25 KBSwings (15+10,15+10,15+10)

25 PushUps (15+10,15+10,15+5+5)


Did this as a little conditioning piece at the end of a heavy lower body lift day. Gotta keep bringing back those little 5-10 min conditioning pieces. I think this is where I win the workout for my losing weight goals. Also was like a conjugate workout to heavy BenchPress and HangCleans yesterday. Probs would of really felt it if there was another round with more swings or more weight.


Sheesh, I don't know how I will ever get a hspu. I think I'll get a muscleup first, but neither are close. Was working out at the powerlifting gym and they just bought out a new gym and it's members...so it's been crowded lately. Need to practice pike pushups. College gym open gym starts next week. Can't wait to have box room to myself.

Db are tougher to hold than kb. So I guess I could never do the recommended weight as no kb in my gym.

Today first time atleast starting some sort of handstand pushups.

As rx'd, 11:22.


Tougher than expected, although anything with 75 HSPUs is going to be a challenge.  Wanted to go unbroken on the swings, but had to break 15-10 in rounds 2 and 3.  HSPUs 10-5-5-5 in the first two rounds, then sets of 5 in the last.

Buy-in: 44 cal assault bike, then


27 minute AMRAP

19 DU’s

10 Thrusters 115#

9 pull-ups


Cash-out: 44 cal assault bike

Chris, when I hit a certain advanced age, I adopted it for my annual birthday workout. At first I intended to do the Filthy 50s, then 51s, 52s, etc., but that made comparability difficult, so I opted to stay with the Filthy 50s. Now that I’m in my 60s I should pick something else, mostly b/c 500 reps of anything smokes me now, but thus far have not.


And…Happy Birthday!

Jim, I like that idea of doing the Filthy 50 and upping the reps every year. Yeah, over 600 reps would be a whole lot!


Thank you, both Jim and Annie, for the birthday wishes!

I only sheepishly claim a 5# weighted movement, b/c that’s pretty wimpy. Shoulda used 10#, even though dips are not a good sub for HSPU or any overhead movement.

Did our Bulletproof workout instead today.


Squad Resupply

.5 mile run to the field with 2 rucks (25 and 35# alice frames), 2 weight vests (20# each), and 2 ammo cans (~35# each)

50yd of tire flips: 3 flips per turn, one tire at a time, everyone else has to be doing pushups, planks, squats, or lunges while waiting their turn - so kinda shuttle style.

400m Casualty Carry: designated casualty weighed roughly 215#, and everyone took at least one turn fireman carrying him.

.5 mile run back with same gear.


Took us somewhere between 20-25 minutes to complete. Had to keep it short for an early event this morning.

Globo wod: If your globo doesn't allow HSPU sub heavy dumbbell push presses at 60-75% bodyweight total. Sub 55/70lb dumbbell swings for the kettlebell swings if a kettlebell isn't available. Hotel gym (50lb dumbbells) men do 35 dumbbell swings, and 35 strict presses if they don't allow HSPU.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

The big decision here, to me, would be whether you want to preserve the intensity or not. Remember, these workouts always have a target audience, and that target audience is a group of people that could probably do this entire workout unbroken. So if that is not you, either modify the movements so you can get the same heavy breather the target audience would, or turn off the timer and work on these movements with the intent on becoming the target audience one day (or getting closer to their capacity).


WORKOUT THEMES

Gymnastics and weightlifting. High volume. Stamina playing a factor in all but the fittest. Jumping, pushing, overhead, changing orientation


SHORT MEDIUM LONG


LIGHT


MEDIUM

x

HEAVY


STRENGTH SCALE

For quality

75 strict handstand push-ups

75 kb swings

*split up reps however you want


STAMINA SCALE

For quality

75 handstand push-ups

75 kb swings

*do a max set unbroken of one movement, rest, then move to a max set for the next movement. Repeat until reps are finished


NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE

AMRAP in 12 minutes of:

20 kb swings

2:00 handstand practice

*new people be careful with high rep kb swings - lower the number if needed and don't let the back round


MY STUFF

Thanks for the insight, people sometimes forget that there is an option to take it slow and work on those movements instead of worrying about their pride.
