WOD Brief:
Yesterday we pushed some heavy weights on those back squats, and today we have ALL THE DEADLIFTS! Our strength work today is three sets of 10 deadlifts…an ideal weight range here would be 65-70% of your one rep max. Ten reps at a moderate weight requires a bit of grit and intense focus, we want to make sure our backs stay flat, our cores stay engaged and we remember to breathe throughout all sets.
After we get stronger in the first part of class, we are going to tax multiple energy systems and get even stronger with three short, highly intense amraps. Pairing highly aerobic, oxygen-sucking movements with heavy strength work is a way to increase lung capacity and muscular endurance. Let’s get after it today, team!
