Comments Off on Deadlifts then KBS, DUs, Reverse Lunges and Step Ups

Followed the Crossfit Invictus WOD from July 22, 2019.   Did the Deadlifts as prescribed.  Modified the metcon as follows:

For time

  • 75 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
  • 50 x Reverse Lunges @ 20kg per hand (25 lunges per leg)
  • 25 x Step Ups to a 20inch Box @ 20kg per hand

Results:  For the Deadlift 150-185-215-240-220-195lbs.  Metcon 13:40.  Really hard on the forearms.  Got the 100 Double Unders unbroken :-).
