Tabata Squats and A Bit of a Jerk

Warmup
  • Overhead squats
  • Medball Clean and press
  • 1 Arm Kettlebell Swing
Tabata Squats
-8 sets of 20 sec work/10 sec rest. Take the lowest number of squats in any set as your score.

To see what is possible with a bit of training and perhaps also being born with titanium knees, check this video out. It's a little slow to load. Pause the top right vid and watch the middle one.
