ReplyDeleteDid this in the H2O:
200m, 150m, 100m, 50m swim
after each distance do this triplet:
50 squats,
20 DB thrusters
20 sit ups
Made it thru 2 rounds
Great job Steve!

ReplyDeletethis one was tough. The math whizzes (Jason, Jeff...) probably already knew this, but the wod is basically a 2k row, 150 box jumps, and "Karen" (150 wallballs). crazy business.
substituted 45# thrusters for wallballs
