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 Strength & Conditioning 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 Strength & Conditioning where this is acceptable).  See videos below for some appropriate scaling options
