Oct 14 - 3 Bars of Death

We've got an exciting workout this week - 3 Bars of Death!

I've scaled it slightly only so I'd be able to finish...

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps of the following triplet:

Dead-lift (1.25xBW up to 225 lbs)
Bench Press (BW up to 185lbs)
Clean (.75xBW up to 135 lbs)

Here's a demo of the entire workout

If you scale the weights down (or up) for any of the lifts mention your changes along with your score.

Fastest time wins!

Have fun with this one!
