Rows - 1:46.5, 1:47.5, 1:48.5, 1:47.5......the prescribed 1:45 was a bit aggressive but I tried. Pleased with what I could get. The rest periods I did stay on goal at below 2:15. 

AB - 1:31, 1:27, 1:26, 1:23.....again, the prescribed 450 watts was aggressive, I held between a 409-425. just wanted to be consistent and build faster if I could. 

A1-B3. Completed. just trying to move better, no pain, so all good, keep it coming.

Good response to keep intensity high and unbroken. Hang snatch pulled me around a bit. Everything else felt really good. rested 3min before DUs, 2:11 for the 200.
