12/11/14

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to be on the clock utilizing the Tabata protocol in series of strength and conditioning movements.  The theory behind the this timed training is to mimic "game like" situations.  Go for broke, and leave nothing in the tank to up your conditioning levels. 
From Wikipedia:
"A version of HIIT was based on a 1996 study[8] by Professor Izumi Tabata (田畑泉) et al. initially involving Olympic speedskaters.[9] The study used 20 seconds of ultra-intense exercise (at an intensity of about 170% of VO2max) followed by 10 seconds of rest, repeated continuously for 4 minutes (8 cycles)."

8 rounds of 20 seconds of work / 10 seconds of rest
step ups
ropes
swings
BB jump squats
medicine ball smashes
frog hop squat thrusts

Cool down, have a nice day... El Rey always..
