12/9/11 - OPT Fitness Testing Camp

Day 1
Arrived in Pheonix late Thursday night. Slept solid but only around 5-6 hours. 

Had breakfast with James and a few other athletes that were in town for testing. Met Chris Ewanowski from Florida who owns WODkiller gear and Mizar Fuentes from Montreal. Both awesome people. I was calling Mizar "Pocket Hercules" all weekend. This guy is powerful. At a bw of 137# he front squatted 310# and rowed like a 3:20 1k! 

We did some basic tests around 10. Grip dynamometer, lung expiratory volume, bodyfat, movement screening, and a few other things. 

Then on to the fun stuff. Lactate repeat fatigue tests. They tested our blood lactate levels pre loaded and post interval.

3 sets @ 100%
Row 250m
15 KB Swings @ 2pd
25 Burpees
15 KB Swings @ 2pd
Row 250m
Rest 10 min.
