Row - 5min @ easy warm-up pace ...sprint 5 stroks hard on the top of each minute 

Fastest time seen was 1:08...PR

1min Row @ 2:00 MAX HR - 147bpm, success
30sec Rest 
1min Row @ 1:55 MAX HR - 152bpm, success
30sec Rest 
1min Row @ 1:50 MAX HR - 168bpm, success
30sec Rest 
1min Row @ 1:45 MAX HR - 173bpm, success
30sec Rest 
1min Row @ 1:40 MAX HR - 182bpm, success
30sec Rest 
1min Row @ 1:35 MAX HR - 193bpm, success, RT
30sec Rest 
1min Row @ 1:30 DNA
...continue dropping 5sec until you can no-longer hold the required pace for full 60sec

 Not sure if I am 100% accurate on this, however, I believe that this is a PR. I believe I failed the 1:35 last time and I was successful this time, however, it was definitely the respiratory threshold and my HR spiked significantly (clearly). This is the first time I have had it over 190bpm in quite some time. I didn't attempt the 1:30 pace because I knew I would have only lasted 10-20 seconds before dropping off significantly to the point surpassing the current demand. The breathing was HUGE with this tester. Having improved breathing technique through the movement was the biggest factor for improvement.
