Row 5,000 meters
This is a good benchmark to measure progress. Remember to drive with the legs first; after the legs are straight, lean back slightly, then pull with the arms. The opposite needs to occur on the return. Arms straighten, lean forward slightly, then bend the legs. Pacing is more important than going out hard. If there is a “pace boat” option on the monitor, use that to help meet the goal of finishing under 20 minutes. Record the time to completion to measure progress.
25:19.7
Notes: The last 1000m felt like the first 4000m. I slogged my way through this -- was pulling too much with my arms. Set damper at 5 and pace boat to 2:12/500m.

AMRAP 8 minutes:
D-Ball Clean (100lbs)
28 reps
Notes: This workout is going to be strenuous for your mind, and body. It is good if you set yourself a goal beforehand. Set a goal to finish x amount of reps each minute. Keep that pace up for the next 8 minutes.
Goal was 40 reps (4 per minte). As mentioned above, this is a stressful workout -- both physically and mentally. I need to just focus on picking up the bag, taking a breath and stepping right back in and picking it back up again.
