Workout of the Day

36

For time:

30 strict muscle-ups

Post time to comments.
Compare to 160820.


Scaling:
Reduce the difficulty so that you can perform multiple reps unbroken when fresh, but not necessarily attempting to string sets together for the entire workout. Ideally, comple all reps in 15 minutes or less. All athletes should choose modifications that work both pulling and pushing strength.

Intermediate Option:
Complete as many reps as possible in 15 minutes:
Strict muscle-ups

Beginner Option:
10 rounds for time:
3 ring rows
3 push-ups

As a swim and CrossFit coach, I can wholly endorse the benefits of CrossFit for swimmers. I aspire to get more swimmers / clubs / the sport to buy in to CrossFit for their General Physical Preparedness.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WORKOUT THEMES

Testing upper-body strength by removing the skill component and adding a major stamina factor.


MAIN DECISION

Scale the specifics (upper-body pull/push) or scale the general (clearing an obstacle)?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

Run 200 meters

[insert something on the rings]


CONSISTENCY SCALE

AMRAP in 15 minutes of:

8 strict pull-ups

8 strict dips


INTENSITY SCALE

8 rounds of:

8 burpees

1 rope climb

*rest 1 minute between rounds

**practice muscle-up progressions in warmup


INJURY SCALE

Upper-body - Pick a benchmark running distance you want to test, but do a 1:00 hollow hold and 100 squats and immediately before you start.


MY STUFF

I have a sudden urge to want to do a strict muscle-up without a false grip. So spread over the course of the day I probably did about 50 on low-hanging rings with my toes touching the ground.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 5

Globo scale: if you have rings or the gym has some, go as Rxed or follow the scaling listed. You can also work on progressions for 15 minutes and then work strict false grip pullups and deep ring dips. If no rings are available but a TRX is do 10 rounds 3 strict chest to bar pullups and 3 deep TRX dips. No TRX? Then do 10 rounds of 3 weighted bar dips 15/25lbs dumbbell or dip belt, and 3 strict chest to bar pullups. Unweighted (such as at Planet Fitness or hotel gym with a power tower) go AMRAP 15 3 strict pullups 3 strict dips. If dumbbells are the only things available do AMRAP 15 renegade rows 35/50lbs (pushup on dumbbell, then row right, then row left). Keep a good plank throughout the movement.


Bodyweight/ equipmentless scale: If you do not have rings to hang and a power tower or somewhere to do dips do the AMRAP 15 3 strict pullups/dips option. No dip bar? Do 6-8 hand release pushups per round. Railing only? Do 6-8 bodyweight rows. None of this available? Hang a towel on a sturdy tree branch and do 2-3 towel pullups and 6-8 HRPU per round.
