Notes
This workout begins from the standing position with the barbell on the floor and the Athlete standing tall. Each time the Athlete returns to the deadlift they will be responsible for loading their own barbell to the next appropriate weight. The same barbell must be used for the entire workout, and the Athlete may not receive assistance when changing the loads. Using additional pre-loaded barbells is not permitted.

Every rep counts in this workout. Credit will be given for partially completed rounds. You will enter your result by the total number of reps completed plus your tiebreak time (see below).

Special Tiebreak
In this workout, we are using a special tiebreak method. At the end of each set of 15 box jumps time should be marked. When you submit your final result, your score will be the number of reps completed. There will be another field in which you will enter the time of the last completed sets of box jumps.

For example, a male athlete finishes all the reps up to and including 25 deadlifts at 275 lb. plus an additional 5 box jumps, for a total of 120 reps. This is his score. He also finished the 15th box jump of the round with 135 lb. in 0:45, the 15th box jump of the round with 185 lb. in 2:14, and the 15th box jump of the round with 225 lb. in 6:32. In this case he will enter 6:32 as his time in the tiebreak field since this was the time of completion of his last full set of box jumps. This athlete would be ranked above someone who got 120 reps and a tiebreak time of 7:02, but below someone with 120 reps and a tiebreak time of 6:11.

Note: All tiebreak times must be reported in elapsed time, not in time remaining. If you are using a countdown timer, you must convert to elapsed time before reporting your score. For this reason, it is recom- mended that you set your clock to count up.

Equipment
• One Barbell
• Collars
• Plates to load to the appropriate weights for your division
• Box that is the appropriate height for your division

*The official weight is in pounds. For your convenience, the minimum acceptable weights in kilograms are:
Men: 61, 84, 102, 125, 143, 166 kg
Women: 43, 61, 70, 84, 93, 102 kg
Masters Men 55+: 43, 61, 84, 102, 125, 143 kg
Master Women 55+: 29, 43, 52, 61, 70, 84 kg

Video Submission Standards
Prior to starting, film the plates and barbell to be used so the loads can be seen clearly, as well as measuring the height of the box. All video submissions should be uncut and unedited in order to accurately display the performance. A second person with a stopwatch should be in the frame throughout the entire workout. Shoot the video from the side so it is clear the shoulders are behind the bar at the top of the deadlift, and the standing position can be seen while on top of the box.

    99….a little scary for me when I got to 275lbs as I felt on my 3rd rep that my back is starting to arch. Be aware of your form all the time, and keep in mind that being smart wont “hurt” you. Have a great Friday!

  2. Crysta P

    95. Really happy with this. Glad I went and got the extra set of plates to get to 185# and thanks Susan for telling me I would get there. Now I have a new deadlift PR. 🙂

  3. Susan

    65. My form started to go and I didn’t want to end up with a hurt back. Happy with this. This was a 40# PR for me.

    I knew you’d get there Crysta, great job!

  4. Sara J

    110…… 20 reps into 185… pretty happy with that considering the last time I maxed out I was at 215….
    do step ups for some recovery
    keep your form tight
    enjoy 🙂

  5. Margo Tuohy

    108…very happy with that score!
    Funny how 185# just stops you.
    Partnered with Sara G she did a great job keeping me going. She had a 30# PR. Great job Sara.

    I’ll take it, First time I’ve ever done 20 deadlifts at 225. Back is tight atm, but it isn’t hurting.

  7. Paul Bye

    92. Really happy with this one – my goal was to make it to the 275# round and I did (and got 2 of them). I think I even did pretty good form the whole time, my back is only “normal sore.”

  8. Susan Kian

    I had to invent a whole new technique for deadlifts…but it worked. I had to really pack my shoulders to isolate the muscles I wanted to use and avoid the ones I didn’t want to strain. Felt comfortable the whole workout….101. 14.3 done! Well done all! 2 more to go!

    Really appreciated the encouragement from coaches and my hubby. Rounded back on several reps at 185. Back is tight.
