“You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do”. – C.G. Jung

With the advent of the social media and reddit forums, talk is cheap. Sitting in the comfort of a chair, at home, many will talk. Few however, will actually do.

Spending our breath on words is wasted effort, and is always better spent on action. The only measurable difference between the armchair quarterback, and the actual quarterback.

“I can’t hear what you’re saying, because your actions speak so loudly.”

Strategy

– Moderate effort on the rower. It does not pay to be a winner here.

– Get a chunk of swings out of the way to start, then chip away at some smaller sets to prepare for the pull-ups.

– Quick sets of 3 or more on the pull-ups.

– Focus on quick transitions and try to keep the time of your breaks minimal.
