Announcements - we will meet in the 3rd Floor weight room, so please arrive as early as possible so we can claim enough space!! This is a strength-focused WOD, so team up with a few folks of similar ability and get after it!
Equipment required - grab a lifting platform and a barbell with the appropriate weights.
Warm-up and instruction - immediately upon arrival start your individual warm-up. Matt and I will go from group to group to discuss the points of performance with the deadlift and provide coaching as folks warm-up at a lighter load.
WOD:
Deadlift
3-3-3-2-2-2-1-1-1
NOTE: There is no time component to this WOD, so be sure to focus on proper form!

Started at 135 and worked my way up to 255. PR, 30 lbs better than the last time I did it, and 50 lbs better than my deadlift at the beginning of last semester... granted, those had a lot more reps and might have contributed, but it's still progress.
ReplyDeleteIt was CROWDED this morning..oh my. Glad we claimed some space - nice work by everyone, I'm sure there were a few PRs today in addition to Nate!
