As rx’d, 26/24/21/20/20.


I got about 5 fewer calories each round than when I did this back in 2018.  But today was just about getting through these.  I’m just not back to where I was post knee surgery.  Did front squats as last time, from the ground with first rep a squat clean.  Went unbroken, but just barely; and I think I probably shorted the depth on a few reps.  A little hesitant on box jumps but was able to get them all without incident.  They were definitely hard following front squats.  Had between 1:00-1:20 available to row each round, which is about 20 seconds less than last time.  Tough one but my legs needed it!

Scoring (time &reps): The first part of this WOD (10 front squats, 10 box jumps) takes about under 1:30. As a result, athletes will have 1:30 min for max cal row. The number of cal in this item determines the athlete's level.

Had to scale big time to accomplish a max row at 1:30

This is such a nicely written and useful introduction. Body fat is a surprisingly interesting topic, as it's not just a dumb fuel tank, but has many functions. Looking forward to part 2.

110lbs front squats

4-stairs "box" jumps

elliptical trainer for calories


20.2-20.0-19.2-17.2-17.3 = 85.9 calories


All bars from the ground.


On Rd.4 I rushed the power clean and got a cramp or snag or something in my back. Not fun. I finished the WOD but you can see the sudden drop in calorie output. All 3 exercises, and especially big stair jumps, were slowed by the cramp. It's tight, not sore. Let's see how it goes over the next 24 hours.

Love this, explaining hard science to members is a high part of my job and simple clear explanations help

WOD ANALYSIS


Coaching notes:

First of all, I have to say that the person who designed this program has a very high level of genius. This pattern of design reflects intelligence and ingenuity.


Template: This WOD follows 3 min all-out interval manner. This program cleverly used two templates of For Time and AMRAP together!!! In fact, the athletes must perform 10 front squats and 10 box jumps in For Time template and next perform max cal row in the remaining time as the AMRAP template. Overall, scoring is based on max cal row. In order to have better record (max cal), athletes must have enough time, so they have to complete 10 front squats and 10 box jumps in fastest time.


Modality: This exercise is a triplet modality that is combined of a moderate weight movement from weightlifting, high height box jumps from gymnastic and max cal row from metcan modality.


Focus: This WOD is focused on minimum time to perform the first part (for time) and max cal for second part (AMRAP), per each 3 min rounds. Trainers should encourage athletes to do it with their all-out effort and maximize their cal record.


Purpose: This program consists of three elements that challenge the lower body. This WOD improves the cardiorespiratory endurance, stamina and strength. In this WOD, athletes learn to how control the fatigue and continue the reps for break the records despite being tired. Also, 3 minutes of break time between rounds encourages athletes to try with their maximum effort.


Scoring (time &reps): The first part of this WOD (10 front squats, 10 box jumps) takes about under 1:30. As a result, athletes will have 1:30 min for max cal row. The number of cal in this item determines the athlete's level.


Note: Each athlete must perform at least one minute of high-speed row per round.


Scale method: The box height must be scaled to allow the athlete to perform 10 consecutive high jumps (without rest).


Running a class: Trainers have ≈ 30 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.


Physiology (GPP): Cardiorespiratory, stamina and strength play the major role in this WOD.


Physiology (energy pathway): The lactic acid system is the dominant energy pathway in each 3 min all-out round. At the end of each round, the athletes have to rest for 3 minute, thus recovering the energy path.


Anatomy:

Front squat: Gluteus maximus, Quadriceps, Hamstring, Gastrocnemius, Soleus.

Box jump: Gluteus maximus, Quadriceps, Gastrocnemius.

Cal- row: Trapezius (middle fibers), Latissimus dorsi, Biceps, Gluteus maximus, Quadriceps, Soleus

_______________________


Running a 60 min class:

Whiteboard: ≈ 3 min

General warm-up: ≈ 5 min

Specific warm-up for squat ≈ 4 min

Specific warm-up for box jump ≈ 3 min

Specific warm-up for row ≈ 5 min

WOD: = 30

Cool-down: ≈ 10 min

Train hard and challenge your body. Enjoy it ;)

GOOD LUCK

Hi Reza,

Firstly I must say thanks for the analyze you do for WODs and total 3 day sequences. Really great👍🏻


For WOD today I wonder if you have any bench for the max cal row? I managed to do à total of 140 cal row (average 28 cal/round). With scaled FS to 132IBs to manage the unbroken version per round. Whats your input in the row and do you have benchmarks?

Globo/ home scale: if you are at home and do not have an erg, do this as either : Run 200m, amrap in remaining time 10 front squats 10 box/bench jumps or 100 double unders, amrap in remaining time 10 front squats 10 box/bench jumps. Use dumbbells, kettlebells, ect for weight. Pistols can also be subbed for front squats. Box jumps can be subbed with bench jumps, object jump overs, knee jumps, or broad jumps. Sub max cals of an erg/assault/echo bike if you don't have a rower and have an erg/bike.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

I don't remember if I wrote this here on a recent rant or on our website or just talked about it to someone. Anyway, speed is a really important factor because a lot of flaws show up that stay hidden when we move slower. Speed, also, is not just quick transitioning between exercises but doing the actual reps, themselves, fast. This workout can give us an opportunity for that. Also, we should be very afraid of built-in rests.


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Front squat - squatting, upright torso, external load

Box jump - jumping, accuracy, big range of motion, probably not using elasticity (skill),

Row - locomotion, mono structural, deadlift shapes, push-up shapes, falling (skill)


WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT

3-on-3-off seems like a 1:1 work/rest ratio, but CrossFit workouts kind of disguise a longer rest because, for example, it might take 30 seconds to do 10 heavy front squats, and then you'll have 5:30 before doing your next set of front squats. So this basically allows for an insanely high intensity with minimal rest. It's evil, really.


TECHIQUE SCALE

4-5 rounds of:

1:00 front squat practice

rest 1 minute

1:00 box jump practice

rest 1 minute

1:00 row/run practice

rest 1 minute


CONSISTENCY SCALE

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

20 front squats

20 box jumps

200-meter run/row


INTENSITY SCALE

As is.


MY STUFF

I played around with a few different versions through the workout to see if we can turn this into a team workout.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 9
