Day 6 - Hero WOD "Thompson"

Josie picked a SealFit WOD for today which also happened to be a Hero WOD. I had done this workout about 4 years ago. Honored to have done it again. First part of the SealFit WOD though was

Baseline:

3 Rounds:

10 Goblet Squats 35#

10 Ring Rows

1:00 Ski Erg

Then, "Thompson"

10 Rounds for Time: Finished in 45:25! (An almost 15 minute PR!)

1 Rope Climb (15 ft)
29 Back Squats (95 lbs)
10 Meter Barbell Farmer Carry (135 lbs)

* *Begin the Rope Climbs seated on the floor.

I think I went so much faster this time because I used trainer bars for the Farmer Carries (they are shorter) and Dirk tied the ends together with a red band so they didn't move so much! The squats were definitely the toughest part - just sooo many!! ******************************** In honor of U.S. Army Captain David J.
