Bench and Reverse Rows then Deadlift, Burpees, V-Ups

By | | , , , ,

Do 7 rounds of:

  • 5-5-5-5-5-3-3 x Bodyweight Benchpress
  • Rest 15 seconds
  • 5 x Reverse Rows
  • Rest 30 seconds

Then AMRAP 14 minutes of the following (taken from Mercy Rule at Atomic CF):

  • 2 x Bodyweight Deadlifts
    4 x Burpees
    6 x V-Ups (or Situps)
  • 3 x Deadlifts
    6 x Burpees
    9 x V-Ups
  • 4 x Deadlifts
    8 x Burpees
    12 x V-Ups

etc… (+1, +2, +3)

Results:  For the AMRAP part finished 5 rounds plus 7 Deadlifts, 14 Burpees and 18 V-Ups(of 21).  V-Ups were definitely the limiting factor in this workout.  If you want a more Metcon type of workout just do basic situps.  This would maintain a quicker pace and get your heartrate up higher.  In this case my HR was max=  167/ ave = 146 … the graph shows how my heart rate dropped during the V-Ups and then picked up again during the burpees.

    Redid this workout but used 165lbs deadlifts (10lbs over bodyweight) and GHD situps instead of V-Ups. Finished 6 rounds plus 8 deadlifts, 16 burpees and 5 GHD situps.
