Absolute hell. So exhausting. Ten seconds isn't even enough time to put the handle down. I couldn't find a good game plan here. I tried to start rowing at the 9 second rest mark to get the rower going before it starting keeping track of the interval. This seemed to help with evidence from my last round, but, it left me more tired. Bottom line, rowing sucks.

PM:
50 double unders

25 pull ups
5 ground to overhead, 155 lbs
3 rounds

50 double unders

8:13

I saw this workout done by Tanya Wagner's husband Josh before the 09' games. I always wanted to try it but never felt ready. I have been working a lot lately on my pressing, cleaning and double unders so it was time to give this one a try. Josh Wagner did it in 6:01, a stellar time, I was shooting for sub 10. I was most worried about the ground to overhead which turned out to go much better then I imagined. I wouldn't say that I was worried about the double unders, but, in the back of my mind I was thinking "what if I start screwing up and can't get a rhythm??" I didn't let that bother me much because my comfort level with them is at an all time high. They went well. The first set was stopped at 31 because my rope hit a bench, I did the next 19 no prob. The final set I did 40 before I had to stop and rest. At about 25 I was in pain but dragged it out as long as I could, 15 more. Completing these so efficiently is a victory in itself, especially the second round because I was so fatigued.

The pull ups gave me the most trouble! I did the first set unbroken, the second set 15-10 and the third set 5-5-5-10. There was significant resting in between as well. Funny, the part I was least worried about ended up being my kyptonite.

The ground to OH went as well as they could. I felt strong on all of them. I tried to use my legs as much as I could, this helped me with the cleans but it burned. If I had to do any more then 5 reps a set, I think I would have been in trouble.
