3 round of

  • 8 x Dumbbell Deficit Split Squats* @ 16kg per hand, left leg forward
  • 8 x Dumbbell Deficit Split Squats @ 16kg per hand, right leg forward

For the Split Squats, put both front foot and back foot on 20kg plates, bring knee to floor.

Then 4 rounds for time

  • 4 x Deadlift @ 100kg
  • 8 x Goblet Squats @ 24kg
  • 16 x Alternating Goblet Lateral Lunges @ 20kg (8 per side)*

* Have never really done these so be careful and go with a weight that is comfortable. Worried I’d pull my groin or something.

Then 3 rounds of

  • 3 x Single Leg V-Up (L+R=1 rep)
  • 2 x V-Ups
  • 1 x Laying Windsheild Wiper (L+R=1 rep)
  • Repeat the above for 3 sets (that is one round)

Results: Metcon 7:42. Deadlifts were harder than normal… Hamstrings/Lower Back really feeling it today.
