Deadlifts & Double Unders

Able to hit the WOD this morning so that I can do a cardio session tonight.  Excited about getting in on this WOD.

5 rounds for time:
7 Deadlifts (315# Rx)
21 Double Unders

We had a nice warmup of jump ropes and core work.  10 minutes to setup the deadlifts and get a few warmup reps in.  Hit 135, 225 and 315.  When on the bar with 315 I can do the weight but as I look at things 7 reps for 5 rounds is a bit much and once I start I can't drop weights.  So, I chose to go with 225 (in hindsight I should have bumped to 275) for the WOD.

Final score was 8:10.  Real pleased with this especially on my double unders.  That's where I really made up my time.  I was able to consistently string sets of 11 or more together.  I only went through 1 round where I was looking at sets of 3,4 or 5 only.  On my last round I did all 21 in a row and was smoked.

Need to really stretch out tonight.
