Hi there... Would like to know your thoughts about it and if you add then to your training routine? For instance once a week, once in a month...
Have searched in the Forum, but only found examples of HIIT training and not really about the Tabata protocol (warm up, 8x20s+10s active rest and warm down).
Yesterday I did it for the first time, it was really painfull, when it was the 5th interval it was hurting pretty bad, I was able to finish all the 8 sets, just to see watts dropping from 612 to 483.
What are your experiences? Thanks!
I thought about this more and wanted to ask, is that your beginning peak or an actual average over all 20 seconds?
I'm pretty sure the local Cat 3 or even faster crit boys aren't doing Tabatas with an average for a 4min (8x 30sec) set of close to 400w including the 10s rest and 20s peaks.
