WOD: One Hour Long Cycle

Workout
One hour, one-arm long cycle (16kg)


Result
Instinct Fitness decided to join their friends out in California for the One Hour Long Cycle charity event


I managed to keep a very consistent pace throughout, just about 8 reps/min finishing with 483 reps.  That was a long hour!  Kim also did a one-arm long cycle with a 16 and got 482 reps (slacker!).  Justin did a mix of singe/double long cycle starting with a 10 min set of double 24s (his comp weight for Detroit).  Jason did an hour of alternating ropes, nonstop!


All in all, my set wasn't that bad.  I managed to switch hands every 10 reps for the entire hour, which I'm happy with.  Less than a year ago, I couldn't do that for 20 minutes!  My muscles were definitely starting to get tired, but my feet and hands hurt the most.  Maybe I'll jump up to a 20kg bell next year..yeah, right!


Nap time...

  2. well it wasn't a bad sport workout, but being able to switch hands whenever makes it much easier...at least with a 16kg bell
