Row out the Storm

Big storm dumping up to a foot of snow on us today. Good time to use my new rower, which I posted about over on nick.blog.

Conditioning

  • 250m Row
  • 25 Push-ups

Picked this from the BTWB bodyweight fitness level workouts and thought it seemed familiar. Turns out back in October 2013 I saw it on CrossFit.com and did it, getting 6 rounds plus 126 meters.

I looked at my 5k record pace and thought it would be good to hold something slightly faster, so I wanted to be around 1:50/500m. That was no problem, so I started picking it up in the last 2-3 rounds. All of my push-ups were 5×5 except for an unbroken set at the end. Crushed my old score by getting 7 rounds, the row, and 14 push-ups today.

Midline

8 Rounds (Tabata)

  • 20s Hollow Rocks
  • 10s Rest

Started with 20 for two rounds, then stopped the next five rounds at 15 reps, and held on for 17 at the end. Burn! 132 total reps. Didn’t realize it, but that’s a PR by 13 reps!
