I have to admit I am kind of obsessed with the first workout of the Open. Is it because I didn’t do well on it? Well, kind of. I’m kind of fascinated with the idea that I can row efficiently and effectively for 14 calories with a little rest. But, once I throw some work in there, I turn into a slobbering mess.
So this is out second go at this one, with some differences, in the last 2 weeks. This time, with a gymnastics push. Instead of the DB, we will try the 1 arm Clean and Jerks with a KB. Switch hands after 5, just like 18.1 and the DB squats last week.
And then it’s back to the Rower for 14/12.
We will continue with a week of workouts and get into a strength progression next week.
