Monday

210104

Workout of the Day

101

Barbara Ann:
5 rounds, each for time, of:

20 handstand push-ups
30 deadlifts (95/135 lb.)
40 sit-ups
50 double-unders

Rest precisely 3 minutes between rounds.

Post time to comments.


Scaling:
Reduce the reps and loading so you can complete each round quickly and in nearly unbroken sets. Each round should be a sprint, with rest occurring only in the 3 minutes between rounds. Reduce the total number of rounds to maintain speed rather than slogging through all 5.

Intermediate Option:
4 rounds, each for time, of:

10 handstand push-ups
20 deadlifts (95/135 lb.)
30 sit-ups
40 double-unders

Beginner Option:
3 rounds, each for time, of:

20 knee push-ups
20 deadlifts (45/65 lb.)
20 sit-ups
50 single-unders

Anyone have some tips or cues for double unders. I’ve tried penguin taps, using the cue “jump wrist wrist. I’m still struggling to learn these

One thing that helped me was to master alternating single-unders and double-unders, i.e., one DU, one SU, one DU, one SU, etc. I would also bend your knees, if necessary, until you get the hang of them, before moving to more efficient posture/movements.

As Rx:

R1: 4:02

R2: 3:44

R3: 3:51

R4: 4:10

R5: 4:32

lasts round I felt it. I paced too much on HSPU first round and broke that up and I didn’t break up the other 3 rounds. I did have to break up the last set. I would typically do 12-14 and then kip the rest.

DL I did 18,8,6 for almost all rounds.

i felt the sit-ups but could hammer through all of them. I did pause on the last round midway for a couple seconds.

All DUs were unbroken and pretty easy really.

I did this one pretty much right after getting home after work. I ate later on post wod. Good hard fun workout.

Little bit of running to warm up.

Push-ups are limiter for me, and did lighter deadlifts.


5 x (20 pike push-ups, 30 deadlifts @ 65lb, 40 sit ups, 50 double unders)


4:05, 4:11, 4:15, 4:19, 4:06


Steady workout, minimal breaks. Wasn’t crushed at end, so maybe should have gone faster?

Limited to dumbbells, don't have HSPU nor DU, so I did:

5 rounds, each for time, of:


20 DB shoulder presses | 2x9,5 kg DB

30 DB deadlifts | 2x14,5 kg DB

40 Abmat sit-ups

50 lateral jumps over DB


SCORE: 7'44'' | 7'16'' | 7'01'' | 6'24'' | 6'43''


35'08'' total, if I'm not mistaken.

Usually scale HSPU with pike push-ups, but came across a post accompanying a recent WOD that made a good case for using DB presses instead. Agree, even if my shoulders currently don't.

Great combo of movements and great cycle of WODs recently 👍 🙏

I was feeling my biceps today and thinking how that's funny because I never feel sore in my biceps.

Did the most obvious mistake on the 1st round and went too hard. DL was the movement that got my HR up. I should have done the DL 5+5+5+5 every round.


Had to take a cold shower after.

5-6 min per round. Took too long and had to stop at 4 rounds. 2 x 50# DB PP instead of HSPU. Who knew deadlifts were going to be the hard part today?

anchored toes for sit-ups

double-unders (25-30 consec, never unbroken)

Huge fall-off on Rd.4 -- I think I slowed down on sit-ups. All SUs were unbroken but quicker in Rds.1-3. On Rd.5, I broke HSPUs at 11-9. Also, every round I broke DLs at 21-9.

Ran out of time so had to make some format concessions today - fun, tough workout anyway.

Intermediate with 10 strict shoulder press (45# DBs) subbed for HSPU:

4 rounds for time:

10 SP

20 DL (135# using hex bar - no barbell access)

30 Situps

40 DUs

No rest between rounds so I didn't pay attention to time for each. All reps unbroken.

As rx’d, 4:38 / 4:42 / 4:42 / 5:23 / 5:47.


Wheels came off a bit in the 4th round.  Dubs were not great to begin with, but got even worse – likely from all the midline work (deads and sit-ups) – in later rounds.  HSPU unbroken until round 5 (15-5).  Broke deads 20-10 all rounds so I wouldn’t blow up.  Sit-ups mostly unbroken – a mini-rest here and there – but slowish.

I get so out of breath doing DUBs. Are there any suggestions on how to breathe?

Janine - I think the key is finding a nice consistent pace and sticking to it. Think jogging vs sprinting. Try to be as efficient as you can with the jumps i.e. dont jump too high and expend more energy than needed.

I agree with everything Steve says, finding a consistent rhythm/tempo is way more important than speed. I'll never be an expert but have put a lot of focus on DUs lately and have found that slower is better - it helps me with breathing, less shoulder/arm fatigue and messing up a little less.

I have found breathing in on even and out on odd reps helps me keep going. It’s a bit fast but then I can take long slow breaths between sets. Also helps me keep count… Hope this helps!

And at other times, practice basic diaphragmatic breathing in a supine/face-up position to really expand your lungs sideways when you are relaxed, and it can get a bit easier when you are upright and working hard.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Handstand push-up - changing orientation with an exaggeration on pushing with skill (core-to-extremity)

Deadlift - squatting with a light weight, extra emphasis on midline

Sit-up - changing orientation in space with an exaggeration on pulling from the hips

Double under - elastic jumping, surprisingly challenged by midline fatigue, with an emphasis on accuracy


MAIN DECISION

Do I want to keep the integrity of the movements or the integrity of the intensity stimulus?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

As close to as rx'd as possible (maybe decrease hspu), and rest as needed, go at about 60% speed


CONSISTENCY SCALE

Do each movement unbroken, and only count set if it's unbroken, short rest between movements, no rest between rounds


INTENSITY SCALE

Sub push-ups or dumbbell shoulder press for hspu, singles for double under, cut ROM on sit-ups if needed, but prioritize everything unbroken. Do not pace; if your time suffers in later rounds, so be it.


MY STUFF

I ended up doing it without the rest after the second round because I was not feeling like hitting the intensity prescribed. Also subbed 25# dumbbell press and pike push-ups for hspu. 23:something, I forgot exactly. Would have been under 23, except I was stuck at 47 on my last du set for like 30 seconds. Humbling for sure.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 8

Quite a jump from 10 handstand push-ups to 20 knee push-ups. Might I suggest 20 DB shoulder presses? At least keep the movement patterns similar.

January 4th, 2021 at 1:29 am

I’d go with DB press as well. I like doing DB push press for my athletes when it’s regular HSPU and then L-seated DB press for strict HSPU

You gotta think, this is global scaling, someone just getting into CrossFit, perhaps their first workout. Beginner should actually be for beginners. You are welcome to make it harder for yourself if you are somewhere between beginner and intermediate.
