“Diane”
21-15-9 Reps For Time:
Deadlifts (225/155)
Handstand Pushups

Post Deadlift Loads and Workout Rounds to Comments
For the strength segment, work up to a heavy set of 3 Deadlifts.  Lower all reps back to the floor under some control.  Don’t just drop the bar from your hip.

The conditioning workout is a CrossFit Benchmark WOD.  Scale Deadlift load to 65% 1RM for maximum intensity.  For HSPUs, DO NOT cut your ROM short by using Abmats under your head (unless you can tell me one other exercise we do in CrossFit where this is acceptable).  See videos below for some appropriate scaling options

For the strength segment, with either an over or underhand grip perform single reps, getting your chin over the bar, as heavy as possible without kipping.

For the conditioning workout, scale your Pistols as necessary…be sure your knee tracks in the direction of your toes whatever you do.  Keep tight form on Ball Slams…you should be in a good “bottom of the squat” posture as you slam and receive the ball off the ground.
