20 seconds of Banded Palloff Hold (Left)
20 seconds of Banded Palloff Hold (Right)
30 seconds of Banded Lateral Monster Walk (Left)
30 seconds of Banded Lateral Monster Walk (Right)

Six sets for times of:
500 Meter Row*
20 Unbroken Wall Ball Shots (30/20 lbs)

In short, you have 4 minutes to do 20 Wall Ball Shots, 4-7 muscle-ups and also rest before you hit your next 500 meter row. Your goal pace for each 500 meter interval is probably your 2000 meter PR Pace.

PM Session: Every minute, on the minute, for 8 minutes: Pause Front Squat x 1 reps @ 24X1 All sets at 245 Modified the WOD a bit for time and also because 155# thrusters would bury me on this one. Want to work on picking up a heavier thruster faster and if I used 155 I would have to rest a while… THREE sets for times of: 400 Meter Run 30 Deadlifts (135 lbs) 20 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups 10 Thrusters (135 lbs) 400 Meter Run Rest 3 minutes 6:30 7:25 7:55 Felt like I had sandbags attached to my legs on… Read more »

You should have started when the erg monitor read 4 minutes when it was set to “undefined rest”. So essentially if you rowed 1:51 your next set would start at 5:51

We’re you not able to hold your 2k PR pace?

Oki just to make sure I understand the Wod correct.
Let’s say I finish my 500 m row in 2 min then I have 4 min to do wallball and mu. And start the next 500m row on min 6

Yes if you select undefined rest on your 500m intervals as soon as you done it will start counting your rest, once you reach 4 min start again.

AM Session:

Two sets of:
20 minutes of Assault Bike @ 30-minute Max Calorie Pace
Rest 4 minutes

30 Min Max Calories = 328.6 (56 rpm-11 cal/min)
Goal for each 20 minute interval was 219-220 cals

1 – 231.5 (57 rpm)
2 – 226.2 (57 rpm)

Pretty sure my 20 min ME is 235 cals so I should be on track to PR that next week
