Dr. Tabata Is My Master!

Run Tabatas
TREADMILL

8x20 second intervals on 10 seconds rest...
Treadmill at 12% incline, speed 9.0mph (6:40 pace)

These were absolute quad/ham/calf killers. I think my HR peaked at around 200. I couldn't breathe and I nearly puked. But what a great workout. Definitely 10 times the intensity of doing them as flat out sprints on zero incline.

FINALLY DID MICHAEL TODAY!

"Michael"
3 rounds for time of:
Run 800m
50 back extensions
50 situps

Time - 19:47
Pretty sure this is a PR. Felt strong for this. Ran at 6:40 pace on the treddy and then the other stuff felt good!

An Old Friend

"Michael"
3 rounds for time of:
Run 800m
50 back extensions
50 situps

This one is good for my hip flexors and will help with running. Plus I'm supposed to do 2 miles of running today, at a decent pace. So 1.5 miles as fast as possible will make up for the .5 mile shortage in distance.

Tabatas

20sec work, 10 sec rest X 8

I will do bike AND run Tabatas today. And if I'm bold enough, when I'm done I'll hit the gym and do swim Tabatas too. Never tried that before. Should totally kill me.

I didn't do the swim Tabatas but I did do the bike and run ones.
Bike -
Distance - 1.49 miles
Top speed - 25.2mph
Average speed - 22.35mph

Run -
Distance - 0.74 miles
Best pace - 4:50/mi
Average pace - 5:24/mi

Both of these include the rest periods where I coasted on the bike with no pedaling between intervals, and walked between run intervals.

If Angie Were Shorter...

...and a little different...

Bolder Shoulders

TU080408

Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Push Jerk 5-5-5-5-5 reps

I will not be doing this one today. I have decided that since tri training is getting heavier that I need to pick and choose the best CF workouts that complement the tri training. This one isn't the best since I have to swim today.

I've also decided that after today, if I'm not doing a CF workout that day, I'm not gonna have a blog entry here. No one from BT refers to this blog for mentoring anymore, so I am just gonna post workouts when I do them.
