Deceiving
Complete as many rounds as possible in 12 minutes of:
4 Shoulder press (Men 75#, Women 55#)
8 Sumo Deadlift High Pull
12 Front squats
My rounds: 5 + 4 squats
This one was deceiving! Looked fairly simple on paper, but the squats kicked my ass. Yes, 55# front squats. It was a cardio killer. They were pretty well broken up, and I rested just enough to cheat myself out of a full 6th round - I was 8 reps short. However, I will say, I enjoyed a day of nothing but barbell work.
Strength today was Overhead Squats
My loads: 5 ea @ 55-65-75-80-85 – failed on 3rd rep at 85
My left shoulder kind of rolled a bit on that third rep and I didn't like the way it felt so I bailed. Not worth tearing something up. Other than that my squats all felt pretty decent, good depth, tight core.
