Thank you!
Crazy fast row!
Warm up ✔️
Strength : 90/100/110/115/120/125 the last was a fight ?.
Workout : 5’50 = 2’31 row and WB were UB
with ACDC in the ears it is necessary to do unbroken ?
Nice work Thomas!!!! Glad I pushed you into doing it UB!!!! Once you get into a rhythm with it, I find it not too bad! ?
It would have been fun to watch you and Al do this metcon head to head! 100 UB Wall Balls is NO JOKE!
Aaaaaand this is where my UB attempt ends… not sure if even the threat of needles going into my ears if I stopped would’ve been enough to get to UB, fantastic job
UNBROKEN!!!!! Wow!
Warmup done
A. Tempo FS + 1FS 6 sets
Worked up to 105kg, perhaps could have done a little more in the end
B. FT
50cal row
100 WB shots @9kg
5’48
Off the rower @2’14 and paced myself so transition wasn’t too bad. WB shots went UB.
I admit, you pushed me to do the 100 UB ?
Ok…who rows 50 cals that fast and then does 100 UB wall balls…AL OF COURSE!! It would have been fun to see you and Thomas do this one head to head!! Outstanding work gentlemen!!
Haha, thanks Candy!! ?
Definitely Al.
Way to earn the wknd
Unbroken for the win!
A: up to 110kg (belted on last set)
B: first time doing wall balls in a wod and no rower atm so I took this as a chance to practice wall ball volume accumulation while fatigued. 50kcal ab (4:01) immediately into 10 wall balls emotm x8. Finish at 12:20! Unbroken in first few rounds but due to my shoulders being on fire i did drop a few times toward the end! Onward & upward
50 cal AB and then all those WB’s…impressive Mike! Wall Balls in a metcon is definitely something to work on…and it looks like you picked a great strategy to get you started!
Thanks! It’s been so long since I did “CrossFit” but I’ve upgraded my garage gym and now have space/equipment for most of the movements. One thing I’m trying to do is focus on quality and pacing rather than forcing myself to rx everytime and not finishing or haemorrhaging time in metcons after pushing too hard.
Great job with your squat pb and bigger sets of wb today!
