Welcome

a space where I will rant about: baseball, fitness training, MMA, comic books, video games, philosophy, politics, society, and general assclownery.
NOTE: I annotate all my lifting as weight x reps x sets, so 200x3x5 would be 200lbs done for three repetitions for five sets.

WOD 11.17.08 Hellerg

The mainsite WOD was Helen, but it is cold and dark outside and dodging traffic for the 400m runs sounded like a bad idea so we did Helerg, with 400m rows substituting for the runs.

"Helerg"
Three rounds for time:
Row 400 meters
1 1/2 pood (35kg/53lb) Kettlebell X 21 swings
12 Pull-ups

Time 8:49

I broke things up as follows (times and reps)
Rows were 1:18, 1:34, 1:31
KB: 21, 21, 8/7/6
Pull-ups: 12,12,12

The kettlebell slipped on the last round which led to my first break and I let that get to my head so I punked out and took that second break. Otherwise I felt it went really well, moving between stations was about all the rest I needed, I'd like to attack the row more next time. Still need work on my technique but thankfully 400m is short enough to bull through.
