32 Tabata intervals (20 sec work / 10 sec rest): 8 x Pull-Ups, then 8 x Push-Ups, then 8 x Sit-Ups, then 8 x Air Squats, with no break between movements. Score is total reps across all 32 intervals.
Primary movement: Bodyweight Tabata
Tabata Something Else strings four back-to-back Tabatas - pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, squats - into 16 minutes of 20-seconds-on, 10-seconds-off intervals, scored as total reps. Unlike a true Tabata (where the lowest interval counts), here every rep adds up, which turns it into a strategy problem: sprint the early intervals of each movement and die, or find the output you can clone eight times. The push-up Tabata is the famous graveyard - by interval five, gravity has usually doubled.

Where does your Tabata Something Else land?
Log it once and the app places you on this table automatically, then tracks the trend.
Target the number you can hold for all eight intervals, minus one: if you can sprint 15 pull-ups, plan 9-10 per interval. Push-ups are the crux - open at 10-12 even though 20 feels available, because intervals 6-8 at 3 reps wreck totals. Sit-ups and squats are rhythm stations: find a cadence that fills exactly 20 seconds. Use each 10-second rest deliberately: hands off the floor, two breaths, reset. Score by movement to find your weakest Tabata for next time.
Scaled: ring rows, knee push-ups, sit-ups and squats in the same 32-interval format. The format needs no other modification - it self-scales by output.
