  • Row + Bench ladders - Row 500 m, Bench BW x 30, Row 1K, Bench BW x 20, Row 2K, Bench BW x 10 Workout

    M/ 38/ 134 lbs/ 5'-6"
    As Rx: 23:55
    This was a tough WOD.. it didn't help me that I was kind of tired from last night's WOD, that i did more work than was Rx'd. I did the 50 pullups, 75 situps, i ddi 75 OHS w/ 75 lbs & 75 DUs for 2 Rounds the night before.
    Well, for me, everything ws feeling fine on this WOD, until the 2K Row... I was feeling that from about 250 m. into the WOD... seriously. Not sure why, but I was zapped. I played with the damper a bit but i was a bit zapped. I basically did the rows in about 1:54, 4:15, and 8:40.. really fell off on the 2K.. I hobbled over and finished the benching.. I felt pretty good on the bench.. I never have a spot and use 135 lbs, so I basically stop when I'm getting close. At the end it would be nice to go for one more rep every once in a while. I was trying to concentrate on really getting a super solid base and then using my whole body... I did feel my legs drive and my entire back tight to the bench.. much more solid. I have been feeling my shoulders from a lot of pushups lately, but this felt fine.
    I broke up the bench as follows: 30 (10,7,7,6) 20 (8,6,4,2) 10 (7,3)
    A little stretching and then home.. My butt and hams were super tight until about 10 minutes of stretching afterward.
    Great WOD.

    21 Box jumps 20in

    4th Rx this week! Deadlifts felt fine, was able to do them all unbroken. Can prob move to 120# for future workouts.

    Notes for rower efficiency - treat it like a dead lift, count 1 - 1, 2, work on getting in a rhythm with the fan, give the belt time to wind up before pulling, Don't just watch what's left distance wise on the screen, watch your s/m and avg. BIG pulls.
