Heavy, with a Chance of High Heart Rate

Thursday’s workout  is heavy, relatively low rep affair.  Much like 17.3, you will need to make heavy, technical lifts with a heart rate that will become more elevated as the workout goes on.  If you are able to sling 185/115 around, this will be a fun smash.  If you think 185 is makeable, but it may get dicey, do the burpees quick, take your time to set up and drill the lift.
If you need to scale, that’s fine. Look into the 75% of 1RM area.  It should be a weight that your are confident you can make, but knowing that if may get tough late.
Take 15-20 minutes to get warm.  Don’t be afraid to go a little over the workout weight, and make that bar feel “light” when the workout starts.
