It's three rounds of bodyweight 135# deadlifts followed by Turkish get-ups. Here's how the reps/load will work:
Round 1:
- Max reps
BW135# DL in 3 minutes
- 10 TGU per arm @ (100-Reps DL)lbs
Round 2:
- Max Reps
BW135# DL in 4 minutes
- 10 TGU per arm @ (100-Reps DL)lbs
Round 3:
- Max Reps
BW135# DL in 5 minutes
- 10 TGU per arm @ (100-Reps DL)lbs
Round all loads up to the nearest 5lbs
Explanation: Load up a bar with your bodyweight 135# and perform as many deadlifts as possible in the time given. Subtract the number of reps performed from 100. This number (rounded up to the nearest 5) is the weight of the DB to use for the Turkish Get-ups for that round.

man that was a lot tougher than i thought it would be. i had to scale the TGUs to 5 reps per arm and with less weight or i'd have been doing this all day (apparently i suck at them);
1. DLs - 50, 5 TGU per arm @ 50#
2. DLs - 40, 5 TGU per arm @ 40#
3. DLs - 40, 5 TGU per arm @ 40#
i could've pushed harder during the deadlifts to earn my 40# TGUs, but i couldn't get over the mental hurdle today.
oh, and total time was 35:47.
Dropping the weight from BW (195 last time) to 135# definitely helped, but was still plenty tough.
Those TGU are tough and exhausting.
I was glad we didn't have to do any pull-ups today.
