Sumo Deadlift 3-3-3-3-3

Like last week’s overhead squat workout work up to a “work weight” and attempt to use the same weight for all 5 sets. In addition, for this workout you must lower the bar to the ground and then re-grip (or stand up and reset) before each rep. In other words there will be no bounce and every rep will be like a first rep. This will may require to use a lighter load than your current 3 rep max.
