Conditioning

4 rounds:

In 2 Minutes:

12-15 calorie row
9 double db deadlifts
max burpee pull ups in remaining time

Rest 1 minute

Notes

Today’s workout if four 2-minute rounds of work with 1 minute of rest in between each round. Each round consists of 12-15 calories on the rower, 9 double dumbbell deadlifts, and then as many burpee pull ups as possible in the remaining time. Your score is the total amount of burpee pull ups completed across the entire workout.

The calories shouldn’t take more than about :45. Decrease the amount if necessary.

The deadlifts should be heavy but unbroken. Do not pick a weight that will take you more than 1 set for the 9 reps.

Choose a pull up bar that is out of our reach when standing beneath it with arms extended overhead. If you cannot perform traditional burpee pull ups, scale to a burpee followed by a jumping pullup from a box.
