18:39 @15kg in 42oC sunshine on a dry local football pitch. The backpack was long and I'm not flexible so it was touching the back of my neck or shoulder. Tried to transfer the weight off by extending arm as much as possible and leaning further back. I usually use a 12kg dumbbell and it felt about the same.

22:55 with a 50lb kettlebell alternating arms each round. Actually ran the runs this time but I had to rest before each. Rested more near the end to catch my breath a little but all OHS unbroken and they got faster as I went! Also I did this facing downhill on my driveway to make up for not wearing lifters.


That was harder than the recent 5k Run/walk I did.

M/ 46/ 136 lbs/ 5’-6”

I used 45 lb DB

early long run with Lucy (dog) in Woods.

Evening workout outside after my son’s band online concert. 

10 rounds of:

10 DB OHD Squat 

Run 200 m

odd rounds left arm even rounds right arm. Did a bunch of warm up OHS in garage first. Left side felt weak. Glad I warmed up. Went with 45 and glad I did. That was a good weight to use, go unbroken and move at a decent pace on all sets.

Ran down block 100 m & back

Completed WOD in about 14:20.  Great workout. Lots of fun and nice to be outside in cool air.

Left side weaker than right. I stopped clock for a few seconds after first round to get music back on. 

Tried to keep good ROM and push running pace. 

I was pretty even pace throughout.

Took a lot of warmup and mobility to see if I could safely hit this position, but actually felt pretty good during the WOD.  I couldn't move fast enough to make this all that spicy.  Runs were about 1 min - slow, but that's my pace right now. Unbroken but deliberate OHS, switched arms each round.

My adaptive teleGRIT classes had a pretty successful run with our at-home battle rope substitutions, and we're going to use that again for the seated version of this workout.


10 rounds for time:

200 m erg / 10 burpees / 100 "battle ropes"

10 dumbbell overhead squats / 10 dumbbell windmills


I haven't talked anyone into taking the telefitness outside yet, but I predict that I'll have people walking on treadmills (or laps around the room), arm cycling, and battle roping with whatever they can find. (Our best battle rope sub yesterday was a couple empty detergent jugs with a couple inches of water in them. The sloshing at the end range really kicked things up a notch!)


The dumbbell windmills (or unweighted, most likely) will probably be the most popular option for the second movement, for both standing and seated athletes. I only have one teleclient who might have the capacity for the DB overhead squat, but I want to leave it as the prescribed option so they have something to work towards, as I think several of them can get there with time and practice.



I almost always use some version of Bryan's warm-ups, with movements adapted for my athletes' specific needs.


For this one, we'll do:


GENERAL WARM-UP


2 rounds of:

20 mountain climbers / seated plank shoulder taps

10 alternating toe touches

20 "Matt Chans" - internal/external shoulder rotation

10 air squats / dips

100 m erg / 5 burpees / 50 "battle ropes"


SPECIFIC WARM-UP


Dumbbell overhead squat

10 tempo squats / tempo windmills (no weight)

10 goblet squats / 10 chest press

5 dumbbell deadlifts, per arm

5 dumbbell presses, per arm

2 sets of 5 overhead squats / windmills (maybe try adding weight?)


Practice

200-m erg / 10 burpees / 100 "battle ropes"

4 overhead squats / windmills

10 rounds for time of:

200-m run: I am not supposed to run, but didn't want to just walk either, so I split the difference, run 100m/walk 100m, with crazy doggo.

10 dumbbell overhead squats: I'm not supposed to lock out my joints, so I didn't think OHS would be a good idea, and I didn't want to run back and forth to use weights, so I did air squats.


I figured it's been a while since I've exercised, so starting slow would be okay.

I loved this article and can relate to it. I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 25 years old. Being a collegiate and continued to be semi active I could not get my seizures under control, I was having at least one to two a day while being on medicine and trying all types of exercise routines. It wasn't until I started Crossfit when I was 38 years old that my seizures have stopped completely. I thank crossfit everyday!!!

Did double dumbbells. Is it me or if HQ meant to do single, they would've said single? Or should we have taken it simply by the singular vs. the plural? Not that it really matters - 12lb dumbbell(s) OHS are intense for me 3 shoulder surgeries later.

This is a simple and spicy combo. The run is relative short, the reps per round are low, and the weight should allow for unbroken sets. All of these factors encourage a fast pace. I expect faster times to be under 13-15 minutes. Here are some scaling thoughts:


Dumbbell Overhead Squats: Honestly, at first glance, I thought this was intended to be a double-dumbbell overhead squat as the last time a single-arm overhead squat was programmed, it was designated as such. If for some reason the single-arm version is too easy or you only have light dumbbells, then consider the double arm version…..its is crazy hard! The single-arm overhead squat is a very difficult movement to perform due to the technical complexity as well as the flexibility demands. I will have athletes use a load that is challenging but allows them to all rounds unbroken. For those that cannot achieve change of motion due to the demand of the movement, I will have them squat to a target or elevate their heels to allow for an easier execution of the movement. The last option I will provided will be to perform a single-arm dumbbell overhead reverse lunge as this tends to be a bit easier to perform than a single-arm dumbbell overhead squat. 


Run: Consider reducing the rounds or distance per round if the overall volume accumulated it too much for an individuals current capacity. 


Limited Equipment Modifications- If unable to run outside consider performing 100 high-knee single unders with a jump rope or run in place at a hard effort for 45-60 seconds. If no dumbbells are available, grab any object and overhead squat it. It is recommended to have an object that is stable and tightly packed vs an object filled with liquid that is harder to control.

Commented on: Hip and Shoulder Rise in the Deadlift

Very good tutorial. I have seen others where the coach uses a pvc pipe to show the vertical part of the bar. Others referring to the need to start the movement with the legs keeping the back on the same angle and then start changing the angle of the back when the bar passes the knees.

This tutorial takes away all the coordination and thinking process from the above options and makes it simple.

Thank you very much for this tips.

▶ INTENDED STIMULUS

.

If you love Nancy, you will love this workout. Nothing should stop you today. This is a ~15-minute effort in which you should never stop. Slow the pace on the run, if you need to, but there is not stopping, no chalk, no rest, just move. The dumbbell overhead squat does require mobility. That's why it is programmed, so let's prioritize that. Remember the one of the mains CrossFit principles is: mechanics before intensity. In weightlifting load is intensity. So today pick the load that will allow you to do single arm overhead squats best. Maybe that is just water bottle. Maybe that is the 50-lb dumbbell. It does not matter, choose the load you can and that will allow you to go unbroken for the 10 rounds. Keep in mind that you can choose how to spread the reps between sides today. If no access to a dumbbell a backpack will be great for this workout. For the run choose a distance you can complete in around 1 minute consistently. As we said, in this workout there is no stopping, from the dumbbell to the dumbbell.

16:34. Lost count so did 11 rds just to be sure. Great workout! Just don’t have pizza and Bloody Marys beforehand next time! Really good engagement in back and posterior chain. Backpack was around 35 lbs probably.

This workout looks open, so your choice. However I understand it as just one. Usually when is two it will specify it. Two dumbbells overhead is super challenging, so unless you have practice stay with one for this one.

Globo/Home scale: If you can't run, sub in 250m row, 12 cal assault bike, 500m bike erg, or 10 burpees per round. For OHS, scale as necessary, using what you have. If you have to scale to a soup can or milk jug, or even squatting to full depth while holding you hand at press lockout, that is acceptable.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Oh the possibilities with this one!


MAIN DECISION

Preserve the overheaded-ness of the squats, or the weight


NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE

As is, just one-arm dumbbell front squat both-armed dumbbell front squats instead of OHS


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Run - short, fast, could also serve as a rest for squats if you wanted to

Squatting - off-axis, unilateral loading, torso upright demands, low number/heavy weight


WHAT ABOUT THE REPS/TIME

Short sets of each keeps intensity high, 10 rounds makes muscles burn by the end in a way that 5 rounds wouldn't. Sounds obvious, but you know...


LEARNING HOW TO COOK

Decide if you have the equipment, form, and flexibility to do the OHS like this. Otherwise you could do: overhead lunges, one-arm dumbbell front squat, 2-arm dumbbell front squat, or holding two 5-lb. plates overhead squat. Even think of it as 2000m run/100 ohs - split up the reps however you want.


I DON'T WANT TO COOK, JUST GIVE ME FOOD

New to CrossFit scale
