In addition to today’s strength element is a metabolic speed and agility drill often used in sports training. A breath of fresh air.

Today’s Workout:

“Dead Man’s Shuffle”
Deadlift
1-1-1-1-1-1-1
Seven sets to find your 1 rep max lift

then…

Wall to wall lateral shuffle(feet do not crossover) down and back = 1 (20ft between walls)
Each round is 1 minute
4 shuffles first minute (ex:if 4 shuffles takes 27 sec. then you get to rest 33 sec)
add 1 shuffle every minute on the minute for 10 rounds(10 minutes)
