Tabatas (sort of)


Kirsten does a row-by.

Out at 8am after a good sleep-in, Kirsten and I hit the singles for a Tabata workout.  Thats 8 intervals of 20 seconds all out with 10 seconds of rest in between.

It was kind of a cock-up all the way around.  I have a Speedcoach app on my iPhone - love it!  The only problem which I didn't figure out until this evening was that the ringer was switched off, so no sound.  No alarm signaling the end of each interval and the display was not quite bright enough to see in the sun.  I was mostly guessing on the start and stop of each interval.  The bad news is that the workout was not a true Tabata, nor is the data an accurate reflection of my effort.  The good news is that I still got a good workout of some kind!

Kirsten probably got a more consistent workout without a Speedcoach just by counting strokes.  No data, of course.

Here's the data, such as it is.
