"Silent But Deadly"15 min
AMRAP 15:
3 Deadlifts 225 / 155 lb
6 Push-ups
9 Air Squats
Stimulus
- Overview: This triplet is very similar to our benchmark workout The Chief. If you are familiar with it, you know it packs a punch and you're going to end up doing a lot more work than you think! Rounds are cyclical and very fast, so how you start will most likely dictate how we finish, meaning we want to make sure we are pacing to hit the end of the clock hard.
- Deadlifts: Unbroken sets.
- Push-ups: 1-2 sets.
- Air Squats: Less than :30.
Strategy
- Athletes should be prepared for 15+ rounds, most will end up around 20 rounds, so to start we want to make sure that we don't come out the gate at redline pace.
- We should aim to find a consistent and fast, but sustainable pace and stay there for the first 8-10 minutes with the goal of turning it up a notch and pushing the pace through the end of the clock.
