Posted 19th May 2018 by Jenna Fisher

This is an advanced class. The main lifts are with barbells. You must know how to perform these movements without instruction and be confident in holding form whilst under fatigue. Other than that, all are welcome, come and enjoy x

(Alternate between A1 and A2)

 

Rest 1-2 mins

 

B1. 6 sets of 2 deadlift 

B2. 5 set of 6 TTR

(Alternate between B1 and B2)

 

Rest 1- 2 mins 

 

C1. 7 sets of 1 deadlift 

D1. 6 sets of 4 TTR

(Complete all of C1 and then all of D1)

 

Nots:

-Max effort in Part A. If it feels like too much rest you need to work harder/faster. Do not hold back

-Part B is steady but taxing on your core and lats. Bear this in mind when selecting your deadlift weight. You must be able to hold form. (If TTR is beyond your current scope, scale to knee raises or v-ups)

-As the reps decrease the weight increases

-There is one more set of DLs than TTR (you start and end on DLs)

-A1 and A2 alternate:

Partner 1 does 3 deadlifts

Partner 2 does 3 deadlifts

Partner 1 does 8 TTR

Partner does 8 TTR

Repeat

 

-B1 and B2 also alternate

 

-All of C1 must be completed before D1:

Partner 1 does 1 deadlift

Partner 2 does 1 deadlift

Partner 1 does 1 deadlift

Partner 2 does 1 deadlift

Etc. Until both people have completed 7 deadlifts

Then

Partner 1 does 4 TTR

Partner 2 does 4 TTR

Etc. Until both people have completed 6 sets of 4 TTR
