Sunday, June 13: Squat 6X5 and 500m Row PR


Well today I wanted to squat and take it easy, but after watching Evan row a 1:25.9 for a 500m I just had to give it a try myself. I was pleased to say the least. I was able to match him and row a 1:25.9, I really think the key was to pull hard and long with each stroke and to secondly pull fast, breathing deep and controlled on each stroke. Normally I'm in the mid to high 20's for my strokes per minute, but Evan pulled a 34/Spm so I went a little quicker then I usually do and it paid off. I don't know why the rower logged both Evan and my 500's as being 1:26.0, but we both saw the time once we were done, oh well.
