**There’s a lot going on today, and it’s a long workout! Highlighting the deadlifts, you have 20 per round, and I highly suggest doing these in sets of 5. If you go out of the gate hot, doing them unbroken, you might find yourself resting a lot near the end. Now looking at the plate ground to overhead, pay attention to your form. Later in the day you might ask yourself ‘why does my back hurt?’, and it’s probably from this unassuming movement. Don’t lean or bend over at the waist, do more of a ‘squatty deadlift’. So your chest is a little more upright than it would be for a conventional deadlift, where it’s angled more towards the ground. USE YOUR LEGS and stand up, then swing/press the plate overhead. For the other movements, just keep moving. This is one you just grind through. It’s long, so pacing is hard to predict. Manage your reps, manage your rest, and you’ll get through it.
