds. It breeds Aerobic and Anaerobic Capacity, mix this with functional movement and you have a great little WOD. Be aware, do not underestimate the power of TABATA!!!

World Class Fitness in 100 words...

“Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, c&j, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports. ”
