Clean grip barbell deadlift 15 reps
Push-ups 15 reps

Suggested loading is 70% of bodyweight.

Dynamic warmup
Burgener warmup - bar x 1

Painstorm XIX
anaerobic •••• or an aerobic ••••!


With a 70# bar how many rounds can you complete in 40 minutes of:
5 Deadlifts
5 Hang Power Cleans
5 Front Squats
5 Push Presses
5 Back Squats

Completed 16 rounds.

Notes:
-Took most reps nice and slow to make sure proper form was being followed.
-Push presses killed me! My shoulders were burning after the first 10 minutes and it was hard to keep the bar in the rack position with the burning.
-I probably should have followed the scaling on the Brand X website and done 3 reps instead of 5 or lowered the weight.

Notes:
-Workout is H-I - Workout A from the New Rules of Lifting book.
-Incline bench press felt good, possibly try 105 next time.
-Shoulder press - 55 wasn't too heavy but when I jumped up to 60 it was very hard to keep good posture and had to work very hard to fight going into a kyphotic posture.
-Weighted pullups felt great but the 5th set it was a struggle. I'm glad I didn't jump up
- Didn't get to finish my workout, had to hit the showers so I'd make my dentist appointment on time. Next time I refuse to wait for my co-worker, we were suppose to leave at 11:15...but then a couple of "5 minutes" we didn't actually leave work till 11:45.

-Plank burpees felt a bit weird at first because I kept starting to bend my arms to do a pushup.
-Ring pullups felt good today.
