Shoulder Presses and Rowing

General — Tags: , , — Tim Nowaczyk on October 13th, 2009

We continued our shoulder press strength workout today, stepping up the weight, and decreasing the number of reps.  I did five sets of 3 reps with a weight of 89#.  I had poor-ish form, but got every rep, except the very last one.  I guess I had the perfect weight.  This puts my 1RM at about 120#

The WOD was 5 minutes of Tabata intervals (20sec work / 10 sec rest) on the rower using total calories as the score.  I know I’m a pretty strong rower, so I looked at the scores and thought that I’d try to do at least 7 cal per interval.  My first round was 8, and I had 9 cal on a few.  Total score: 84.  Tired but happy.
