Set the damper on 1. I hard pull every 7 seconds nets you 3 cals a pull. Gets you all 19 cals in about 45 seconds. Had a couple guys improve 60 reps after doing it normal then with “cheating” way lol.
19.2 will be 17.1.. dB snatch and burpee box jump

We have heard the myth and we have debunked it with all our rowers at our gym and had friends try that at other gyms and have never found one it works on.

Concept 2. They said it’s a hard pull. Only 1 girl was able to do it. I didn’t see it in person but my buddy told me all about it. Said it’s for real. Most people did it normal at the Friday night lights. It came up and some people did it on Monday and killed it. One guy in our range at 7 rounds + 4 improved it to 8 + 35 on Monday. These are definitely older rowers as well.

I’ll try and get some video of it next time I’m there. I was shocked about it as well.

Not sure. It’s a glitch in the computer somehow. I always move my dampener around. I kept it around 5/6 on this one. I knew my legs were going to blow up on the wall.

For the guys/gals doing these WODs.
Is that the only workout you are supposed to do for the entire day? Or are you mixing it into a routine and crossing out the muscle groups you used in the WOD. Not that it doesn't seem taxing but it seems very short to me. For example today is sets of push presses or push jerks. Is that all you would do and then call it quits?

Check out this one, http://crossfitnewengland.com/wods-news/
Theirs is more in line with what a typical gym will do. I have been to 3-4 different gyms and most seem to run the same 1 hour class structure..
15mins warm up and stretch
15 mins to perform a lift
And then a workout from 10-20mins.

TShelly, how would you know what 19.2 is when it does not get released until tonight?
