This looks like a great and impressive set, but I’m not sure what the goal is. Force required to move that much weight is sure to knock it out of the oxidative / aerobic capacity of the muscles that the Tabata timing was designed for, definitely for the arms and probably for the legs. It’s got to be blowing out most of the muscle PC and glycogen stores, which can be a good thing.
Besides doing something really hard, what was the intent of the set?
I do thrusters with 20’s so this is shocking and embarrassing. Great form too.
Don’t sell yourself short- doing Thrusters with the 20’s is great work!
Dr Tabata’s original test involved the 20/10 protocol anaerobic work- hence all of the fuss regarding intervals for fat loss and metabolci conditioning. Interestingly, the Tabata protocol also showed marked increase in aerobic capacity over steady-state activity. This workout is simply a high intensity finisher or stand alone workout that is great for metabolic conditioning or fat loss. The difference between the two is really just the diet!
IMPRESSIVE!
i want to tone my muscles, not to have bulky ones, what weight should i use?
As heavy as you can use without hurting yourself. Getting bulky is hard to do unless you train specifically for it. A routine like this will make you stronger and give you more endurance, while reducing bodyfat to create a ‘toned’ appearance. “Toned”=strong muscles + low bodyfat %
damn ! i could probably do one set, thats it. lol
getting bulky has nothing to do with how much you lift, it has to do with how much youre feeding your muscles; aka calories. Smaller portions will keep your muscles smaller but still strong.
@italianzorro True. A calorie surplus lends itself to muscle gain
Great Stamina and strength…Excellent…
@italianzorro
It’s a bit more than an overstatement to say that getting bulky has nothing to do with how much you lift. In fact, it’s so big an overstatement as to be completely untrue.
Yes, people tend to neglect diet, so I can understand why you would say that, but what’s wrong is wrong. Lifting and diet go irrevocably hand in hand; lifting is 50% of effective hypertrophy and diet is the other 50%.
Wow. tremendous strength shown here. people who have never tried this have no idea how difficult this is. 35 pound dumbbells is extremely impressive, i thought 25’s were tough…jeez : )
@chairmanmao89
Upto 60% of your 1 RM. 30 secs rest between sets, 2-3 sets
HI, I read about a tabata workout including squats, push ups and pull ups. i didnt get if the exercises should be performed separately (4 minutes each), or alternately (20 secs each). can you help me on that? thanks
@amglpamglp You can really perform that workout either way. It will be more muscularly challenging to stick with the same movement for 4 minutes, but the heart rate response will be the same. Depends on your goal for that day. I hope this helps.
@amglpamglp it says u need to do 20 seconds of those and than after that, 10 second rest, than another 20 seconds, till its 4 minutes
@drjimmy73 yer thats 15 kilo weights man, its psycho shit aye. i hate tabatas myself
This is one bad chick.
what song is that ?
ok never mind. i’ve known that already.
The song is – Stop! by Ghost K
@italianzorro True if the “bulky” your after is fat, you could just eat sticks of butter all day and you’ll bulk up quick! lol Building muscle mass has a lot to do with the intensity of your workouts. You have to tax your muscles to break them down so they can be repaired. And not just any surplus of calories will build muscle. The quality of the calories count. A well balanced diet with quality calories and sufficient protein is necessary to build muscle mass.

Please give us more vids with Andrea. She is fit!
@scuba453 Will do!
