Workout
“Linda”
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps of the triplet:
Deadlift: 1 1/2 body weight
Bench press: body weight
Clean: 3/4 body weight
Set up three bars and storm through for time
Linda is a daunting workout. My first attempt took over an hour. SCALE this baby especially if it is your first attempt. There are several ways to scale this workout. One can do just the even reps and or lower the percentages of your body weight used for each lift.
One of the tricks I use is to remind myself that after I complete the round of 8, I am half way done. Post time and weights used to the comments section.

“Kelly” 38:43. My first date with her. Thanks, Herb – without you, I would have quit after 3 rounds.

381 lb DL at 170 lb BW – no wraps, cross hand grip. My previous PR in college was 425 at 210 lb.
I bow to JB for his mad rowing skills.

i’m much more impressed with a 2xBW DL. my row times seemed ok because i was sandbagging the first 3!
