Tabata! Except it wasn't. I showed up for class and no one else did. Bummer. The instructor was very apologetic and asked if we could just skip it tonight. She had a meeting she would need to run to at the end of the class and since I was the only one there we decided that we'd call it.
She did get me to do a version of Tabata on my own though. I used the elliptical and the recumbent to do intervals similar to Tabata. I didn't sweat quite as much as I normally do but I still felt that I got a workout that was worth the time spent. So I basically did 20sec hard with 10sec easy. I also ramped up the levels so that it wasn't easy. Next week back to normal. This week was a weird Tabata plan overall.
Breakfast: Two eggs on a skinny bun with tomato and avocado. 20oz of cold water.
1st snack: Greek yogurt and 24 almonds
Lunch: Low carb tortilla, falafel, tomato, hummus, tahini, lettuce. Pasta salad.
Dinner: Protein drink. Greek yogurt with Chia seeds, jerky, small handful Wasabi trail mix, and three slices of roast beef. The roast beef came a bit later after dinner as I was still feeling hungry. That seemed to work as I was able to feel not hungry.
So the fake tabata was actually a good workout and I was happy with it. If the instructor hadn't pushed a little bit I'd have probably gone home early. So good job Angie!
