Happy with giving up a couple of seconds for each year. I put it down to greater mindfulness especially towards the more fragile shell I now inhabit ;)

I had a fantastic time this past weekend in Dallas with Abi, Spencer, and Zach!!! It was comforting to see a familiar face (Abi). I was blown away by the depth of knowledge this team possessed. Their passion for health, fitness and changing lives was the spearhead of the weekend. I want to be like them when I grow up. Thank you Abi, Spencer, and Zach.

First WOD after over 9 months of pure bro split life. It may have been easier to configure in a globo setting but man was this way more fun. Of course my first day back it's a benchmark to humble me.
Followed Bryan's warm up (was surprised I could still do DU'S) and completed Isabel in just over 6 minutes with an empty men's bar. This included however long it took me to stack 45s for said empty bar after the first 6 reps.
A year ago I would have been so mad but today it just feels so good to be back at it.

Hello
.
As a general warm up i did:
3 rounds
4x 10m monster walk (side, side, forth, back)
8 tempo bottom up press per side
10 scapula pull ups
Strength
1) snatch lift-off + snatch pull 5x1 up to 80kg
2) no feet no hookgrip snatch 4x3 up to 60kg
3) hang power sn. above knee + h.p. sn. below knee + ohs 5x1 up to 70kg
Specific warm up
2 rounds of 4 quick singles on 60kg
rest 5 min
and then, my first time with Isabel
2:13 @60kg
Quick singles from the beginning. Propably I should've been done first 5-10 unbroken, sub 2 is doable.

Phenomenal experience at the Level 2 in Dallas! Couldn't have asked for better trainers who truly pushed us to be better coaches in a respectful environment. Lots of fun was had while honing our craft. Can't wait to begin using new skills and it's already influenced me in my day job of being a Chemistry Teacher. Thanks again Abi, Spencer, and Zach for all your help and advice this weekend!

This is one of my favorite benchmarks! I consider the prescribed weight to be moderate and the intended timeframe is to be very short with higher level athletes finishing in under 2:00. I will look to have athletes use a load that allows for the 30 snatches to be completed in no more than 5:00-6:00 with sound mechanics. If needed I will modify the movement to the hang position if mechanics from the floor are difficult to maintain.

I haven't snatched in almost a year and haven't worked out in like 4 months, other than yesterday's WOD. I wasn't sure what weight I should do. Score:
2:04 @55#.
Do you think I should have gone heavier? I just was not sure on this one. I don't think I've ever done Isabel. Usually when I do Grace, I do 85#. Does anyone have any recommendations on what I should have used for weight?

Globo Scale- you have 3 options here. If with bumpers and bar do as Rxed. Scale weight as necessary. If with iron plates scale to something you can touch and go multiple reps, and consider low hang power snatches (from the shins) if you are working with smaller than standard plates. Finally, the dumbbell sub is 60 alternating dumbbell snatches 35/50lb.
Note- if you are proficient consider doing this one with squat snatches.

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
"So what do I do with the rest of the 55 minutes of the class?" So there are two options here, and you really need to read the group. The first is you nitpick on every possible thing about the snatch, mobilize one thing for your shoulders and one for your hips, do Isabel (or a modification - see below) and let everyone out 15 minutes early. If you don't today is right for that approach to your group, then find a way to turn it into a more traditional workout of sorts. See the New to CrossFit version.
PURPOSE
1) test and 2) give a nice hand gesture to the peeps who think high-rep Olympic lifts are dumb
NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE
5 rounds for time of:
30 snatches (hang position, a weight that's light enough for close to 30 in a row)
Run/row 400 meters
TRAINING SCALE
As is.
PRACTICE SCALE
Randy instead of Isabel. More reps for more feedback on your movement.
GROUP SCALE
Gameday decision
INJURY SCALE
You have squatting, jumping, rigid midline, overhead, and single modality themes today. I'd say pick one movement you can do and do 3 sets of max reps at it.Rest as needed between.
WARMUP
Handstand
Squat
Box jump
Kb swing
Pull-up
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 7

Joe D., Jessica P., and Brian C. were outstanding coaches demonstrating a vast amount of knowledge and expertise! The host site CrossFit KMC in Monticello IL was a great too. I took the course to learn more about myself and the CrossFit methodology. I recommend the course to anyone wanting to learn more about themselves and CF!

INTENDED STIMULUS
.
HELL YEAH! ISABEL! Benchmark day! One of the most important contributions of CrossFit is that of giving an operational and elegant definition of fitness. Thanks to this we can measure it, and hence improve it. In the traditional implementation of our methodology, benchmark workouts are there to measure our fitness and give us meaningful data points of our progress. In this context, the intended stimulus is that of measuring. That does not mean that you necessarily have to do it RX or that you need to do the same scale you did in a previous attempt. It also does not mean that if you don't improve today from earlier efforts, your fitness is stalling or regressing. It just means that your mindset should be that of observing where you are and how you can improve.
With that in mind, let's analyze this lovely little piece. Isabel was first posted on 041111. The purpose of this workout always has been to be a sprint (less than 5 minutes). We are looking for a weight that it is heavier than what you'd typically do on an average metcon. A weight you could cycle for 7+ reps if you were going to go for it when fresh. For this workout, erring on the side of lighter will be the better option. Completing this at 95-lbs under 2 minutes yields more average power output that doing it at 115-lbs over 3 minutes. And if you can finish it at 115-lbs under 3 minutes, you will be working at a higher intensity that if you do it at 135-lbs over 4 minutes. Don't get too hung up on the details. These numbers are just there to give you an idea that lighter in this context might create more intensity than heavier. Athletes learning how to snatch should ditch the timer and focus on form. Perform drills to master this movement.
Now, even though this is a benchmark going in with the pressure of having to PR is super counterproductive. Chill. You are fitter than before, have fun, and see what happens.
Thanks for posting such detailed breakdowns - I appreciate it. I also appreciate all the effort you put into your videos, it is very helpful and you have a lot of content on your channel.

Really good set. Stayed light at 65 lbs. right choice. Honestly, first time I ever felt I had mechanics down for a good squat snatch. Keep plugging away at it and don’t be afraid!!
