Focus on form

Rowing ‘all out’ with terrible form is significantly harder than rowing ‘at a good pace’ with great form.

In 6 minutes, row 750m.
With the remaining time, as many reps as possible of overhead walking lunges.

Compare to March 3/11

We had the big doors open just last week!

    Need to work on rowing technique. I liked the lunges.

  5. Chose the Bench Press wod

    10 sets of 3 reps:

    75-85-95-105-115-120-125-130-120-120

    My previous 3 reps max was 135 which I didn’t match today. Ring dips wod two days ago is probably the reason why.

    In other news, I checked in with my nutritionist yesterday. Lost 4 lbs. 20 to go. Wish me luck…

  14. modified WU x 2

    WOD: Bench press

    55-65-75-85-95-105-110-115(got 2 and failed last one) Previous PR was 125 for 2.

  15. mobility
    2 rounds – 10 squats, 10 ring row, 20 lunges, samson stretch

    WOD: Rowing Analysis
    In 6 minutes, row 750m.
    With the remaining time, as many reps as possible of overhead walking lunges.

    Row: 2:33.5
    Lunges: 40 @ 45#

    That was awful. I don’t know if it’s because the row was in a warmer room, but I had a hard time breathing during the lunges.

  16. WU x 2: (squats x 10, ring row x 10, lunges x 20, samson stretch)

    Rev. Hyper Extension 2×10

  19. Bench Press 3RM –> 95-135-145-155-165-175(PR for reps)-185(failed at 2nd rep)

    Great time tonight everyone!

  20. Rowing & Lunges WOD:

    In 6 minutes:
    750 Row & then AMRAP Lunges with 25Lb. overhead
    62 lunges.

    Better than I expected. Legs were like jello, but I liked this WOD.

  21. Mobility x 1
    WU x 2 – 10 squats/10 ring rows/20 lunges/samson stretch

    WOD: Bench Press 3RM
    45(10)-65-85-95-105-115-125-135(1)-130(1)-130(2)

    Had no idea what to expect with this WOD. It has been years since I have done bench press with a bar (used to use dumbbells a lot). The heaviest weight I was able to lift tonight for 3 reps was 125#. My 1RM (from the above numbers) is 135#.

    We should do bench press more often. Like it 🙂

  23. MOBILIY, WU,

    Practice rowing form….just what the doctor ordered, thanks for the coaching Kevin. I knew my form had gone to shit in recent months, just wasnt sure why. Its corrected now…..when do I get my rematch Marc!!!

    Rowing WOD….52 lunges.

    Great workin out with ya Jay, hell of a score Kevin.

    1. You can’t just go for the title shot like that. You need to deserve it first. So you’ll need to win a few races before the rematch.
