That would be helpful. I tried this and recommend baking at least 25 minutes around 350 degrees.

As rx’d, 16:59.


We’re still waiting for the grass to sprout in the back yard, so I did the HS walks in the gym — 4 meters out and back. Haven’t done muscle-ups in quite a while (April!) so did quite a bit of warm-up to get the shoulders prepped. Did MUs all as singles, as strict as possible. No kip swing, but I probably popped the hips at the top on several reps. Deads felt really heavy today.

6 rounds:

1) 8 wall walks with shoulder taps each side per round (left arm collapsed on 4th round during last rep of shoulder taps; remaining 2 rounds did 8 wall walks only)

2) 4 toenail assisted RMU with 5-second ring hold at top with arms locked out

3) 2x deadlifts @ 235 lb. 1st round, 225 lb. rounds 2-5, 6th round at 205 lb.

Time: embarrassingly long; should have scaled. Lesson learned.

This is a nice combo of skilled gymnastics and heavy lifting. I will look to preserve the intent of each movement and have all athletes finish this workout in under 12 minutes. Here are some thoughts on scaling:


Handstand walk- I like that the workout is using handstand walks prescribed at a relatively short distance each round and that the overall volume accumulated is not very high. However, being that the skill demand of this movement is high, many of my athletes will need to modify the movement to maintain the stimulus. I also expect the muscle-ups will have a significant impact on this movement. For athletes that have the capacity to handstand walk, but cannot achieve consistent 3 meter efforts, I will have them reduce the distance each round or limit them to 3 attempts to achieve 8-meters. Other options I will provide today are: handstand shoulder taps, “around the worlds” on a box, plank shoulder taps, and a high hips bear crawl. I will assign reps/distance on an individual basis or assign a 0:45 duration to practice each round.


Strict Muscle-ups: I consider the volume of this movement to be fairly high but reasonable, for many, when spread out in sets of 4. I don’t expect high level athletes to spend a ton of time here. I will coach my athletes into a scaling variation that keeps the movement strict. I will also stay away from modifying the movement to a pull-up/dip combo. For athletes that can do a few muscle-ups, but the overall volume leads to failed reps or significant rest breaks, I will reduce the reps each round. When modifying the movement, I will use variations with feet on the ground for all athletes today. The easiest scaling option will be to have my athletes start with their feet directly below the rings, with legs bent, and utilize lower-body assistance, as needed, throughout the range of motion. This movement looks easy, but when done in a slow and controlled manner, it can provide quite a challenge for many. From here, I can simply increase the difficulty by straightening the legs with the feet in front of the rings. The further the feet are away from the rings the harder the movement will be. The difficulty of this movement can be further increased by elevating the feet on a box.


Deadlift: I consider the intent to be a HEAVY load where the athlete can complete 2 reps in a row, but may need to rest a little before attempting the lift. I will modify loads for my athletes to achieve this goal. I will have newer athletes lift heavy relative to their capacity but will not have a them lifting near 2-rep max loads.

After having my shoulder and hip replaced, I don't do today exercises. Instead I looked at the Girls to try and find 'an easy one' for today. I found Angie (100s of pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, and squats). Having done this many times, I thought to make it four rounds of 25 to make it easy. I called it 'Easy Angie'. After just completing it, I should have called it 'Not So Easy Angie'. My best Angie is about 20. This tool me 19:04. I expected less than 17. More work to do.

Globo scale: sub 16 m bear crawl or 2 minute wall handstand hold for us walk. Strict muscle up sub 4 weighted strict chest to bar pullups and 6 weighted bar dips. Deadlifts as rxed. Dumbbells sub do 8 dumbbell devils press 50/35lb dbs (not a deadlift but trying to preserve a heavy stimulus.


If you deadlift over 500lbs use 405lbs for this one (females 305 If over 375). If you have an obstacle use it today for the hs walks.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT:

Anything low-volume should always jump out as a red flag; those are usually the worst workouts in terms of discomfort they make you feel afterwards. But (as Mama V would say), “Biiiiiiiigggg Butt,” low volume means there is also an assumed amount of competence that would make that dose sufficient for the day. For example, the worst track workout I’ve ever done (and the kids will agree) is 4 300m sprints with full recovery between. It’s barely a half mile, and if you don’t have the capacity to make it the worst 45-50 seconds of your life, then it will just be a glorified warmup. Take that into account here. If you don’t have the capacity, do more reps or more rounds.


I SHOULD TRY THIS RX’D IF: I did not do this as rx’d, but is under 7-minutes out of the question?


GROUP VERSION: 10 rounds of: 1:00 handstand walk practice, :30 dips or pull-ups (pick one), :30 deadlift. This allows for big groups to be put in stations and variation of skill level to get something out of each station. I also added a 15-second transition period between.


INJURY VERSION:

Heavy, fast, upside down, clearing an obstacle, pulling, pushing, locomotion, squatting. Pick two things from there and practice for 20 minutes. Usually intensity is difficult to come by when injured — especially lower-body — so double down on the stuff you can do until you heal.


WARMUP:

Squat — deadlift prep

Hip extension — more deadlift prep

Jump rope — always

[insert thing you suck at]

[insert thing you suck at]


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL (1=REST DAY, 10=PR-DRIVEN FGB): 7

INTENDED STIMULUS

.

Fast, heavy, and high skill! This workout is a beast! It is also an ego trap. For some, it might feel pointless. "I am never going to be able to do all this! Why should I even do this?" Others might have the skills or the strength but not both. Some might want to try this RX just to feel that awesome, but not hitting the right stimulus. As we said, it is an ego-fuck. Keep in mind this: this is meant to be a sprint. It should be for sure difficult and heavy, but also unbroken and fast. It is just a short workout. Your scaling today should aim for that. Choose a load on the deadlifts that is on your upper percentages 75%-80%, but that will not stop you. Choose a number of reps and a distance in the gymnastics movement that is right on the edge of your capacity but that you will try to get unbroken. This workout should be fast but not rushed. The speed should come from the fact that you just jump from one movement to the next with virtually no wasted time on transitions. There is usually a lot of disparity between gymnastics skills and strength movements. In your scaling don't try to compensate your weaker link with the strongest, that feels like a better stimulus, but it is not. You are just setting yourself up poorly for the hardest skill. The next options are just ideas, for this one, you might have to find a more personalized option. Finally, keep something in mind, the difficulty in skills and loads is there just to keep us motivated, striving for more, and wanting to be fitter. But the important thing is not the destination, it is the fact you are doing your thing today. Regardless of where you are, today feel fucking awesome.
