Greetings all!  One more day until the weekend.  Today's WOD was brought to me in part by:

Deadlift.  Looking for a simple yet effective lift with its capacity to increase head to toe strength?  Here is your answer!

Accompanied by the deadlifts were a couple sets of cleans and rings dips in a 21-15-9 rep scheme i.e. Elizabeth.

It has been a while since I have done 3x3 deadlifts.  I was expecting my numbers to be quite low from the last time and I was pleasantly surprised that it did not go down that much.

Deadlift 3x3
285, 305, 315

The next time this rolls around I will be sure to increase the weight as I'm fairly confident that I can lift more than 315 for 3.  Time will tell!  From the last time, this was only a 5# difference.

Now with Elizabeth.....1:56 PR!  Woot!  Now this was a complete surprise.  I thought I was going to come back completely defeated but that sure as hell didn't stop me from giving my all and look at the result of not quitting.  Never give up.  I know that you are your own worst critic.  You can easily talk yourself out of doing something just because you don't think you have the ability   Give yourself a chance.  Don't go in with a defeated attitude.
