Didn’t do this one. Instead did a 40th birthday workout celebrating a pregnant, 11 year veteran member of mine in the rain with some of my other members today:
For time:
Medicine “baby” carry “over the hill”(300m)
40 strict dumbbell shoulder presses
40 lunges with medicine ball
Medicine “baby’” carry ”over the hill”
40 burpees to medicine ball or box (easier)
Medicine “baby” carry ”over the hill”
40 strict ring rows
40 squats with medicine ball or pistols
Medicine “baby” carry ”over the hill”
25:47 Just barely edged out my pregnant friend 😬😬😬😬😂 obviously no med ball carries for her. We did the carries in sympathy and for her amusement. Medicine baby carry means to carry the ball against the abs except on squats and lunges carry any how. I used a larger 30lb slam ball and 40lb. Dumbbells and did pistol squats.

Globo/Home scale: If at a globo gym or a park without rings sub 3/1 dips and pullups for the RMU. If using rings and scaling do 2/2. You can also sub/scale the RMU to seated RMU or banded RMU, or work MU progressions then do the dip/pullup sub during the WOD. For the front squat, if using 35/50lb dumbbells, increase the reps to 30 per round. Otherwise get creative and use odd objects like sandbags, bricks, ect for the front squats. Bodyweight sub 15 pistols per leg per round, scale to Bulgarian split squats if needed.

WOD ANALYSIS
Coaching notes:
This exercise is one of the scariest exercises of the last few days. You should perform high complex heavy weight movements in the high reps with all-out manner. The trainers must perform this hard WOD in the shortest possible time.
Template: This WOD follows “For Time” template, so scoring is based on as fast as possible.
Modality: This exercise is a couplet modality that is combined of a heavy weightlifting movement and a high complex gymnastic movement.
Purpose: The main purpose of this exercise is to implement high skills in the form of the high-intensity exercise; high reps and heavy weight. The athletes must perform the heavy resistance in 20 reps. Resistance must be selected so that it is at least 85 percent of an athlete’s one repetition maximum.
The other purpose is improving the lactic acid energy pathway and increases the lactate tolerance.
Note: This WOD set in 3 rounds. So overall, athletes should perform 60 heavy front squats and 21 muscle-ups.
Time to perform: This High intensity WOD takes about ≈ 6 min, so if the athletes perform it longer than ≈ 6 min, trainer can scale it. Advanced athletes can do it under 5 min.
Running a class: Trainers have ≈ 44 min for set other parts. So he/ she can set the other parts according to purpose of the training and level of physical fitness of athletes.
Scale method: If the athletes cannot perform muscle-ups, the trainers are advised to scale it.
Physiology (GPP): Strength, and stamina play a major role in this exercise. Furthermore, cardiorespratory, flexibility, balance and coordination are challenged.
Physiology (energy pathway): The lactic acid is a dominant energy pathway in this exercise program.
Anatomy:
Front Squat: Gluteus maximus, Quadriceps, Hamstring, Gastrocnemius, Soleus
Muscle-up: Latissimus dorsi, Pectoralis major (sternum head), Biceps Triceps
_________________________
Running a 60 min class:
Whiteboard: ≈ 3 min
General warm-up: ≈ 5 min
Specific warm-up for Front Squat: ≈ 5 min
Specific warm-up for Muscle-up: ≈ 7 min
WOD: ≈ 6 min
Cool-down: ≈ 10 min
Additional time: It remains ≈ 27 minutes that can be divided in specific warm-up or cool-down.
Train hard and challenge your body. Enjoy it ;)
GOOD LUCK

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
I think it helps to read these workouts and pretend you have the capacity to do all the movements fluidly at the weights and variations listed. That will help get a picture for what the purpose was originally intended. Being able to do 20 front squats in a row at 185 and 7 muscle-ups in a row is not that uncommon (I don't think I can do the former). So just know that if someone has the capacity in both, this would be a really miserable experience. Elizabeth-type feel.
MAIN DECISION
Do I want to scale muscle-ups to preserve intensity or to preserve the actual movement (pull-ups and dips, or kipping modifications)?
NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE
3 rounds of:
30 dumbbell front squats
12 burpees
WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS
Front squat - squatting, more upright torso than usual, external load, external rotation in the shoulders
Muscle-up - scaling an obstacle, core-to-extremity, skill, pulling, pushing, global extension, global flexion
WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT
This sequence is probably something we could do unbroken if we accomplished everything we needed to on this planet and were looking for a quick-yet-painful escape into the afterlife. For anyone else, breaking up the reps in round 2 but feeling guilty about it is the thing we're probably looking for.
LEARN TO COOK
The muscle-ups are going to be the thing to look at. If you were to scale them to burpees instead, then make them a number that is kind of like a 400m sprint - short enough to be capable of sprinting but long enough not to want to. 12-15 might be a good number. The weight on the front squat should then be set to keep the pace/misery going. If you want to do strict pull-ups and dips, know the intensity is probably going to go down, and it might be a good idea to take advantage of that and keep the front squat weight a little heavier than you would usually.
I DON'T WANT TO COOK, JUST GIVE ME FOOD
New to CrossFit version, or sub rope climbs instead of burpees, then practice muscle-up stuff in the warmup.
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 8, maybe 9 if you're sweet at both. Seriously, i didn't go to that place today, but this one could be miserable.

▶ INTENDED STIMULUS
Man! Heavyweights, high reps, and high skill, this workout is no joke. The good thing is that it is only (?) three rounds. This means one thing and one thing only: eyes on the second round. The article on CrossFit.com today is an excellent reminder of how to approach this beast. Mechanics, consistency, and then intensity. That same article breaks the muscle-up scaling nicely. Please read it. It will make you fitter. I am serious knowing how to scale more effectively makes you fitter than exertion for the sake of exertion. So let's talk about the front squat. The same principles apply. Is your air squat excellent, or does it need work? Is your front rack awesome, or does the bar rest on your hands and sternum but not on your shoulders? If your front squat is meant, let's look for intensity. Choose a load that is heavy for you but that you can cycle for 20 reps unbroken if you were going to go for it when fresh. By no means, we imply that you should do this workout unbroken. If you can, you were probably a little light. We are looking for 2-3 breaks per round. But it should be a weight you can manage for 20 reps with solid mechanics. Aim your scaling so that each round takes you no more than 4 minutes. Focus on awesome quality of movement and track your rest smartly. HAVE FUN!
▶ OPTION 1
3 rounds for time of:
20 front squats
5 muscle-ups
♀ 95 lb. ♂ 135 lb.
▶ OPTION 2
3 rounds for time of:
20 front squats
7 Kipping Rings to Hips + 7 Russian Push-ups
♀ 80 lb. ♂ 115 lb.
▶ OPTION 3
3 rounds for time of:
20 front squats
7 False Grip Ring Rows + 7 Dips/Jumping Dips
♀ 65 lb. ♂ 95 lb.
NOTE ON SCALING: I will take this opportunity to explain my logic behind the options I give each day. What I do is what I call block scaling. In general, I reduce the workload of the whole workout in an even manner for all movements. I also track what we have been doing in the previous workouts and try to emphasize different aspects of each movement sot that the modifications build on each other. However, this has never meant you should be stuck on one option or that these are levels. These are just guidelines you can use to adjust the workouts for your own needs. The idea is to make sure that the WODs posted here are usable for everybody. My experience as a coach in boxes and on 1-to-1 settings tells me that having block options ready is the best an easier way to apply the principles on today's articles, even if you, as a coach, don't present those blocks to your athletes. Anyhow give that article a read. IT IS AWESOME!
