1 minute at each of the following stations:

Tabata squats
Run 1 mile
Tabata squats

To score the workout, take the sum of your Round 1 and Round 2 Tabata scores and divide by the time for the mile. So if you scored 20 on the first round of Tabata squats and 15 on the second round, and ran a 5-minute mile, your score would be (20 + 15) / 5 = 7.

4 rounds, 1 minute each station, 1 minute rest between rounds:

Scoring is just like Fight Gone Bad. Count the number of repetitions you perform within the 1 minute period. For the rower, use your calorie mode. At the end, add up all your numbers for the 4 rounds.
