Saturday 120512

Not a lot of advice here. This workout sucks. I personally think it is much worse than regular tabata because there is less muscle failure in this version. I don’t program FGB usually because we’ve previously done it once a year for the fundraiser, and because most folks do it in foundations. But since there is a new fundraiser workout this year, I figured we would throw in a version and take this opportunity to tell you to sign up for the Crossfit for Hope Fundraiser on the Mall.
