Deadlifts

Trying not to get an attitude about deadlifts. I'm still a little mystified as to why I couldn't hit 240 last week. I should be well on my way to 275 by now. In my mind. Anyway...today we started a new cycle of Wendler and I went with 235 as my training weight, which is my one rep max still.

Warm up sets:
5 @ 95
5 @ 125
5 @ 140

Work sets:
5 @ 155
5 @ 175
5 @ 200


Then we got to do some more deadlifts in the WOD. I didn't mind, really. I was able to do them unbroken at this weight. It's the box jumps that sucked the life out of me and killed my time. Ha ha. Still, I have to say this was an enjoyable workout.

3 Rounds for time of:

400 Meter run
15 Deadlifts (Men bodyweight, Women 3/4 bodyweight)
30 Box Jumps (Men 24” box, Women 20” box)

My time: 18:39, Rx (115 lbs)
