Props to NSCF Rowing Club for hitting the 2k on Saturday!

2 x 15′ w/ 5′ Rest

• 5′ @ 18

• 5′ @ 20

• 5′ @ 22

Saturday we kicked off the Renegade Rowing League by crushing a 2k.  Results are in and are in the process of being formatted and posted online.  Many thanks to those who participated and I look forward to seeing everyone’s progress when the second 2k of the RRL takes place in December.  The rowing club from North Shore CrossFit rowed a 2k from their box on Saturday and hopefully we’ll get them to come join us in Boston for an even bigger event in December.

Today’s Rowing WOD is a chance to work on Rhythm and Timing while building some aerobic endurance.  In long chippers rowing can be used as active recovery and a chance to catch your breath.  Try to find the efficient rhythm and consistent pressure you’ll need to recover mid WOD.  Every five minutes the rating will change to keep you focused.  Try to fix one part of your stroke each five minutes.  Your effort level on this should be such that you can get out sentences to a neighbor, but breathing is labored.

Post your distance rowed each piece!
