Deadlifts, Sprinting, and Burpees

General — Tags: , , , — Tim Nowaczyk on August 26th, 2009

4 Rounds of:

4 Deadlifts at 85% of 1 Rep Max (If you don’t know your max, we’ll find a weight that works)
Sprint to Truck (300M)
7 Burpees

When I looked at today’s workout, I knew that I’d be able to push through it pretty quickly.  On the 10th, we did a 5x3rep deadlifting skills workout.  I did two reps at 221#, but stepped it down because Kyle didn’t like my form.  I don’t know my 1RM.  So, I could have probably done 187# on this workout, but Ben didn’t like my form when lowering the bar at 133# so I went with 155#. :)   I tried to pace myself on the sprints.  In the past, I’ve gone out too quickly from the gate, and then my last rounds are really slow.  I felt like the burpees were really efficient.  I was able to do a hop and drop myself on the floor without incurring the energy wasting penalty of lowering myself to the floor.  I was really happy with my performance today.

Time: 7:05 @ 155#
