Time Cap: 10 Minutes 
GENERAL PACING 
* 22.2 is most definitely a back-half workout, so find a speed that you can maintain coming back down the ladder.
* As always, we recommend feeling out the practice round at estimated workout speed to find something sustainable.
* Be sure to practice the burpee standards beforehand to get comfortable with them to avoid any no reps during the test.

DEADLIFTS 
* Keeping the hands as narrow as possible will allow you to get to the ground and stand up more quickly. 
* Remember that you don't have to go unbroken to go fast on these.
* The breaks here can be super urgent and allow you to get off tension for a second.
* If this is a challenging movement, never do more than five reps at a time.
* Small sets make it much easier to start the deadlifts after finishing the burpees because you'll only have to do five reps.
* Example: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 5-4, 5-5, 5-4…..
* Be sure to move with excellent technique to preserve the lower back, as there is plenty of hinging between the two movements.

BURPEES
* Find a speed that you see yourself maintaining for the full 10 minutes (or 100 reps). 
* The best option here is likely jumping the feet back and stepping up one foot at a time.
* Facing the same bumper plate on each burpee will prevent you from getting dizzy.
