    Sorry guys, while this one looks fun, I am on rest til Sunday I am running a 5k obstacle race, and need to be not sore or worn out for it.

    It's called Run for your Lives, and 'zombies' chase you! So excited!

    Just starting out 10:16 run/walk with a Tabata score of 6 with 2 5lb dumbells, should I be using heavier weights even for just beginning?

      No, start with 5 lb dumbbells and work your way up.

    When you say a workout is with 20#s and you're using dumbells, do you use 10 in each hand or 20# in each hand, totaling 40?
