5 deadlifts
10 burpees

♀ 185 lb. ♂ 275 lb.

Post time to comments.
Compare to 180710.


Scaling
This couplet should be relatively heavy but still fast-paced. Just about all athletes can perform deadlifts and some version of a burpee. Reduce the loading so you can complete each set of deadlifts unbroken. If needed, reduce the number of burpees to a point that allows you to keep moving quickly and avoid excessive rest.

Intermediate Option
5 rounds for time of:
5 deadlifts
10 burpees

Men: 225 lb.
Women: 155 lb.

Beginner Option
5 rounds for time of:
5 deadlifts
5 burpees

Men: 135 lb.
Women: 95 lb.

As rx’d, 3:32 (PR).


24 seconds faster than in 2012.  Unbroken deads, took later rounds a bit more deliberately.  Made up a lot of time on the burpees.  Since the deads take so much out of the legs and back, I tried to focus on a ‘stricter’ burpee, using a lot more chest and arm to pop myself back up.  Seemed to help.  Rounds 2-4 were a bit slower, but was able to really sprint through on round 5.

Yep. Maybe I'm wrong, but if I recall correctly, the movement standards for burpees detailed in the judges course are different than what was demonstrated here (half-ass burpees). I would have "no rep'd" every one of them. Let's just enforce standards. Still impressive though.

There are a lot of movements done differently in competition than in every day workouts. Honestly, it’s why I stopped competing. While competition burpee form is sound, there are too many other movements where going sloppy is rewarded despite the heightened risk of injury.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about.


WORKOUT THEMES

A test originally put in place, if I remember correctly, because there were so many people to get through in a short amount of time. Squatting with a heavy weight, extra emphasis on the midline, and changing orientation with an emphasis on jumping/landing.


MAIN DECISON

Is the extra 30 seconds you could cut on this workout worth the discomfort it would cost?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

10 deadlifts, 10 burpees, 15 minutes


CONSISTENCY SCALE

For time:

25 deadlifts

50 burpees


INTENSITY SCALE

5 rounds of:

10 burpees

30-sec. hold deadlift in bottom position

Rest 1 minute between rounds


INJURY SCALE

Upper-body - 5 rounds of: sprint 200 meters, 5 deadlifts

Lower-body - AMRAP in 15 minutes of: 10 GHD sit-ups, 10 hip extensions


MY STUFF

4:27 as rx'd


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 8
