Tabata Cards
How to play:
– Using the Tabata clock, the athlete turns over three cards and has 20 seconds to study. At the :20 mark, the athlete turns the three cards face down for 10 seconds. Immediately after the 10-second rest, the athlete has 20 seconds to study a new set of three cards, followed by a 10 second break (in which the cards are turned face down.) Continue for eight rounds, keeping each set of three cards separate. After eight rounds the athlete attempts to accurately recall as many cards as possible in order, for a maximum score of 24.
Rules:
- The athlete must name the card before turning it face up. A correct match equals 1 point.
- The athlete turns the cards over in the same order they were given.
Scoring:
The number of cards correctly recalled out of 24 = total.
