Wednesday, July 29: The 50 Cal. Revisited



Just Give it a try and see what you think, that is if you feel lucky.... So do ya, punk!

"The 50 Cal"

5 Rounds for time of:

Start with the number 50 and subtract your max ring dip or pull-up reps. This new number will be the calories you must row in order to end the round, both numbers combined totaling 50. Note reps, calories and time for each round.

***Each round followed by 3 minutes of rest***

Jacob (04/23/09)
Round 1: 1:16 30RD/20 Cal.
Round 2: 1:35 20RD/30 Cal.
Round 3: 1:35 23RD/27 Cal.
Round 4: 1:41 21RD/29 Cal.
Round 5: 2:14 14RD/36 Cal.

Jacob (07/29/09)
Round 1: 1:16 34RD/16 Cal.
Round 2: 1:26 27RD/23 Cal.
Round 3: 1:37 25RD/25 Cal.
Round 4: 1:39 22RD/28 Cal.
Round 5: 2:12 15RD/35 Cal.

I am pumped that I was able to actually improve on this one, and I didn't even look to see what I was trying to beat. I just gave it my best and my best was better than it used to be, enough said.

20 Minute rest then:

8 Rounds of: (Not for time!)
10 Straight Bar Curls, 95lbs
5 Weighted Pull-ups, 56lbs

Also I would like to congratulate Nate and Shane for not dying upon completion of this WOD, it truly is a merciless experience from start to finish.

Nate:
There really is no reason to post my breakdown for this workout since it's all in black and white (well, orange and white) in the photo. All I know is this is the first workout in a long while to leave me hurting for at least an hour after the workout. By the end of round 3 I was already in pending digestive track reversal. I can't imagine what tomorrow is going to feel like...
