Daily WOD – Apr 18, 2012

Matt loves deadlifts, even at 6:15am

Rack pulls 8×1 @ 90% of your 1 RM deadlift. Control the descent.

Then

5 rounds for time of

  • 10 pushups
  • 20 double unders

WOD Notes: Compare metcon to 111025.  Find your last deadlift max on 120201. A rack pull is a deadlift with a shorter range of motion.  The bar starts off resting on plates or boxes or something that elevates the starting position.  It should be easier than a conventional deadlift.

    Well, I probably wormed it on the pushups and I’m sure the deadlifts had stripper written all over it and I took them from a 45# plate on each side( hope I did that right) …I think I need a gym with people….?

    1. Nikki

      Barb we also raised our bars on 45# plates. Good guess! Where are your garage peeps?!

    2. Sarg

    We need someone Manning the grill so we have steaks for after the wods. Not a fan of these protein shakes!!

    1. Sarg

      that sounds awesome but it’d be hard to WOD with the smell of steak wafting in.

    Couldn’t deadlift at home, but did the 5 rounds – 6:38 RX. My pushups were ugly…sad. Is anyone attending the Ninja Wod on Saturday?

    Haha, Tanner, I like the idea!

    Hope to be back tomorrow…would like to try this one…light.

    Welcome back Mike K!
