Deadlift, Burpee Tabata Mashup

Strength:

I skipped my strength workout today because I felt pretty fatigued.

Conditioning:

Today at the gym I did a deadlift, burpee tabata mashup. That means that I did 20 seconds of deadlifts @ 185 pounds, rested for 10 seconds, did 20 seconds of burpees, rested for 10 seconds, and repeated for a total of eight minutes. I completed 160 repetitions.

I felt dang good doing the deadlifts and the burpees. I did 19 deadlifts in the first round and had slowed to 12 deadlifts by the last round. I started with 12 burpees in the first round and slowed to 7 by the last round.

I maybe should have used 225 on the deadlifts just for the heck of it. That’s probably the lowest weight I should ever use in a workout that has deadlifts. Anything less seems really really light.
