Did this one as a lactic acid recovery conditioning. Did not really sweat or get HR up to high, but biking legs were heavy and full of acid from slow lift earlier. Thought the time was supposed to be around (1:00), but was really around (2:00). Oh well, missed that stimulus, but actually got on a bike. 

Just checked the box on getting on a bike.

Rx on an echo bike - 1:38, 2:14, 2:04, 2:15, 1:52

Agreed with others, output has a cliff edge. Also, felt like I was doing the ski mogul to avoid the arm paddles and hard to fully engage legs and arms buts stabilizing muscles were very engaged. It felt very inefficient. Which may also explain the cliff edge. Would like to understand the science behind it. Also for science, I redid the workout 5mins later and subbed standing for sitting. Times for context - 1:23, 1:22, 1:21, 1:19, 1:17

DNF!! Sprained fingers still hurt too much. Made 6 attempts at 500m, only completed #4; others were all halted around 300m~400m. Pacing was consistently near 1:54/500m.

Did 3 rounds instead since my legs are really tired already.

I guess I’m dumb but I don’t understand the 800/1000m rds, is it an 800 m bike then 1000 m bike and that is considered one round or is it one or the other for five rounds?

I did the pose method practice in the video Chris S. shared, but as I got tired through each effort that heel lift, shift, fall rhythm started to fall apart.  I wanted to sit so bad in the second half each time.  Not surprised about any of this: Rx rest periods should instill fear because the intent is ALWAYS max effort for each work period whether or not it is stated.  I chose the C2 after practicing on a Hammer Strength echo/assault style bike because how close the handles got to my body while out of the saddle was just too awkward.

Legs burnt, wanted to shift forward, but then bikes handles got in the way. He was much worse than expected.

That was just as nasty as I expected, and a little bit nastier. 
Sold my soul on the first round, paced the last four. Selling my soul only bought me 8 seconds; 8 seconds that would take an extra 60 to recover from. 
I feel that the stimulus I achieved was 99% of what they asked for. 
Glad to see this one in the rearview.

Globo wod: If an echo, assault or Aerodyne bike isn't available sub the bike on any recumbent bike that reads meters (c2 bike included).  If it only reads calories its 20/25 calories. If no bike is available sub either 400/500m row or 350/500m runs on a treadmill.  Use a high incline if on a conventional treadmill.   

Champions Club Scaling Notes

RANT
Pose Method on the bike is just as much of a gamechanger as Pose Method is for running. Here's an old video (w/f safe) from Dr. Romanov (or, rather Severin) that shows a good drill to practice before riding. And really, this workout is a good chance to talk about "throwaway movements." Burpees, bike, box jump,... what else... maybe bear crawls? All those movements can be thrown into workouts as mindless conditioning but man, doing anything mindless in CrossFit better be few and far between, saved for the most extreme I Just Need To Get My Mind Off This Something days or before the Michigan-Ohio State game. The neurological adaptations that happen from squatting and handstands are probably just as important as the physical adaptations. I get to coach one of our moms with MS twice a week and it's just nuts how much we take our bodyweight perception for granted. Can you imagine what it would be like to not know if your foot is touching the ground? So when we get a chance practice shifting bodyweight in any manner, I think it's a good time to take advantage of it. Especially when there's literally nothing else to distract us during the workout. No barbell, no rings, no pull-up bar or dumbbells. Just you, the bike, and the bodyweight you feel from the pedals supporting your feet. Lift the back foot and allow yourself to fall slightly to the side, then do the same when you hit the pose again.

SCALING QUESTIONS
Do I really need a mindless conditioning thing or would I actually feel better getting my conditioning in as a byproduct of technique practice?
Is this speed/intensity what I need to practice right now or do I need to modify the distance to go faster or slower?
Am I willing to work intensely enough to deserve a 2-minute rest between rounds?
