"Tabata This"

Tabata Intervals (20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest repeated 8 times) Rower (calories), Squat, Pull-ups, Push-ups and Sit-ups with a one minute rotation break between exercises. Each exercise is scored by the weakest number of reps (calories on the rower) in each of the eight intervals. Score is the total of the scores from the five moves.
