Tuesday = Day of the DEAD(lift)!

Today we'll do our first deadlift workout. We're not trying to lift heavy today, focus on form. Keep your lumbar curve & tighten your core as you begin the lift. As you rise, keep the bar right against your legs. Lower along the same path as your lifted.

STRENGTH WORK & SKILL WORK:
Deadlift 5 x 5
*add weight as you feel comfortable--remember, FORM is your main concern

METCON
Today you'll do a metcon with a partner or 2 partners. First you, then your partner. Your job when watching is to encourage your partner & help them count their reps. We'll do the triplet of:

21-15-9 reps of...
Thrusters 95# 65# 45# 30# (with 15# dumbbells)
Push Ups
Sumo Deadlift High Pull 95# 65# 45# 30# (with 15# dumbbells)

Time permitting we will practice cleans and pull ups when done.
