Workout of the Day

97

10 rounds for time of:
60-foot sandbag bear-hug carry
7/10-calorie Echo bike

Rest 1 minute between rounds.

Post total time and load to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you'll take on 10 sprint-style efforts with a short break after each round. The loading for the workout is up to you, so choose a weight for the sandbag carry that is challenging but will allow for unbroken sets for all 10 rounds. If there is no sandbag available, perform the carry with two kettlebells in the rack position. Complete the Echo bike calories in 45 seconds or less each round; scale volume if needed to do so. Push the pace from the start.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx'd.

Beginner option:
7 rounds for time of:
60-foot medicine-ball bear-hug carry
5/7-calorie Echo bike

Rest 1 minute between rounds.

Completed this 1/17 in the morning at the Y. No echo bike or sandbags available. Rower calories (10) and heaviest KBs they had in front rack for walks (45lbs). Was short on time so omitted any rest and just did 10 rounds straight through.


11:03.


i thought about a minute per round wasn’t too bad but there are some stud times being posted!

15:30. 53+70KB in the front rack. Kept the echo bike cadence between 81 and 84. All rounds at or just below 0:40. Last three rounds I'd just close my eyes on the bike and pedal as hard as I could because I couldn't stand how "slowly" the calories were accumulating :)

Used a 60lb striking bag for carries and subbed row for bike (no Echo/Assault bike at home). C2 drag split 5/6, probably a 36-37 s/m and +1800 cal/hr avg, all rows 21 to 22 sec.

Traveling…now in the Rockies. Access to a full service gym this time.

5 rounds

~40 yard sled push

10 cal row

1-3 min break btwn rounds, as I was sharing the sled.

17:02


Then minor PC practice 10-10-10

20-30-40 kg


I love this rec center, but hard to get a higher intensity workout in when sharing with more casual workouters. Perhaps why many don’t like CFers!

The sled is interesting. On wheels, loaded with 270#, and controls to create more friction in the wheels. A Torque Tank M4 contraption. Can be a great functional exercise tool.

Did this outside, no room for 60ft carry inside & no flat place for rower outside, so rowed 7 cals, which took 20 seconds & subbed equivalent time of burpees (7 per round) Sandbag is duffel style -75 lbs.

15:49- no rest, trying to beat impending snow storm.

i wonder if zercher carries would have felt more similar to sandbag and allowed me to go heavier. Maybe next time.
