SWOD: Deadlift 5 RM

325(f)

Failed on the fourth rep and, to add injury to insult, tweaked my back while putting the weight down. Felt reasonably strong on the second and third reps, but started hitching really badly on the fourth. Rather than grind through it, I decided to dump. Starting Strength has arrived, so plan is to learn to deadlift properly and do a reset.

DWOD: Complete 7 rounds of:

7 towel pull-ups
1.5 pood KBS, 7 reps

Did three rounds as rx'd, but decided to sub kipping pull-ups for towel pull-ups for the last four rounds. Was able to storm through the first round of towel pull-ups, but the break for KBS was too short to regenerate strength. If I had more time, I would have continued as rx'd and done sledgehammer strikes.
