3 X 12 at Varsity

Eight men in total posted at Varsity for a Tabata routine workout on a somewhat breezy morning.
Started with six pax and then an additional two Iron Pax gents joined in about 20 mins into the workout.

Warm Up
Mosey run
SSH (IC 10x)
Windmill (IC 10x)
Imperial Walker (IC 10x)
Merkins (IC 10X)
Plank stretches
Downward dog
Honeymooner
5 Pullups OYO

The tabata routine noted below was three sets of four exercises repeated three times, hence 3×12,

Thang 1:  I used the Seconds Pro timer to prompt us through the thang.  Also had tunes going.
Interval routines: exercise for 32 seconds, rest/transition for 10 seconds
Set #1:
Imperial Walkers
Dips
LBCs
Bobby Hurley’s
Repeat 3x

Short mosey Run

Set #2:
windmills
American Hammers
Step ups
OH claps
Repeat 3x

Short mosey Run

Set #3:
Derkins
flutters
Cherry pickers
Bomb jacks
Repeat 3x

Thang 2:
Sally routine (Moby’s song Flower): Leg lifts (down position should be 6″ off the deck)

Fini, COT

The 3×12 tabata was decent, but I’d bump it up to 45 seconds on exercise next time.

Doing the Sally  routine with leg lifts is a different take on the high plank/low plank version of it.  But it still rage-worthy by the twentieth time Moby cycles through “Bring Sally Up, Bring Sally Down”
