Heavy Deadlifts and A Ridiculous Amrap
In 8 minutes, complete as many rounds as possible of:
3 Deadlifts @ 145kg
8 Wall Balls @ 10kg
8 rounds + 3 DLs
I did 32 reps in 12 minutes last week. So 27 in 8 minutes ain’t too shabby. It’s all about positioning and staying tight throughout the multiple lifts.
AMRAP 20:
20 Box Jumps
5 Muscle-ups
30 Double-unders
4 rounds + 4 Muscle-ups (went on to complete the round)
5X3 Strict Pullups + ME Kipping Pullups
15 Strict + 45 Kipping total
When I first told everyone about this, they were like, “Whaat?” Too many box jumps apparently. They actually felt good during the first two sets. Then I broke em up into 10s and 5s. Muscle-ups took the most time but I rested relatively short in between. The double-unders were recovery for me. Then onto more pull-ups to bring this week’s grand total to 96.

Deadlifts Intervals
5 reps of 145kg on the minute.
5 rounds.
In 15 minutes, complete as many rounds as possible of:
5 OHS @ 60kg
10 Push Ups (hand-release)
20 Double Unders
6 rounds + 8 DUs
I wanted to know what it would feel like doing multiple reps of that mammoth weight. As it turned out, I couldn’t last beyond 5 minutes. This requires more work obviously.

For time:
225 pound Deadlift, 21 reps
50 Squats
135 pound Push press, 21 reps
225 pound Deadlift, 15 reps
50 Squats
135 pound Push press, 15 reps
225 pound Deadlift, 9 reps
50 Squats
135 pound Push press, 9 reps
Time – 15:01
The deadlifts proved to be nothing compared to the push presses as I struggled to string a good set even during the first round. Squats just made it more interesting.

Deadlift 3 x 8 @ 70% 1RM(rest 90 seconds between sets)
145kg
Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:
95 pound Overhead squats
Burpees
Time – 6:48
I didn’t feel like doing a heavy strength day. A series of three sets would suffice. During the metcon, the first set of overhead squats felt like a breeze. Then came the burpees…

21-15-9 reps of:

50 Squats
35 Pull-ups

Time – 16:43
The first wod didn’t hurt as much as I thought it would. But it was still tough – see overhead squats. Second wod totally exposed my weaknesses as far as conditioning goes. Overall, it was a good mix of heavy and bodyweight stuff.

I figured these were the only workouts I could do, considering both my arms and legs are fried from an intense week. Felt really good, till I found out what’s on for tomorrow…
WOD012811
Three rounds for time of:
15 Deadlifts @ 100kg
10 Muscle Ups ( 30 Ring Pullups, 30 Ring Dips)
Time – 30:54
I subbed those muscle ups with ring dips and pullups, which I believe proved to be infinitely harder. No compromise on the movement; performing em strict will ultimately help my cause to do a muscle up one day. So I took my time with this. Why haven’t I tried going for one? I believe it’s more of being afraid that I might hurt myself. I want to believe that I can make that jump and nail. That will be very very soon.
