AMRAP 15:
60 Double-Unders
30 Wallballs (20/14)
15 Deadlifts (275/185)
STIMULUS
– The weight on the barbell should be something you feel confident you could complete 15+ grindy unbroken deadlifts unbroken when fresh.
STRATEGY
1. Keep the shoulders and the grip relaxed on the double unders.
2. Aim for 3-4 sets on the wallballs.
3. Aim for 3-4 sets on the deadlifts,
15 minutes us a long time for this triplet. Let’s be smart with our break up strategy and pacing. The double unders are the one place where we are not moving any weights so no need to rush through these reps. The wallballs will feel easy in comparison to the deadlifts but if we bite off a big set, we may be looking at small sets (if not singles) on the deadlifts. Let’s break the wallballs in order to maintain those bigger sets on the barbell.
