Again, our goal this cycle is getting stronger and more efficient in the Overhead Squat to help you stabilize your catch position in the Snatch as well as having more strength in the end range of any OH pressing motion. With the work sets dropping to 3, look to go heavier per set than we did on the 5X5 week.
WOD:
3 Rounds:
3 Min AMRAP, 2 Min Rest B/w Rounds
Reps 2-4-6-8-10-etc…
Deadlifts (225/160)

Score each AMRAP separately
Video courtesy of Train FTW. Some quick tips on efficiency on the bar facing burpees.
Keep your deadlift form dialed in on this one. Don’t let the back start rounding. As stated above, after each rest period, you will start back at 2 deadlifts, 2 bar facing burpees, 4 deadlifts, etc…
Scaling Options:
Bar weight -> 185/130 -> 165/115 -> as needed
Burpee over bar -> burpee to bar step over
