3 rounds

  • 10 x Pike Lift over Medicine Ball (r+l=1 rep)
  • 15 x Straight Leg Situps
  • 25 x Mountain Climbers with Hands on Medicine Ball (r+l=1 rep)

Then 3 rounds for time

  • 10 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
  • 3 x Deadlift @ 255lbs/115kg
  • 15 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 3 x Deadlift
  • 25 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 3 x Deadlift
  • 50 x Kettlebell Swings
  • Rest 3 minutes

Results: Metcon 7:12-9:36-10:05. Purposely chose a heavy Deadlift weight due to low reps. Reset between each lift with 5 second pause to try not to break form. Other options which I used instead of Deadlifts in the past, were Dips, Body Weight Bench Press or Handstand Pushups, but then I did 5 rounds.
