In today’s workout you will perform 25 bar-facing burpees, 20 deadlifts, and 15 pull-ups; then 20 bar-facing burpees, 15 deadlifts, and 10 pull-ups; and finally 15 bar-facing burpees, 10 deadlifts, and 5 pull-ups. To perform a bar-facing burpee, do a regular burpee, then hop over the barbell instead of jumping straight up. Then repeat the movement on the other side of the barbell. Please concentrate on using good form for your deadlifts (even if that means slowing down), and pick a weight that is appropriate for you today.


If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD:


Experienced:

For time:

25 bar-facing burpees

20 deadlifts (185lb, 135lb)

15 pull-ups

20 bar-facing burpees

15 deadlifts

10 pull-ups

15 bar-facing burpees

10 deadlifts

5 pull-ups


If this type of workout is new to you, please feel free to modify the movements. You can substitute ring rows for pull-ups, perform kettlebell deadlifts instead of barbell deadlifts, and pick a burpee modification that works for you today. Make sure to move through each set of deadlifts mindfully to maintain proper form. A beginner’s version of today’s WOD could look like this:


Scaled 1:

For time:

20 elevated, no push-up burpees

16 kettlebell deadlifts (20lb, 15lb)

12 ring rows

16 elevated, no push-up burpees

12 kettlebell deadlifts

8 ring rows

12 elevated, no push-up burpees

8 kettlebell deadlifts

Perhaps something between the experienced version and the beginner version of the WOD is right for you today. Another variation of today’s WOD might look like this:

For time:

25 bar-facing burpees

20 deadlifts (105lb, 85lb)
