Deadlifts.

  • 5 x @ 80kg
  • 5 x @ 90kg
  • 5 x @ 100kg
  • 3 x @ 120kg
  • 1 x @ 130kg
  • 1 x @ 130kg
  • 5 x @ 102.5kg (225 lbs)
  • 5 x @ 102.5kg

Then for time, do this modified version of the Team Series 2014 Event 4 Workout:

  • 30 x Calorie Row
  • 30 x Wall Balls (Rx is Burpees)
  • 30 x Hanging Cleans @4.25kg (Rx is 61kg / Scaled is 48kg)

Results:  130kg is a new 1RM for Deadlifts (only 6kg away from 2x body weight!!).  Metcon in 6:04.  The top teams were completing this in around 14-22 minutes which means around 4-5 minutes per person, so not too bad.

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.
