Athletes Notes

Scoring

Set 1 = TOTAL Alternating Leg V-Ups
Set 2 = TOTAL Bodyweight Upright Rows
Set 3 = TOTAL Leg Lifts

Workout Strategy and Flow

  • Be ready for your core and shoulders to be burning!
  • Try your best during the rest to shake those arms out.
  • Alternating Leg V-Up : remember because this has the word alternating in it, every leg counts as a rep. Aim to stay moving for the whole 20 seconds, only resting in the 10 second rest windows.
  • Bodyweight Upright Row : still focus on squeezing your back muscles at the top, even though you don’t have weight. Focus on steady movement instead of speed here.
  • Leg Lifts : Your core will be cooked by the time you get here, hang on to these leg lifts the best you can for the remaining 8 rounds. Modify the variation if you need to

FUN RECOMMENDATION

  • Complete each of these tabatas by following along to the Tabata Song. Each movement will need a different song. There are 75 different song options so pick your jam. You don’t even need to set a clock, just be sure you only rest for 1 minute between tabatas when changing to the next song 🙂

  • Crush Grip Dumbbell Upright Row – these can be really challenging depending on your hand size vs the dumbbell heads so today, I will allow other RX options such as:
    1) Hold Single Dumbbell by the handle with both hands (this is what I did)
    2) if you have access to 2 lighter dumbbells to perform Double Dumbbell Upright Row
    3) Kettlebell Upright Row
  • Leg Lifts : Your core will be cooked by the time you get here, hang on to these leg lifts the best you can for the remaining 8 rounds. Modify the variation if you need to
