Over the last couple of weeks, Julian Mills of Club Moativation has been practicing his impersonation of the Littlest Hobo. Rather than walking from town to town with just a knotted handkerchief to his name, however, he's been criss-crossing the country with a pair of DYNOs and a pair of rowing machines. The format of the Club Moativation Mencap Competition was somewhat complex. Each round took place over an hour with two teams of eight (six men, two women) competing against each other in that time. The competition was in two parts which took place simultaneously, one using the Indoor Rower and the other using the DYNO. For the first part, the team had to row as far as they could in the hour. Each team member had to row at some point, but the interval strategy was for each team to decide. At the same time as this was going on, each member had also to complete 40 repetitions of each of the three main exercises on the DYNO – the leg press, the bench press and the bench pull, with the aim being to complete the highest average work over the sets. The overall score for each team was found by adding all 24 individual scores for the DYNO to the total number of metres rowed. Obviously this sounds slightly more complex than the General Theory of Relativity but apparently it all worked out well enough in practice. The overall winner was Club Moativation Cheltenham with a score of 22,615, with Cardiff and Cambridgeshire making the top three a clean sweep for the C's with 22,509 and 22,085 respectively.
