13 plus 5 rxd. thought I would get more. 4 rounds at the 5 minute mark....

Unbroken pull/push. Overhand grip. Pushups got hard the last 4 rounds or so. Dropped most of the MB cleans (which are always squat-cleans) to stay at a pace my heart and lungs could handle. Felt pretty smoked at the halfway mark though (cardio).

M/ 46/ 135 lbs/ 5’-6”

As Rx

I completed 16 rounds plus 4 pull ups.

for me it was all about managing and pushing through the Med ball squat cleans. The pull ups and push ups were quick to bang out. I did a LONG workout of body weight reps intense midline workout two nights ago. 1000 rep plus 4 minutes of plank in about 54 minutes.

this was much harder than I thought it would be.

At first I was thinking 20 rounds was feasible but I will have to get a lot fitter to be able to do that.

I felt it in my legs and lungs. Solid workout. Next time I’ll be going for 17 rounds plus.

great workout.

Taped two 5lb plates to a 10lb med ball. It didn't not work... The cleans were more power than squat, unsure if that was wrong because I was able to do about a round per minute which seemed too fast looking through the comments.


19 R + 4 pullups, 8 push-ups, and 1 clean.

Med ball cleans are full squat. But look at it this way: you got a ton more pull ups and push ups out of it!

Thanks Eric that makes sense and would have added some time to each round. Will need to practice the motion more. Weird gripping a ball with plates on the sides, felt like I had Princess Leia's head.


The silver lining you pointed out certainly had its, uh, advantages!

Hadn't hit a main site workout in a while and this one fit the bill for how I was feeling today. Decided against the med ball cleans because I squatted yesterday. I did 20 Mins or 4 Strict PU, 8 Def. Pushups (18" - Didn't do a 24" box because I had to use a bench because I cut my foot and wanted to the padding - long story), 12 KBS 70#. 10 Full rounds at the buzzer.

Complete as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:


4 inverted rows

8 push-ups with feet on a box | 50 cm box

12 DB squat cleans | 2x 7,5 kg DB (tried to mimic the movement pattern of med-ball cleans)


SCORE: 8 rounds


After 6 rounds unbroken, had to take short breaks during cleans... they were surprisingly difficult. Underestimated this one. Well done 👍

Did two more rounds for good measure and called it a day.

M/42/ 1.7m / 75kg


17 rounds with 15kg med ball (30lbs - no 20).


The incentive to keep going when you've already seen the board and know that if you push you can get one more round in is amazing. I can't attest to all of those pull ups being completely strict.

Definitely a new favourite to throw into my arsenal. Thank you,

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Strict pull-up - overhead pulling with as limited moving parts as possible

Box push-up - pushing at midrange with a little more load than usual, also an emphasis on global flexion

Med ball clean - jumping with an odd object, emphasis on range of motion


MAIN DECISION

Do I have the strength/stamina in the midline to keep integrity on push-ups and pull-ups


TECHNIQUE SCALE

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

8 kipping pull-ups

16 med ball cleans

*get a good dose of box push-ups or regular push-ups in the warmup


CONSISTENCY SCALE

5 rounds of:

2:00 strict pull-up practice

2:00 box push-up practice

2:00 med ball clean practice


INTENSITY SCALE

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

4 strict pull-ups

8 clapping push-ups (or just hands leaving the ground)

12 squat jumps


INJURY SCALE

The gist of this workout is a variation of Cindy that emphasizes more strength on the first two movements and more skill on the last one. So pick three movements you can do, working towards the sustainable rep limit of strength ones and a good dose of skilled ones. In the end, stamina would be a factor more than endurance.


MY STUFF

Went for 20 minutes trying some different variations: rope pull-ups, ring pull-ups, clapping push-ups, hands-off push-ups, squat jumps, and med ball cleans with ol' floppy. Went more for quality than speed.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 5
