Deadlift x 6
Hang Clean x 6
Front Squat x 6
Hang Snatch x 6
Overhead Squat x 6
Front Press x 6
Bentover Row x 6
Romanian Deadlift x 6
No rest in between sets and don't put down the bar. Lift for speed and keep track of how long it takes to go through. Next set try and beat that time.

yeah ... i've done one similar to that, but there were 2 more lifts and some pushups at the end. b.r.u.t.a.l. I only made it through 3 cycles before I had to lay down.
whatever we do tomorrow, though, should really be focused on legs and lower back. I hit the rest of my body pretty hard the rest of the week and don't like to repeat things before I've had a chance to rest properly.
definitely post up after you have a chance to go through your log. I think I like your idea of a squat-deadlift superset ... maybe do the squats high to emphasize the quads and the deadlifts sumo to emphasize the glutes and hams.
and maybe add bands to the deads to really force us to be explosive off the ground.
other brutal squat-dead superset ideas?
