in 1:00
1 Deadlift
AMRAP Double Unders
Rest 2:00
Notes
Use a challenging but submax deadlift for the singles. This weight can stay static or build up through the intervals. The goal is not to attempt a new max or push the top end limit of the lift, rather focus on pulling a heavy weight well multiple times.
Score is Deadlift weight and TOTAL number of Double Unders completed.
CASHOUT

An old school clip from Glassman talking about the Deadlift overlayed with some updated content. You might recognize the pair at the top of this video! Regardless, the deadlift is elemental to human movement and independent living.
