As part of the warm up, do

  • 200 x Double Unders

AMRAP in 20 minutes of

  • 10 x Sandbag Ground to Overhead @ 30lbs/15kg
  • 10 x Sandbag Reverse Lunges @ 30lbs (each leg is one rep, switch bag from one shoulder to the other between every lunge)
  • 10 x Sandbag Deadlift @ 55lbs/25kg

Then not for time do

Results:  A bit disappointing, couldn’t get a good rhythm since my lower back was fatigued after about round 4.  Ended up with 9 rounds plus 10 reps.  Since someone once told me that back pain with deadlifts is due to not keeping your core tight, added the Tuck Ups at the end.  Surprisingly, it relieved the back pain better than stretching.  Maye try warming up next time with the Tuck Ups.
