Work Out of the Month - Oct

Try this work out - let me know your times:
3 Rounds - 21 / 15 /9 :

Deadlift (185 lbs) - scale down if necessary.
Burpees
Suicide Run of 5/10/15/20/15

Round One -
21 Deadlifts (whatever weight you use) -- heavy lifts, probably can't do all 21 at a time. I did three sets of 7 myself. Then switch to Burpees - these sucked, all 21. Then the Suicide Run -- reminds me of football practice - it sucked even more.

Round Two-
15 Deadlifts - pretty tired at this point, did three quick sets of 5. Then onto 15 Burpees - which sucked again. Suicide Run - this second one nearly killed me.

Round Three -
9 Deadlifts - three rounds of three, not much left in the gas tank. 9 Burpees in a row - that put me on empty. Last Suicide Run was basically a jog.

Time: 13:35 --- and I was pretty darn happy at that.
