Intent

(0-5)

Today we hinge from the floor in our strength work. While it is the deadlift, it should be called the “life lift”. It is essential to do and to build in order to thrive through our years. The goal is to prioritize great mechanics in the warm up and practice those same mechanics through the 5 sets of strength work. The goal is to start relatively heavy and stay heavy today. In order to improve strength, especially for those of you who have been at this for a while, you must have “many” working sets to create physiological adaptation, not just build to a heavy set of something on all training days. Then we get to a notorious combo of deadlifts and wall walks. Why? Well, they interfere with each other just enough to be uncomfortable but are opposing one another just enough to keep you moving when it’s time to hit the next round. The loads for your deadlift should allow for you to get to 21 in 2 sets if you were asked to. You can break them up as you wish, but that is the standard to consider. Wall Walk volume should be considered based on how well you do them. Can you do 6 wall walks in a minute? If so, RX’d can be in the cards today, but you must trust your muscle endurance. Round 9 wall walks will feel very different than the previous 9 you accumulated.
