Workout Description

10 Rounds For Time: 12 Deadlifts (155/105 lb) 9 Hang Power Cleans (155/105 lb) 6 Push Jerks (155/105 lb)

Why This Workout Is Very Hard

A brutal CrossFit Games WOD from 2016 (Workout #7), 'Double DT' doubles the volume of the classic Hero WOD 'DT'. It consists of 10 grueling rounds for time, each with 12 Deadlifts (155/105 lb), 9 Hang Power Cleans (155/105 lb), and 6 Push Jerks (155/105 lb). This tests barbell cycling endurance, grip, and mental toughness to an extreme degree.

  • Beginner: >28:45

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (10/10): Cycling through 270 total barbell movements (120 DL, 90 HPC, 60 PJ) at 155/105 lbs will exhaust full-body strength-stamina, particularly grip, back, legs, and shoulders, to an absolute limit. This is a monumental test of barbell stamina.
  • Endurance (8/10): Ten rounds for time of the 'DT' complex: 12 Deadlifts (155/105lb), 9 Hang Power Cleans (155/105lb), 6 Push Jerks (155/105lb). This is an extreme test of barbell cycling endurance, grip strength, and mental toughness over a very high volume of moderate-heavy lifting.
  • Strength (7/10): The 155/105 lb load is moderate-heavy, but the sheer volume (10 rounds) makes this an exceptional test of strength endurance and the ability to maintain technique and cycle a barbell under extreme fatigue.
  • Power (7/10): Hang power cleans and push jerks are primary power movements. Deadlifts, if cycled with intent, also contribute. Maintaining power output through 10 grueling rounds is critical.
  • Speed (5/10): Efficient cycling of the barbell complex is key. Speed will naturally degrade due to fatigue and grip failure. Managing transitions and minimizing rest while maintaining form is paramount.
  • Flexibility (4/10): Requires mobility for deadlifts, hang power cleans (front rack), and push jerks (overhead) to be performed efficiently for 10 rounds.

Modality Profile

A pure weightlifting workout. Ten rounds of a barbell complex is a monumental test of barbell cycling and strength endurance.
