The third workout of this series was named Lipson, after Dave Lipson.
This workout was a 21-15-9 of “Medium/Heavy” Back Squat (185lbs) and 1.5 Pood Kettlebell Swings (about 53lbs?).
The only catch with this workout, is that the 185lb Back Squat could not be taken in and out of a rack. You had to clean the weight up to your shoulders, and then get it on your back before squatting. That certainly made it tougher.
I didn’t think there was a chance of getting through 21 and then 15 Back Squats at 185lbs, but I ended up doing it. Slowly. But I did it. That meant I didn’t have to clean that weight up more than the 3 times. Win. Well, 3 workouts of the 8 in this series done. Still “Rx-ing” them all.
The next workout is Muscle-Ups and HEAVY Deadlifts (335lbs) for a 7 minute AMRAP. A little more up my alley than the last 3. Not sure when I’ll do it, but I’ll let you know when I do!
