My first video ever...

After some technical issues yesterday, I finally got it right. I present to you my first ever youtube video...

Row, row, row your boat...

Yo water lovers!
I finally got to blog a little again. The easter holiday has been somewhat busy, since i decided to move in with my girlfriend. We sure did a lot of functional training, emptying and cleaning my old appartment.
The weather in Denmark has been fantastic all week, so we worked hard to get through the moving stuff and to be able to enjoy the sun.
I haven't had much time to do crossfit lately and i think that it shows on my Games Open results. I'm only competing to gather some good scores for the Butcher's Garage Team, so it really doesn't matter, but still i hate sucking at anything. I really screwed up the first WOD and that has had me trailing behind ever since. Friday i did my first decent result, finishing 6th in the european region with a score of 385 on WOD 5.
Yesterday, my girlfriend and I went to the naval base in the harbour of Copenhagen and grabbed a rowing boat from the naval pentathlon course and set out to do a little CrossFit Submerged WOD.

As i said, the weather was fantastic and doing a rowing workout was absolutely perfect. So here is the WOD.

3 rounds
200m row
20 V-situps
10 burpees

Really wasn't anything fancy, but it was fun and when do you ever get to do real rowing in a CrossFit WOD?! I didn't time it, but gave it my all and was really exhausted afterwards. My abs and my forearms were absolutely smashed. I tried to attach a small video, but it took forever to upload it, so i lost my patience and a picture has to be what i can give you by now. If you guys know any good program for creating videos, please let me know.

Back to the pool...

I'm finally getting my shit together and posting a new WOD. As mentioned earlier, the last month has been quite eventful and i haven't had much time to blog.
My training for Afghanistan is coming along fine, but because of it i haven't had much time to do CrossFit. I've done the two Games workouts, but fucked up the first one because of my bad DU technique and only got 5+ rounds. Just did the second yesterday and got respectable 12 rounds straight. The pushups with hand release were really hard for me and by round 5 or 6 i couldn't do 12 unbroken any longer. Anyway, I'm not bitching and neither am I trying to qualify for the Games this year, so it really doesn't matter, but still, I'm a competitive person and I don't like doing bad.

Okay, back to the next "water-WOD". Here goes:

15min AMRAP
100m freestyle
5 inverted burpees
10 hindu-pushups
20 jumpsquats

For every time you can't do an exercise unbroken and have to take a break, do 10 atomic situps as a penalty.

That will be it for now. Have fun and let me know if you are doing the WOD.

Stay safe!
