Athlete Notes:
You’ve already worked up to a heavy deadlift today so now it’s time to do some moderate weight deadlifts while under fatigue. This is a pull-heavy workout that is broken up with double-unders. Use the double-unders as an opportunity to ‘reset’ your mind for the next movement and to give your lats a little rest. Try to keep your hands and arms relaxed during the double-unders; these don’t need to be the fastest double-unders of your life instead, they should be calm and a way for you to mentally reset. Be smart with the pull-up sets. Stay on the bar if you are in rhythm but I don’t want you setting a new unbroken pull-up max on a workout like this. You will need to have some gas left in the tank come round three. If you feel like you are going to tear then please come off the bar and stop the workout; I don’t want anyone getting tears before the qualifier weekend.
