The goal today is to hit a heavy set of 5, followed by a heavier set of 4, followed by a heavier set of 3, etc… until we get to a Heavy Single for the day. If that heavy single just happens to be a new 1RM, awesome! If it isn’t, as long as you went heavy and came out of it safe.
WOD:
3 Rounds:
10 Ring Dips
15 Deadlifts (185/130)
20 Pull Ups

With the ring dips, this will force you to focus on keeping the core tight in the dips so you don’t go all over the place during them. Grit through those and then keep the back tight in your pull ups and deadlifts.
