2K Row throwdown part Deux?


Dudes, decided to do a 2K row today and went for a PR (previous was 7:15) on sheer will power, cos I definitely am not feeling 100%.


Got it done, 7:10, man I want sub 7, but it seems like a death wish away. I wanted to quit mid way. I am still totally shaking, dizzy, and just feel whacked. Rowing hard crushes you, man what a challenge it is!!!
Chris is coming out here in a few weeks and will get his first taste!

Angie

If we get any more guys to with us, then we'll have so many birds you won't be able to see who is in the picture. No Angie for me today, but worked on some hand eye coordination instead.

(Added by Fletcher)

Buddy emailed me this, found it on the site I'm sure. I'm fired up. I'm resting today, and doing this tomorrow AND in the same day I am doing a nasty 1,800 foot climb single track mountain bike ride, that by itself is a totally brutal workout. Let's get it on.

Personally, I think that hero workouts should always be done RX'd to honor the hero.
The added pain should be endured with the sacrifice the hero (in thsi case Daniel) made in mind; this should help you push just a bit farther than you normally would. If you need to scale to complete the workout then scale, but only make the decision to do so as you puke into a bucket or can feel your eyes bulging out while trying to consider one more rep. Everyone should go into this full speed, no pre-scaling, and give it their best shot.

Front Squats

5x3

(From Fletcher) took a video to check form on my PR of 240x3 (wimpy, but I'll get better). This always helps. I tilt forward when it gets heavy..... gotta be more aware of that next time.

Pre-trip G.I. Jane

Hey guys, still reluctant to throw the barbell around since I have to fly for 15-16 hours today, worried I'll jack the back. So instead I did "G.I. Jane." 100 burpee pullups for time. I've never seen it come up, and I've always been intrigued by it so thought I'd try it out. First time doing even a single burpee pullup, my motion was not so fluid. My time sucked, almost 19 minutes, but whatever, I was tired this morning (smallest kid up a lot). Waaaaaaaa goes the baby.

Here's a video of the final 10 reps from my phone. Burpee form again was starting to fail with head coming down, but these are reps 91-100, with two more at the end in case I didn't count right. I did try hard to touch my chest and chin to the floor every time, but started to waiver a little toward the end. I know, I'm wearing gloves. My hands are torn up from lotsa pullups lately. My garage pullup bar is exactly 8 feet off of the ground too, it's way on up there. I'm 6'4" and I have to jump to it.

There's a guy they call "bionic" on the main site videos that does this in like 11 minutes. That's just stupid, or I'm a puss, or I'm old, or something. And I'd be lying if I didn't admit that around rep 60 or so I thought about quitting... but I sucked it up, because there is this little voice in our heads that tells us we HAVE TO, right? Hell ya.
