Wednesday Workout

Done @ Crossfit 77 with Angela (looking to compete in 40+) and Sydney (recent college grad, ex soccer player, looking to do an Rx competition). Had great discussions on rowing technique, percentage based effort, and some competition strategy. The girls were within 10-15m of my scores on every round. Both are taller than me.

Row 1 min @ "just" below max effort
Rest walk 5 min x 6
(record meters per minute)

281m <-- rower was set to 2 instead of my normal 7 so I lost a bit of power to that until Sydney fixed it for me
293m
287m
281m
272m
275m

Average s/m was 35 and average pace was about 1:45/500m
Wasn't expecting quite so much of a dropoff. I guess I went harder than I thought because the last 20 secs of the 5th and 6th rows I was getting that 'drunk-can't-coordinate-my-arms-and-legs' feeling. I figured it was okay to do this workout all out though since it was rowing.

Plan for tomorrow is 30mins super light cardio (airdyne/running/rope skipping) and some stretching or yoga. Friday half day of work then driving down the house in Folly Beach. MamaBear is coming so we'll be fully loaded with every supply you could ever possibly need. I just can't forget my pillow.

  1. Sounds like a good training day with friends. Nice.
    Check your list and bags twice before you leave. Plan nutrition well. Remember your pillow.
