Tuesday 052510 – Deadlift

May 24th, 2010 by Mike J

 

Deadlift 1-1-1-1-1, then:

100 Dumbell squat clean thrusters (35/25) for time.  Each minute on the minute perform 5 burpees.

Post weight lifted and times to comments.

CrossFit Total will be held next Tuesday in the Box.  Last week’s and this week’s singles on the squat, press, & deadlift will be good practice for the Total, which is a 1 rep max of back squat, press, and deadlift.  In the total you have 3 attempts to find your one rep max.  This format can be used on the singles this week where you treat the lift like the Total, and use sets 4 & 5 do lift 90% of the max you established.

Watch this fascinating video discussing the hypothesis that we can starve cancer with food:

    If you’re short on time, the discussion about food starts around the 12 minute mark, very interesting presentation on this issue. I’ve read about 4 books about Lance Armstrong and in at least 1 of them he discusses at length how important nutrition was in his fight against cancer and subsequent comeback.

    Think this one deserves a name. Seeing everyone push on definitely kept me going when I didn’t really want to, the beauty of Crossfit. Thanks to the 11am crew for showing up :)

    15:43 15# 100….I think I was sweating more than I ever have in my entire life at the end of this one.
