    Odd Max Set of Strict Pull-Ups
    Even Sustainable Set of Pistols

    The pull-ups are going to fall off fast but fight for as high of a number as you can during each round in 1 attempt.  As soon as you need to come down off the bar your set is over.  If you are on the band go hard but be sure you can come off the bar safely.

    Deadlift 3×3 ~ 85%

    Work up to about 85% of your 1RM and make perform 3 sets of 3 at that weight.  If you are new to lifting start light and work up to a moderately heavy set of 3.  Make small increases in weight and focus on perfect technique as the weight gets heavy rather than total #’s lifted.

    Keep the weight light and only perform the ground to shoulder movement if you can keep your back flat for the entire range of motion.  Bring the dumbbells down to the knees or lower  if you are able to do it without compromising your back.
