Yes, 210 is a lot of push-ups and deadlifts, that’s why the weight was set where it was.

I figured it was the easiest with by bar and bumpers. I don’t have the rubber floor mats, and the 25# bumbers are much more stable to land on than the 10# rubbers and iron after that. (I guess a 35# bar would have come in handy here.) It was only 10# over Rx, so I don’t want to use that as an excuse. I plan on doing the second half in the morning, (55 DLs and 155 PUs). I know Angie asks for 100 of 4 different exercises, and I get in 10+ rounds on Cindy, but 155 sure does sound like a lot of PUs. Good thing I didn’t do the math before I started this workout. 210 DLs and PUs is a helluva workout. I also considered doing the PUs on rings, or switching the PUs to ring dips. Something to shoot for. Get some, rinse, repeat!

Jeez, Jeff. Why did you go more than 1/2 bw?

Killer. Need work on this I see. About 25:00 for the first half of this one (20-1…11-10). Second half might have been easier (with 3/4 of the DLs out of the way), but I called uncle. bwt 175#. DL w/ 95#. Back should feel good and tight tomorrow. Good one!
