WOW - that recovery day yesterday was a nice needed break in the cycle. I do have to admit that until this week the 3 on 1 off idea never really fit in my scheme of training. Well thanks Coach Ord for showing me that every once in a while you better freaking rest!

Today is another great day of max effort on movements a run and a row.

5000m row as fast as possible
Max thrusters in 1 min 42.5/30kg
Max box jumps in 1 min 20in box
Run 1.5 mile

Day 3 of Assessment

Phew - we are close to our recovery day. I think I finally understand the 3 on 1 off deal.

4 x 250m row
3 x 500m row
2 x 1000m row

and then

4 x 200m run
3 x 400m run
2 x 800m run

Looking good guys!!!
