Thoughts: this is an endurance workout so try to move consistently and constantly for the 4 min of work required as you have 1 min of built in rest in between sets.

As in any endurance workout try to avoid coming out too hot out of the gate. Try to find a pace that allows you to move both continuously and consistently for 4 min....

For a workout like this, a hallmark of good pacing would be being able to move for 45- 55 seconds per minute and to maintain the same numbers of reps for each minute....

For an endurance workout - your output/intensity should will be conservative and consistent for the first 60% of the workout. After the halfway mark will be time to evaluate whether you need to maintain the same pace, slow down or speed up!

Listen to your body and if after round 4 you feel you have more energy to burn... pick up the pace by adding more reps per round... if you feel breakfast or the previous nights dinner may come back up... slow down and reduce reps and stick to the moving consistently for 45 seconds .... if you feel comfortably challenged- keep that same pace up!!!!

As always... good luck and have fun!
