CF Invictus Performance WOD - 061013 Workout

Workout of the Day
A.
Six sets of:
Deadlift
(All reps must be performed with PERFECT mechanics!)
Set 1 – 3 reps
Set 2 – 2 reps
Set 3 – 1 rep
Set 4 – 3 reps
Set 5 – 2 reps
Set 6 – 1 rep
Rest 3-4 minutes between sets
I definitely didn't rest enough between sets, and my back was arched performing Dead Lifts again. Although my technique wasn't fantastic, I was still able to match my PR of 355#, but I was unable to get 365# more than a foot off of the ground (and barely an inch on the second attempt).

B.
Using 85% of todays heaviest single, complete the following on the minute, every minute, for 10 minutes:
Deadlift x 3 reps
Burpees x 6 reps
I tried doing a set at 285, but it was a struggle. I then dropped it to 275, but couldn't get a solid set of 3. With this in mind, I dropped it down to 265, and I was able to get solid reps per set. Despite this, I couldn't get going fast enough to maintain steady "every minute on the minute".

Cardio still lagging behind.
