As rx’d, 21:50. 


Turn up the suck baby.  That’s a lot of dubs, but they went okay.  Got some big chunks of 20-30+, but also had a bunch of trips each round.  Happy to get through them.  Snatches were more taxing than expected; normally these are programmed as alternating, which is annoying but also gives me built in rest since I don’t transfer the DB in mid-air.  I did sets of 10 with each arm to start and then sets of 5 near the end.  Pull-ups were pretty grippy after the snatches – did them 15-10 / 10-10-5 / 10-5-5-5.

low back was really tight today after the cleans and squats from the last two workouts. Had to do about 30 minutes of yoga for mobility, and warm up to feel decent. This is what I get for slacking off in December.

I wanted to try this as close to RXd as possible, and thought if I reduced DU to 50 reps I could keep it to 2min per round. not the case the 2nd and last round, couldn't string together much of everything. 150 DB snatches are no joke. my grip still hurts.

Commented on: “What Is CrossFit?” Part 7: Heart Rate

I think isn't a good idea to link heart and modernity.

The heart have several millions years, it's the most important organ of the human body. I think we can't describe him with her react to the modern lifestyle (under 300 year for the car)..

Futher i think it's necessary to listen the heart to match with him, if your heart rate when you sit at your computer are the same that on a Cindy we have a disconnect between heart and reality.

Commented on: “What Is CrossFit?” Part 7: Heart Rate

Chuck is so well spoken and I could listen to him all day. But, I think the question deserves a deeper exploration. Heart rate can be a good measure of intensity during physical exertion even though it is susceptible to other factors that Chuck mentioned like caffeine, adrenaline, etc. There is an ideal heart rate, or range, that allows for extended peak performance as opposed to failure. And, that varies per person based on a variety of factors. But, an awareness of that ideal training zone and seeking to improve upon it over time could certainly prove to be a great measurement tool.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

So this morning I was going through the scaling stuff for our college kids on the back squat/hspu workout, and I asked them where they thought that workout would fall under. Danielle said medium weight and long duration, Cecilia said medium/medium, the rest of them said something similar, except Owen, who said short duration was possible. I agreed, saying a CF Games firebreather would be able to do that workout in 8 minutes. Then I scroll on the comments yesterday to see that Charlie freaking Pokorny did that thing in SIX AND A HALF MINUTES! At 53 years old! Did I read that right? What a beast! That is all.


WORKOUT THEMES

Medium weight/medium duration. Maybe short duration. Dumbbell snatches can only go so fast, I suppose. Anyway, you also have jumping with elasticity, jumping with weight and unilateral loading, and core-to-extremity as themes as well.


ASSUMED

Double-unders can be a conditioning piece.


MAIN DECISION

Preserve the movements and lose some intensity, or scale the movements to keep the intensity? I am starting to feel like that's the main decision for a lot of workouts now that I think about it...


TECHNIQUE SCALE

As is, lose the timer.


CONSISTENCY SCALE

All reps have to be unbroken or the set starts over again.


INTENSITY SCALE

Sub plate jumps for double-unders and sub ring rows for pull-ups. (Auto-correct initially switched it to "double-udders," which might have been a bit confusing for the new folks here).


MY STUFF

21:something. Not a great showing, but getting back into the swing of things after about a week of in-season workouts. Dropped to a 35-lb. dumbbell midway through round 2 and that sped things up quite a bit.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 7

Thanks Chris! Squats and HSPU are strengths right now (while turning to today, DU and DB-snatches are not!)

And thanks Jim - I chalk up the improvement at this point to extra work on form and mobility.

You know my man I have really strong feelings on this, just like I did during the uproar with Coach Glassman in 2020. And I go back and forth on whether to rant about it or not, and I usually side with Dave Chappelle (link not w/f safe but... it's Dave Chappelle so it's worth it). My opinion on it probably doesn't have the leverage to change anything, so I'll save it for when I think it does - if that day ever comes.


What I will say, though, is I think it is important for all of us to see this event (and Coach's departure) as part of a natural progression of CrossFit, and not necessarily the end state. Me saying, "the good ol' days are gone" is just as short-sighted as an angry commenter saying a Twitter post will ruin the company; it takes patience from the community - myself, especially - to allow these things time to play out. If Coach's foundations for this movement are strong enough to endure through challenging times (which I believe they are), then it might help to trust in the open-source model: good practices will eventually weed out bad practices. I truly believe this.


I also just realized I said "Steve Job" instead of "Jobs" in yesterday's comment, so I look like an idiot! Went back and edited it.
