Rower!!!

Monzi Pulling on the C2

Recently we were lucky enough to pick up a Concept 2 Rower for an unbelievable price. Whats the first thing you do when you get a rower? Pull a 500!!! I managed a huge PR with a 1:28.8. That was just under a 7 second improvement. Whatever we're doing...is working. The C2 is a great new weapon in the gym and will be a key tool to gear up for July 18th.

You lucked out on the rower. It is so nice! Looks like it has never been used before.

Yes, I know you like your chocolate milk. Definately willing to try it post WOD. You make a very good point about simple sugar being absorbed into the liver/muscle faster with apple sauce. The person who I was directing my comment to likes to eat 6 peanut butter sandwiches (on white bread) and 4 packs of Mr. Noodle each day (in addition to lots of protein). His meal plans have good parts and some very flawed parts. Will you send me that journal article?
