4 Rds + 15 cal row Rx’d
Did 1:1 work to rest, worked out by myself.
3:45, 3:45, 3:35, 3:38
Was able to do 11 DL, 1DL+8HPC, 1HPC+6STOH last two rounds, that’s why time was better. First 2 rounds weren’t broken up as neatly.
Solid way to break up DT. I’ll keep that rep scheme in mind next time.
Thanks, man. You too. Def easier than DT with the built in rest.
Did this workout with a crew of 5, waterfall, One rower. 2 barbells (one RX) at the fire house. Planned for 45 minutes or 5 rounds.
Got a full response at 3 rounds.
0 desire to start again after returning.
Enjoy the weekend! ??
Props to you! Oh and good work on the Wod too 🙂
