How do you game your WODs?  When attacking a 2k row a good way to game it is to think of 4 different races in your head.  Each one is a fresh start to hold your ideal split, stick to a stroke rating, refocus and fight.  Today’s Rowing WOD is all about that mentality.  Before going into it be sure to warmup your deadlift and do a few bursts on the erg at the split you aim to hold for each piece.

Think of each set of deadlifts as a power 10 to walk through your opponents.  Drive those heels down, make that boat feel light, and crush them!

Drive through the heels!

Drive through the heels!

  1. 10:20 RX rd 1: 2:25, rd 2: 2:43 rd 3: 2:42, rd 4: 2:30 Wanted sub 10 min. Cycled through the deadlifts pretty easy (max dl 520lb) but it smoked my hamstrings and I had to spend the first 200m recovering before I could kick in the afterburners. Great wod. Rowing gooood, deadlifting goooood, working hard gooooood!!!
