Ahh Tabatas. An interval that we all have a love hate relationship with.Â
With all that rest your mind starts to play tricks…the 20 seconds gets longer and longer and the 10 seconds get shorter and shorter. In the end, all you can do is grind it out and hope that 8th round comes soon.
Now here’s the best part, you can do a Tabata with ANY exercise. Yes that’s right, any exercise. So the next time you can’t make it in, or you’re on the road or whatever other “reason” you come up with for not going to SPARK, remember, there is always Tabatas…squats, pushups, sit ups, some type of jumping, sprinting etc. Any more excuses for not working out? I didn’t think so.
 Workout of the Day:
With a continuous running clock -
75 Snatch Balance - start light and get heavy as possible
Has this little guy been staring you in the face? Everytime a certain exercise comes up on the board do you get that sick feeling inside? THEN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!Â
I’ve seen the looks in some of your eyes and I ‘ve heard the comments: “I will never be able to do that” or “why am I not getting any better at …”. Here’s your answer, yes, you will be able to do ‘that’ and you’re not getting any better because you aren’t doing anything to fix it!
I know that for some of you those Dynamax balls stare you in the face everytime you come in, for others its the skipping ropes, pull ups, box jumps, push ups etc etc etc…
Don’t be afraid of that goat! Grab that little bugger by the horns and wrestle him down. Practice and practice and practice some more and eventually what you hate the most becomes your strongest skill.
We believe in you…yes, all of you. Its time for you to start believing in yourself.
Unless you write down a goal it is not a goal its a dream. Our goal for the fundraiser is $20,000.
All of the donations will be going to the Christmas Bureau of Edmonton to feed the less fortunate this Christmas. A worthy cause and one we would like to make a huge contribution to! The CBE has told me they need $1.5 million this year to help all of those in need. Remember folks, these aren’t people that are half a world away…these are our co-workers, neighbors and friends.
Remind those making pledges that anything over $10 will get a tax receipt. As well, if you happen to be visiting this page, feel free to call us and stop by to do your part.

Kim knows a lot about the body - how it works, how to push it and how to get the most out of it. He has worked with professional athletes and knows what it takes to be successful at that level. If you want to be faster, stronger and more powerful go to SPARK."
