Sumo Deadlift12 min

Heavy Set of 10

REPEAT FROM 10/30/24

Stimulus
  • This is the second week of our 10 rep sets, last week we tested the waters with a trial run at our 10 rep. Now we are aiming to go heavier than our successful 10 rep weight from last week.
  • If your form is breaking down do not continue to build in weight and finish out your sets at the last weight you could maintin good form with.

-Score: Heaviest set for load.

Strategy
  • Know that the first 4-6 reps will probably feel pretty good, once we pass the 7 rep mark is about where the reps may start to get a little slower. Aim for intentional and smart reps when we get to this point.

"Scotty" [HERO]11 min

AMRAP 11:
5 Deadlifts 315 / 225 lb
18 Wallballs 20 / 14 lb to 10/9 ft
17 Burpees Over Bar

REPEAT FROM 12/2/23

Stimulus
  • Overview: In this hero workout, athletes will be challenged to grind through rounds of heavy deadlifts under fatigue.
  • Deadlifts: These should be on the heavier side today but the loading should not exceed 70% of your 1RM deadlift. Reps should take 30s or less to complete each round.
  • Wallballs: Reps should take 1:00 or less to complete each round.
  • Burpees Over Bar: Athletes can choose to perform bar-facing or bar-lateral burpees today (both considered Rx). Reps should take 1:30 or less to complete regardless of which style burpee they choose.
  • Score: Rounds + Reps
Strategy
  • 5 singles on the deadlifts is a totally acceptable break up strategy here. This barbell is heavy so making sure we are moving as well as we can throughout is going to be important.
  • Let's aim to complete the wallballs in 1-2 sets each round. If we choose to break, let's do our best to keep this break short.
  • The workout calls for "burpees over bar" without specification of whether athletes should perform bar-facing burpees or bar-lateral burpees so today we get to choose. Let's choose the variation that is going to keep us moving consistently.
