AMA anytime and I'll try my best to provide a reasonable answer. Like any movement start with breaking in down. It's part deadlift and part clean. To replicate this movement I would take a plate (start with a weight the feels comfortable) and place it on something so it is an inch off the ground to allow you to get your fingers under it. Lift the plate to shoulder height like you were going to dump it over your shoulder. You could use a kettle bell or dumbbell to replicate as well. Placing the KB back on the ground after each rep.
Hi Rod, could I ask for some advice not Hyrox related? I'm doing a deka in the next few weeks as a milestone to my hyrox next year, and of the items is a 60lbs over the shoulder deadball, which none of my gyms have. Is there any alternative moves or machines that you'd recommend to imitate that station? Thanks!

I hope this makes some kind of sense.
