 not particularly well educated Member 85, 10988 posts SQ 170, BP 130, DL 260560.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | are you enjoying the lack of traffic on the rds , I went down the m40 to just outside London yesterday at rush hour and it was deserted , virtually no cars just vans and lorries! | ||

Walk your talk Member 5, 25558 posts Administrator | yea, driving a wagon on the motorway is made worse by nobheads who only go 50mph .....so in the current lockdown there are almost no bellends (old people) so driving is a dream !! I enjoyed todays session on the rower , its very nearly time for me to either grow a pair and do some proper training or carry on treading water | ||

Walk your talk Member 5, 25558 posts Administrator | so, that dude does an average of 111000 a day ?? that cannot be healthy ! found it ! at the moment i dont think i am going much over 30 as far as the PB goes - i was in much better form that that time , but i waited around for about 5 hours for my race , nervous energy nearly killed me and was only inspired to give it a go as you were watching ! https://i.ibb.co/hfZNtQP/birc-splits.jpg | ||

Walk your talk Member 5, 25558 posts Administrator | its the lack of power JT !! I also struggled to keep the SR as low as 26 I have linked my C2 logbook to my strava account (which creates its own image of the monitor) , I then upload that to an image host http://imgbb.com/upload and i link it on here. I used to just take a photo of the monitor after my workout and upload that. | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7865 posts | Perfect pacing on your 2k pb. My back has been somewhat "twangy" today perhaps it is the low rate big pulls. | ||

Did you speak to the Horseman? I heard he only took up rowing to get fit after packing in the fags imagine how supreme you would be at 6' 7'' In the crossfiit thing what other stuff did you do? | ||

Walk your talk Member 5, 25558 posts Administrator | Would love to be tall ! just like them long armed chimps deadlifting wondering what all the fuss is about !! sunday might be a nice day for torture ! I didnt really do the WOD's ...i was more a kettlebell enthusiast , if crossfit had caught my eye earlier on, i think i could have done pretty well | ||
