Way harder than it looks.


Slow and steady on the box jumps with step downs.

Broke KBS into 5's, then did last set unbroken.

20 BoxJumps 24in

25 KBSwings 50Lbs


BoxJumps were higher than my normal 20in but seemed easier than the step-ups for chad1000x prep I've been doing. BoxJumps used to be so intimidating, but these were not bad.


KbSwings seems to be on tap for me alot lately. Think I've done these like 5x in the past 2-3Weeks. Today, back seriously blew up after round 3. Felt like the stamina Scale workout a month ago of 150 KBswings then 1.5MileRun.


In the middle of Chad1000X prep, so this workout felt like a healthy interference.

Rx

BJs were full stand at the top and step downs, so yeah, lots of time soaked up there, but all at a steady pace (no resting at top or bottom). Rnds 1, 3, and 5 were unbroken on KBS (American).

Nice! I always debate whether I should do full stand or not. Speed or burn?

Good job on Rx’d. I gotta step down on most as well…. saves time in the long run in my opinion because I would burn out too quick if I didn’t and waste time shaking out my legs.

15:36 scaled: 20-inch box+ 50# Russian swings


Box jumps - just don't have same explosiveness yet after acl surgery in December.


Kb swings - I have one of those kettlebell attachments for dumbbells and I just don't trust it overhead.

Globo wod: for box jumps, if you don't have a box use a bench or another platform to jump on that is close to the prescribed height. If your globo has those step riser things you can build a box, 10 plus top is 24", 8 plus top is 20". Be careful as these are slightly less stable than a real box. If you don't have a kettlebell today sub dumbbell swings with a 35/50lb dumbbell.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Ouch. Just ouch.


WORKOUT THEMES

Weightlifting and gymnastics blended together with the final product being monostructural. Jumping with weight, jumping with elasticity, rhythm, speed.


SHORT MEDIUM LONG


LIGHT


MEDIUM x


HEAVY


FORMAT/MOVEMENT QUESTIONS

What of the 10 general skills is my limiting factor from making this a medium weight/short duration workout?

Is my technique consistent enough to practice speed today (or actual reps, not workout time)?

Is the extra 9 seconds you'll save on transition worth the extra discomfort that comes with it?

Would it be better to do touch-and-go box jumps or step-downs?

Do I stand up all the way on top of the box and slow the time down, or do I bounce off the box too?


NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE

As is, lower box and do step-downs, go really light on kb swings and barely swing over your belly button just so you can focus on the rhythm. If you get too fatigued to do all 25 in a row, then cut the reps/workout there. High volume kb swings can mess up new people.


MY STUFF

6:00 flat as rx'd. Don't know if I had another second anywhere to spare, unbroken on everything, quick transitions, touch-and-go from box and floor. Went against Chase for this one, he got 6:10.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 8

Thanks you guys, it was right in my wheelhouse. Cost me a lot, though - I was on the ground for a half hour after. Still got the Fran cough.
