Row, Burpee, Run

Workout 9 May 2009:

3 rounds for time of:
Row 500 meters
21 Burpees
Run 400 meters

Results: 23'18 (run on treadmill, 1% incline)
Previous best: none

This was a new workout and the hotel gym was actually well-equipped for it since the C2 rower was right next to a treadmill. I went in hoping to complete the workout in less than 25 minutes, so I'm happy with the results. As always, the hardest part of this workout is the burpees. There is nothing pleasant about them and they pretty much just suck all the energy out of you.

Mark Rippetoe Quote of the Day:
On the possibility of a failed deadlift resulting in stroke:
"Deadlifts that are too heavy to pull generally don't take very long; the bar just kinda lays there. So if trying to move immovable objects was dangerous from the standpoint of stroke, the history of the human race would be littered with stupid people's corpses."
