Perhaps for one or two rounds. As I read the programming I went straight from the rower to DU and MU, no rest. The only rest came after the MU on odd minutes. I was getting ~:20 rest and used that to get back to the rower and get ready to start the even minute. Did I get the rest scheme right?

Hi! I don’t know what Tino and Hunter are going to say about this. However as a nurse I can tell you that fever can be caused by severe dehydration. Make sure you are drinking enough fluids specially on hot days. If the fever continues, even though you increase your fluid intake a lot, I would recommend that you seek medical assistance to exclude some kind of infection and maybe get some IV fluids to correct the dehydration.

Sounds like you’re doing to much and not letting your body recovery. Take tomorrow off. Rest, hydrate, eat well and get some extra sleep!

Sabrina is a good person to get an answer from as a nurse. If you are consistently feeling that way after training then it probably comes down to water and food. If you know you are doing good there then try not to push yourself too far in to deep sickness.

A. Done
B. Done. Max RPM was 90
C. 15-12-12-11-11-11-10-10-10-11 cals and 30 DU + 2 bar muscle ups. No chalk so opted for bar but if I had done ring I think I would have stared at the rings too long anyways so it was probably for the best. I am REALLY happy I finished this workout!
D-E. Will finish later today.

We’ve been doing a lot of our training at an Alpha studio lately and apparently the chalk privileges there have been revoked… will have to either sneak some in or write an angry letter! ??
