Heavy Set of 6
Heavy Set of 4
Heavy Set of 2

WOD: 'OPTIMUS PRIME'
AMRAP 7:
Wallballs (20/14)
On the Minute: 5 Deadlifts
RX  225/155  55+ 165/115
The workout starts on the wallballs
Score is total wallballs

STRATEGY
• Since the workout starts on the wallballs, the first minute will be the best chance to complete the biggest set of the day
• After the first round, shoot for 1-2 sets per minute
• Have a goal in mind going into the workout on how many reps or for how many seconds you want to hold on for
• With 45-50 seconds to work on the ball, this number is likely in the 12-24 rep range
• Go unbroken for the 5 deadlift reps and transition back to the ball quickly
• Make sure your barbell is relatively close to the medicine ball to ensure fast transitions

CONDITIONING
Alternating On the Minute x 10 (5 Rounds):
Minute 1: 50' Sled Pull
Minute 2: 30 Seconds Max Calorie Row
• This should be a moderately heavy weight that you can run with and complete in roughly 30 seconds
