Comments Off on Weighted Pullups and Dips followed by Deadlifts and Bupees

EMOM for 10 minutes perform the following:

  • Even Minute – 5 x Weighted Pullups @ 15kg
  • Odd Minute – 5 x Weighted Dips @ 25kg

Then do 200 Double Unders immediately followed by AMRAP in 9 minutes of:

  • 5 x Bodyweight Deadlifts (70kg in my case)
  • 7 x Bar Facing Burpees

Results:  For the EMOM I was only able to do 5 unbroken pullups for the first two rounds.  Could only do 4 reps in rounds 4 and 5 before the minute ran out.  Need to work on that…  Dips were OK but ROM felt limited after the workout on Sunday (shoulders were very tight).

For the AMRAP – 8 rounds plus 1 Deadlift… interesting issue with the AMRAP and breathing during the deadlift since after the DUs and then Burpees every round it is hard to hold your breath for each of the 5 lifts.
