Rowing today

This WOD called for a timed 2k row but the little old gym I go to doesn't have a rowing machine so I had to go with a simulated workout. This took me 26 minutes using 45lbs. You'll notice in the video the guy does 3 squats without pulling the bar up- those I assume are warm-ups. Here's the workout:

200 Sumo Dead Lift High Pull (45lbs)

You have to try and do it continuously to get the same benefit as rowing. I had to stop and rest but tried limiting my rest time from 10-30 secs. You'll leave the gym with a drenched shirt- TRUST ME!
