5 rounds for time of:

250-m row, sub 0:52♀/0:45♂
50 double-unders, unbroken

If the row takes longer than 0:52/0:45, or if you trip up on your double-unders, redo that exercise before moving back to the other exercise.

Post time to comments.
Compare to 180504.

Scaling:
If you’re unfamiliar with row pacing or a sub 0:52/0:45 time is unrealistic, row 250 meters at max effort in the warm-up, then add a few seconds to that to create your target time for the workout. This workout forces you to row at a near-maximum effort so you can make sure the row counts and you don’t have to repeat the work. Athletes who struggle with double-unders might want to switch to unbroken single-unders or reduce the number of double-unders each round.

Intermediate Option:
5 rounds for time of:
250-m row, sub 0:57♀/0:50♂
100 unbroken single-unders

If the row takes longer than 0:57/0:50, or if you trip up on your single-unders, redo that segment before moving back to the other exercise.

Beginner Option:
3 rounds for time of:
250-m row, sub 1:02 ♀/0:55♂
100 single-unders

If the row takes longer than 1:02/0:55, redo it before moving back to the other exercise.
