SWOD 1: Deadlift 5 – 5 – 5+
65, 75, and 85% of your 4-rep max (or 90% of your 1RM)

SWOD 2: Back squat 5 – 5 – 5+
65, 75, and 85% of your 4RM

SWOD 3: Shoulder Press 5 – 5 – 5+
65, 75, and 85% of your 4RM

The first set is 5 reps of 65% of your 4-rep max; the second set is 75%; the last set in each exercise is as many reps as possible at 85%. E.g. if your 4RM on the deadlift is 225 lbs (or your 1RM is 250), your sets would be 5 reps at 145, 5 reps at 170, and as many reps as you can knock out at 190. Record weights and reps to comments.
