6. JACKHAMMER – EMOM Barbell Workouts

Every 3 minutes For as Long as Possible
12 Deadlifts (205/135 lb)
6 Strict Handstand Push-Ups
12 Hand Release Push-Ups
18 Burpees
With a running clock, every 3 minutes perform the prescribed work for as long as possible. Once the athlete fails to complete the prescribed work in the 3-minute window, the workout is done.

Score is the total number of rounds and repetitions completed.

Tips and Strategy

2-3 rounds will be a solid and worthwhile effort. However, many of you may achieve much more than that. Think of having the ability to get all the reps unbroken for a few rounds as a good starting point.

Scaling Options

Scale the loading and reps to allow 2:00-2:30 minutes of work and 1:00-0:30 minutes of rest to start. Kipping is not an option. If you need to scale the Strict Handstand Push-Ups, use a Pike Push-Up or a seated Dumbbell Strict Press.
