  • 10.20.11 WOD Workout

    Deadlift 5.5.3.3.1.1

    5 min rest:

    DU 50.40.30.20.10

    HSPU 10.8.6.4.2

    275/315/365

    I tore the timed portion of this WOD a new a-hole. The only thing that slowed me down were rounds 2 and 3 of HSPU's. I split both of them into two sets with a very short rest. I did 40/10 on the first round of DU's, and 20/20 on rd. 2. Everything else was unbroken.

    My deadlifts felt really weak though. I have to work on my technique and work on keeping my back from rounding.
