Extra Instructions / Goals
We are looking to progress weights today for 2 reps @ 85%. The focus here will be the first initial set-up and breaking tension off the floor. The rest between sets will be around that 2 minute mark to allow recovery and enough time to hit each set well. Scaling today will consist of the hex bar deadlift, sumo deadlift, or block deadlift.
