Row 5,000 meters 

This is a good benchmark to measure progress. Pace it flat, keep the rating up, the last 1000 try to rate higher, sprint the last 300/500m.

First 1000 should feel easy, around 3000 in in starts to get tough, breathing will be hard, 4000 is probably a tad slower, last 1000 you should be able to bring it home. Should be the fastest split.

22:44.6

For Time:
20 Power Snatches 155/105
5 Burpees every minute on the minute, starting at 0:00

The Power Snatch can be on the heavy-ish side today. However, you should still be able to do at least 3-5 reps per minute on the slow end.

9:58 

Notes: Used 135lb. for the workout, which in hindsight was too heavy. That is 90% of my max and I wasn't able to get anymore than 4 reps in a single set. Should have scaled down to 115-125lb with the goal of finishing sub-5:00 minutes.

8:54
Deadlift 10-5-3-1-1-1-3-5-10 reps

Start with a PVC, move to an empty barbell and increase the load over the course of several warm-up sets. All working sets should be challenging, but with good mechanics. Between 60-70%, 80-85%, and 90-95% of a recent 1-rep max is a good goal for the first set of 10, 5, and 3. Try for a new 1-rep max on the second single and see how close you can get to your first sets on the second time through the 3, 5, and 10 rep sets.
