So the goal is for the slowest round to be under 5:30. With this complex-style movement it is absolutely essential that you keep your back straight and your belly tight at all times throughout every rep. The Deadlift + Bent Over Row is full deadlift to standing - back down to below knee + bent over row.
For the deadlift, the DBs will start on the ground. Feet are under the hips. Heels are down. Hips and knees are bent. Hands and grip are outside of the legs. Arms are straight. Chest is up. Belly tight. Back flat! To lift the DBs drive your heels into the ground and lift your chest. Keep arms straight, chest up and belly tight as you stand all the way up at the top.
To lower - send your butt back. Keep your chest lifted and belly tight. Keep those heels down. Once the DBs go below the knees is when you start the bent over row.
For the bent over row portion, keeping the torso position set and the chest lifted - you will pull the elbows back and bring the dumbbells to just below the chest. Keep the belly tight. Bring the dumbbells back to just below the knee with the arms straight at the bottom. No kipping or pulling your CHEST down!
The run should take about 3-3:30. If it is taking longer than 3:45, shorten the distance to 400m. If unable to run due to space or weather purposes - 3 min doubles/singles/low step ups/Mtn Climbers/taps to a low target.

KB/DB Deadlift + Bent Over Row - The If your pregnant and the shape of your belly is making reaching the floor difficult or if you're postpartum and managing core rehab through practice of proper posture, sub: Sumo Stance KB/DB Deadlift or elevate the DBs/KB so its not so low to the ground when you pick it up. If you are working on healing any pelvic floor dysfunction make sure you are able to breathe properly throughout the entire range of motion and that you are not bracing or bearing down. Feel free to make this movement two separate parts. Meaning complete the deadlifts and then complete the bent over rows if you have to modify the deadlifts and it complicates the combined movement.
RUN/JOG - To avoid the added pressure to the pelvic floor that the impact from running can create, sub: Taps, Row, Bike, Farmer Carry, Sled Push/Drag, Quick Step Ups. If you're postpartum and working towards rehab-ing your core and pelvic floor you can choose from the same subs for pregnancy and/or scaling the distance that you run so that you can focus on your posture, breathing mechanics, and managing the pressure of your or and pelvic floor.
