One of the ways we have come up with to combat redundant routine when approaching SLIPS practice is to make a card deck dedicated to SLIPS. "Deck of Death", "The Card Game", "Card WOD", the idea has been called many things but application is the same: take a deck of playing cards, assign movements, skills, drills, etc., to each of the cards in whatever combination you like, and the result is a real time "hopper" that can be customized to specific facets of fitness or expanded to include every and anything. This has been especially helpful for the people who are having to adapt and find ways to achieve the same stimulus they might get in their regular classes/groups, the game aspect can bring a new and refreshing intensity.

The SLIPS practice will be a nice prep for this lifting session. This workout is strength-focused but will also challenge stamina due to the reps to be completed per set. Don’t hesitate to reduce the loads on the final sets to keep mechanics sound. As with most heavy days, most athletes can attempt this workout as written and use loads that allow for sound mechanics. Normally, I look for heavy sets to be at or above 80-85% of a 1 rep max, however, being that we are doing sets of 10 today I will look for all work sets to be above 65-70% of a 1 rep max. Something I will really focus on will be that athletes can maintain a stable midline throughout each set while achieving the full range of motion. 


Minimal Equipment: As the description suggests, use any loaded object and alter the rep scheme to make each set difficult. You can also alter the tempo of the movement to increase the difficulty. For example, if you only have light dumbbells, performing a 10-second eccentric phase for 10 reps can be very challenge. If you have no implement that will make the movement challenging in the 10 rep range, consider doing a strict handstand push-up variation that is challenging for 10 reps.

I skipped SLIPS instead I did 5x10 Sommersault squats with 8-12-1-20-20kg kettlebells, then I did TGUs with the same weights.

Then I did kettlebell presses:

10 bottom-up presses 8kgs left-right

10 bottom-up presses 12kgs left-right

10 strict presses 16kgs left-right

10 strict presses 20kgs left-right

▶ INTENDED STIMULUS

.

Shoulders are small and tender, yes even yours Tia-Claire. Ten repetitions for these guys is a lot. If these were squats we could grind them, but with a press you have to be more conservative. Form will break apart earlier and the muscular environment will become acidic faster and harder. This is not a workout to go for a max. A good goal would be to find a weight that is challenging for the first round and try to stay consistent across sets. If you have a recent shoulder press 1RM, starting in the low 70's (%) is a good rule of thumb. Beginners with this lift can do this workout as prescribed and focus on slow and controlled movement. The videos in the playlist will help you with points of performance.

For your SLIPS work, try some movements you have not try before and that fit the template. Intentional and well thought variance is the key to good programming. SLIPS let's you take charge of that, that's the beauty of this thing. Below is an option for low rings. 

Today is a fun day to get some good work done. Get as many intentional and productive reps as you can. 


SLIPS - LOW RINGS

3 sets 

10 seconds tuck hold + 10 seconds L-sit*

rest 1:00 between sets


*Keep the hold if no L-sit


3 sets

5-7 rings pike push-ups

rest 1:00 between sets


 3 sets 

10 seconds foot assisted tuck shoulder stand or tuck shoulder stand

rest 1:00 between sets


3 sets

20 seconds per side bottom of an archer push-up hold

rest 1:00 between sets



3 sets

1:00 childs pose on rings, rotate rings externally

rest 1:00 between sets

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about, but 10 rep maxes are no joke.


MAIN DECISION

Do I want to/have the stuff to make this a max effort day?


NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE

AMRAP in 15 minutes of:

10 strict press

:20 L-sit

:30 plank


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Pushing - upright orientation, overhead, external load, connection, strength-based, not skill


WHAT ABOUT THE REP SCHEME

10 reps at a good weight really tiptoes the line between strength and stamina.


LEARN TO COOK

If you have enough weight, this one will be good to go. If you don't, figure out if you have enough for more reps (like 20 or so) or if you need to turn this inso an AMRAP with some of the SLIPS included.

Globo/home Scale: If you have dumbbells, kettlebells, a barbell, ect, go for it. If you max out, do AMRAP sets in place of the 10s, or do 10 left/10 right if all you have is one heavy object or limited adjustable dumbbell plates. If you are regulated to bodyweight, do some sort of strict handstand pushup or modification that allows you to hit at least 10 reps per set. This could be piking off a box or doing high piked pushups, or for elites doing strict deficit HSPU or pause at the bottom strict HSPU.


SLIPS as rxed.
