7 Rounds for Time:
-7 Deadlifts (185 lbs)
-1 Full Gasser
-15 Pull Ups
Alright, there was some confusion to what a gasser was. Coach Billie and I were deciphering the hand drawn digram on the whiteboard to determine the exact distance of a full gasser. Given what was drawn, a rectangular box with lines drawn width wise, we thought that box represented the floor plan of the gym and a gasser was running the width of the gym 4 times. Why on earth would you run the width of gym four times when you can run the length of the gym twice? It didn’t make sense.
We ultimately made a gasser as two full trips down-back the length of the gym for this WOD. But it turns out a gasser is a running the full width of a football field 4 times or 212 yards(4 x 53, a width of a football field is 53 yards), hence the reason for the drawn rectangular box with four lines drawn 4 times width wise. This box represented a football field not the gym!
After this, I think coach Billie and I will never forget what is gasser is.
One last note, my lower back was little hurtin’ the next day. I think my form on the dead lifts were a little off. I’m going to write this blurb as a a reminder to take a video of myself doing dead lifts the next time a WOD calls for it.
