5 rounds for time:
250m row
15 burpees


A. 140 (PR+2)
B. 23
+
12:31


Really happy with the bench press PR, I was not expecting that today. 140 felt really easy but I failed 145. I am a little disappointed with the pull ups, I would have liked to get closer to 30. My grip is what failed me, I couldn't hang on to the bar anymore. 23 is the most butterfly pull ups I have ever done in a row, so that's good, but I still would have liked to get 30. The row/burpee workout went better than I thought, I figured I would be around 15:00 so I was happy with my time, but it was still too slow. I think I went out too slow on the first set of burpees, I was trying to pace myself since I knew I had 4 more rounds to go. I felt like I was moving the whole time and my transitions were quick but my burpees were too slow. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up the pace Saturday for the competition, I don't want to let Jeff down and have him end up doing all the work on this workout to make up for my lack of speed.
