Deadlifts and burpees

Wed, 24 Jun 2009

From CrossFit Brisbane:

For time, perform an inverted ladder with the following two movements.

  • 10-1 reps of Burpees
  • 1-10 reps of Deadlift, 100kg (70kg)

ie, 1st round is 10 burpees + 1 deadlift, 2nd round is 9 burpees + 2 deadlifts etc, last round is 1 burpee + 10 deadlifts

*If your Deadlift 1RM is greater than 155kg scale up the load to 125kg

    Didn’t race through this, in fact the clock was pretty much pointless. Focused on getting the form right. High rep deadlifts are something I don’t want to mess around with at all. Did all lifts without mixed grip. Form felt good, but got tired towards the end…yesterday took it out of me! Cheers!

    Great workout!It’s been neat to read how far you’ve come. I’ve only been doing CF for 8 months or so and I’m amazed at the progress I’ve seen. I’ve enjoyed reading your path from the beginning… It’s been an inspiration. My search engine marketing is to do and pull-up no assistance and I just read your post when you did your first one!Looking some cool stuff on dedicated server.
