Two 4 Minute Workouts

This past Saturday morning we did two 4 minute workouts with a one-minute rest in between. We repeated that cycles three times for six 4 minute workouts. Total workout time: 24 minutes. Total rest intervals: 5 minutes.

As is typical in boot camp we had a range of people that varied in ability and level of conditioning. So we set two protocals for the group. Beginners would follow the traditional Tabata format of :20 work and :10 rest for 8 rounds. More advanced people would follow a :50 work :10 rest cycle for 4 rounds.

Notice the variations that people use. It may look like they are doing a different exercise, but they are all doing a variation of the exercise that is either less, or more challenging based on their level of ability.

This facility already has stability balls and body bars, so we use what is available. Unfortunately, I can't bring in my dumbbells, kettlebells, sandbags, etc. as there is logistical
way to get them in the building for just one class a week. So we'll use what is available and make the most of it. Which is exactly what boot camp teaches us!
