Well, this isn’t today’s workout in the least, but I did a mashup of yesterday and Tuesday’s workouts.


7 rounds for time

10 alternating DB snatch @ 50lbs

2 front squats at 205lb


I forgot to actually time myself. It was pretty smooth sailing until round 6. Last 2 squats on round 7 were rough. Good workout for me.

Commented on: Is Your Blood Sugar Undermining Your Workouts?

This brings to mind what I've read recently about some endurance athletes "training low", meaning their glycogen stores are depleted before training, on their long-volume days. This enables them to burn more fat and build up mitochondria and avoid the pitfalls mentioned in this NYT article about training in the hyperglycemic state.

This article on Chris Froome talks about his fueling strategy, which is adapted to the type of training he's doing. He's low-carb most days, but carbs up on high-intensity days and on race day. Given the unknown, semi-random nature of CrossFit, it might not be possible to fuel ahead as he does. Or at least not with the same degree of precision. Another good article with more specifics on his macros is here.

As rx’d, 3 rounds + 13 GHDs.


Did these as strict as I could.  No kip swing, no kip on the dip, but my knees definitely bent on a several reps to help me get through the transition.  GHDs unbroken.  Warmed up with some power cleans, working up to triples at 205.

Hi Chris

Not sure if you remember me--I contacted you on the message boards about 4 and half years ago for advice on doing all the hero WODs. Today is the anniversary of the day I finished the first 167 heroes (the other 32 hadn't come out yet) in about just as many days. Thanks for your inspiration!

WOD ANALYSIS


Coaching notes:

At first glance, this WOD is released for first time.


Modality: This high intensity exercise is a single modality that includes 2 elements of high skill gymnastic movements.


Purpose: The training purpose is to improving the muscular endurance. This WOD is fire the shoulder and core muscles, like the WOD of yesterday. Shoulder muscles are challenged in the first movement as a main role. Furthermore, the core muscles and hip power improve by performing GHD sit-ups.


The reason for choosing reps: The reps of movements are low and they are selected so that athletes do them unbroken, at least for 4 first rounds. Otherwise, the trainers are advised to scale them.


Scoring (round numbers): Athletes must do at least 10 rounds of this cycle. Advanced athletes can do at least 12 rounds.


Running a class: Trainers have 45 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 do not have a GHD machine, they can perform 20 reps of abmat sit-up.


Physiology (GPP): Muscular endurance plays the major role in this WOD. Furthermore, cardiorespiratory endurance, strength and mobility are challenged. 


Physiology (energy pathway): The aerobic system is the dominant energy pathway.


Anatomy:

Muscle up: Latissimus dorsi, Pectoralis major (sternum head), Biceps, Triceps.

GHD sit up: Rectus abdominis, Iliacus Psoas, Rectus femoris.

_______________________


Running a 60 min class:

Whiteboard: ≈ 3 min

General warm-up: ≈ 8 min

Specific warm-up for MU ≈ 7 min

Specific warm-up for GHD sit up ≈ 5 min

WOD: = 15 min

Cool-down: ≈ 10 min


Additional time: It remains ≈ 12 minutes that can be divided in specific warm-up or cool-down.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

This is a weird combo to go for 10 minutes, so I'm wondering if the goal on this one is not necessarily for intensity, but instead to keep the volume low. If that's the case, it's important to remember that these workouts are part of a whole, not an isolated thing. What I mean by that is there will be days where you should come out of a workout feeling like there's more in the tank or you didn't get a "good one" out of it. Having those will help you recharge for a workout that really needs your full output.


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Strict muscle-up - clearing an obstacle, pulling, pushing, lots of range of motion, open-chain (rings instead of bar)

GHD sit-up - Pulling from the hips, riding midline, change of orientation


WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT

The muscle-ups would be expected to be unbroken for most of the workout, and GHD sit-ups should as well. Because of the nature of both movements - the speed of them and the transition time it takes to get into them - intensity might not be as high as usual 10-minute workouts.


TECHNIQUE SCALE

As is, scale the muscle-ups for unbroken-ness and GHD sit-ups ROM, and extend it out to like 20 minutes.


CONSISTENCY SCALE

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

10 strict pull-ups

10 strict dips

20 GHD sit-ups


INTENSITY SCALE

Switch kipping muscle-ups for strict ones, and burpees for GHD sit-ups.

Practice GHD sit-ups in the warmup


MY STUFF

Did 10 minutes of 3 barely kipping muscle-ups w/strict dips and 12 GHD sit-ups. I didn't count rounds, as I was distracted watching the worst game of Pig ever with Aaron, Javier, and Owen. Javier won all 3.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 4
