CrossFit Workout - Wednesday 10/27/10

Deadlift one hundred times your bodyweight, for time

You choose the weight on the bar, perform 1 minute of deadlifts and rest for 1 minute, continue until the total weight you lift equals or exceeds your own bodyweight. You must maintain perfect form on all reps, opening your grip at the bottom of each rep, and NO dropping the bar from the top.

You do not have to lift a bar equal to what you weigh 100 times, but you can if you want to. Or you can lift a bar equal to one-half of what you weigh 200 times.  You decide on the weight of the bar. Get it?

Example.  If you weigh 200 pounds, you need to lift a total of 20,000 pounds of deadlifts today. You decide how much weight you want on the bar and divide that number into 20,000 to determine the number of reps you need to reach 20,000.

Here are a few options:
200lb bar, 100 reps
250lb bar, 80 reps
160lb bar, 125 reps

There is a 30 minute cap on this workout.  Maintain perfect form on all reps, keeping a neutral spine. We will slow you down if your form starts to suffer. We will reduce the weight on your bar if you have even the slightest rounding of your upper back.  Lift for one minute and then rest for at least one minute and continue until you reach your target weight.  You may rest longer than two minutes, but you can not lift for more than one minute without taking at least one minute of rest.

Post load and rep count to the Whiteboard or to Comments.  Ladies, you are not required to post your numbers, just let us know that you finished this wod as prescribed.

Staci's 'scale' is to deadlift one hundred times your "should be" bodyweight", for time.
