Tardy tabattas

Too many meetings today, so we had to pick a workout at the gym. This one appeared on HQ recently, and I had heard the under-utilized interval timer voicing feelings of neglect earlier in the week.

"Tabata Something Else"
8 tabata intervals (20 seconds work followed by 10 seconds rest) of each of the following.
  • Pull-ups
  • Push-ups
  • Sit-ups
  • Squats

All 32 intervals are performed consecutively. Keep track of total reps performed for all intervals of all exercises.

Results:

Laura:
    Jumping Pull-Ups: 15,7,8,6,8,7,7,7:65
    Push-Ups: 9,8,6,7,5,7,5,6:53
    Sit-Ups: 13,12,12,12,12,12,12,12:97
    Squats: 15,15,15,15,12,15,15,15:117
    Total: 332

Seth:
    Pull-Ups: 12,10,6,6,7,6,6,6:59
    Push-Ups: 10,10,10,7,6,5,6,6:60
    Sit-Ups: 11,10,8,9,9,9,8,10:74
    Squats: 17,15,14,14,12,12,12,15:111
    Total: 304

Bit off my PRs for this workout today, but given the setup provided by other workouts this week, it's hardly surprising.
Weighed 213# at gym today. So up 20 in the last year, around 8-10 in the last month.

My squat number fell off a lot. Hmm, I wonder why.
