And now for Something a Little Different…

Mixing it up a bit today. Today is a medley of pain in three parts. It goes:


3 rounds of:

  • AMRAP of 25m shuttle sprints in 60 seconds
  • 60 seconds rest

    followed by

18, 12, 6 rep rounds of:

  • Deadlifts 225 lbs
  • Knees-to-bar

    followed by

3 rounds of:

  • AMRAP of 25m shuttle sprints in 60 seconds
  • 60 seconds rest


Description: Each 25m sprint will be considered one "rep." Down and back is two reps. Perform as many reps as possible in 60 seconds. Partial reps don't count. Rest 60 seconds. When the first three rounds are complete, move inside and perform the deadlift/KTB workout. Immediately after finishing, repeat the sprint workout.



RESULTS:

Name - 1st set of sprints - weight used - 2nd set of sprints.

Seth - 11,10,10 - 225lb - 9,9,10
Justin - 10,9,8 - 225lb - 7,7,7
James - 10,9,8 - 155lb - 8,8,9
William - 9,10,9 - 2x40lb DB - 5,6,6 (subbed DB deadlift and sit-ups)

I went with 155# DLs and probably should've gone a bit higher. It wasn't easy by any means, but the 225# guys looked like they were struggling a lot more than I was.

I wasn't strugging, I was simply pacing myself.

Grip failure was definitely a concern during the later knees-to-bar.

Sorry for the delay in results posting, guys. Been one of those weeks.

Oh and for the record, Seth is totally bullshitting about "pacing" :-p
