- 8 BMU
Today we are doing a mix of Monday + Tuesday programming. Class will start with building to a heavy double Deficit Deadlift. You will not be able to lift as much from a deficit— be sure to start lighter than if from the ground. Deficit Deadlifts can increase our pulling strength for Deadlifts and Clean/Snatch Pulls.
‘BRAMBLEBERRY CRISP’ is a fun Gymnastics/Lifting Metcon. The goal is to keep moving and maintain form along the way. Pick a part of the workout that is in your wheelhouse and try to go unbroken! And then pick a part that you could slow down and focus on your breathe and perfect reps.
