We begin re-test week with Sumo Deadlifts.  The goal is in these 5 sets of 5, go heavier per seat than you did on 5Nov.  If you hit every instance of Sumo Deadlifts this cycle, then you should see an improvement in strength in this movement.

So, in each 4 Min set, the double unders and burpee over bar are your buy-in.  What counts is the number of Sumo Deadlift High Pulls you get through.  That said, attack the buy-in movements with a purpose, but have some left in the tank to get good, quality SDHP reps for the remaining time.

Scaling Options:

Dubs -> 35 Double Unders -> 100 Single Unders

Burpee over Bar -> Burpee to bar step over

Bar weight -> 75/55 -> as needed

Cool Down:

Iron Cross Stretch – 1 min per side
