"Tabata Something Else"
Complete 32 intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by ten seconds of rest where the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals are squats. There is no rest between exercises.

Record your total reps from all 32 intervals. Usually we've scored this one the same as "Tabata This," i.e., we've just counted the lowest score rep score from each exercise and added those four numbers to get our total score. This time we're going with how the main site prescribes it.

379

Pull-ups were pretty solid - over half were butterfly. Squats were a bit disappointing. Push-ups were on knuckles due to the wrist.

Pull-ups: 72
Push-ups: 74
Sit-ups: 104
Squats: 129

446 (PB)

I tried something a little different this time. Rather than go to failure each round I paced out the sets, thinking I could continue to hold an average across the time. The hope was to increase overall work output. Previous best was 429. The only interval this did not work on was the pull-ups.
Pull: 79
Push: 82
Sit: 119
Squat: 166

I too jacked up my wrist. Mine was on Turkish get-ups. Yours?

Nice job on the Tabata score! Now I have a new (and sadly much higher) goal to shoot for.

I think I messed it up on snatch last Wednesday. Very annoying as I can't do any movements involving a bent wrist, i.e., barbell pressing movements, cleans, jerks, snatches, OHS, front squats, etc. Pretty much all the fun stuff.

Most stuff with a straight wrist is ok - so push-ups on the knuckles are fine, and if I do any pressing or cleans with DBs, I can keep a straight wrist. Ah well, it's getting better, just not as quickly as I'd like.
