Warm-up: jump rope; lower back/hamstring mobility

SS: Deadlift 5 RM

245

Really tried to focus on keeping hips elevated and "raising the chest"; unfortunately, flexibility is a huge issue and, by getting into this position, I was losing a lot of pulling power. Next time, plan is to make compromise and, instead, try to find happy medium where shoulders are in front of the bar, upper back/chest is tight, and hips are as high as possible.

CFSB: "1/2 Karen"
For time, complete:

75 wall-ball shots

4.50

Biggest problem was controlling the Dynamax ball against the wall. Target was really narrow and I had a few misses. This workout is perfect for a short METCON.
