7R in 20m

5 box hspu

10 alt pistols with overhead band support. Last round was 20 regular squats as left knee playing up.

15 horizontal rows with rings at shallow angle.

Prev. 6R+6r as strict as possible. All kipping HSPU. Mostly strict pull ups. 23.10.19

I've noticed the years stacking up this last couple of years. Also playing safer than I used to so accumulating fewer injuries.

Cindy: 17+8 rx’d. Strict pull-ups the first 5-7 rounds (minimal kip last couple reps of 6 and 7). Pushups were the limiting factor here, not cardio. That’s a first! Pushups are always tough on Cindy but I feel like normally I wouldn’t go faster anyway. PR for my post bike accident CrossFit journey! 15 lbs lighter than the last attempt! 5lbs for quitting beer, 5 lbs creatine water retention, and lost another 5lbs. after cutting out the 3-6 vodka-sodas I was having daily. Definitely the best I can remember feeling on a Cindy effort!

As rx’d, 13 rounds + 3 HSPU (PR).


First ‘Mary’ in 9 years.  Pacing was for 90 sec per round.  Was able to get ahead of pace initially, with 3 rounds in 4 minutes.  Later on, the only question was whether my hands would hold up.  I had some hot spots start in round 10, but was able to adjust pull-up grip and work through.  Unbroken HSPU and pistols.  Broke pull-ups 10-5 most of the way.  Had to break more often after the hot spots.  PR by almost a full round.

I was looking at the compare to and on 190527 there is a link to the Kipping Pull-up video. I also noticed former CEO GG had commented "If you cannot do five consecutive strict muscle-ups, learning to kip is counterproductive. As an historical aside, I'd deemphasize the kipping pull-up were we to do things again." And also "I am not a fan of the "kipping" HSPU! "


I prefer to do strict movements and thought this was interesting. I understand how kipping/butterfly pull-ups increase your speed/productivity, especially if you are a games athlete, but for the rest of us seems unnecessary.


Thoughts?

I believe they have their place as using the kip allows for more pull-ups- I.e. more work.


I believe it becomes dangerous when shoulders are not strong enough or too fatigued to handle the lowering portion of the movement well.


the announcers commented on this during the final even of the 2020 games this year and explain it better than I can.

I like both kipping and strict. For conditioning work, kipping allows me to keep moving and it also engages more muscle groups as well as skill/coordination. For strength and endurance work, strict seems healthier (in terms of less wear and tear) for my aging shoulders. In terms of functionality, I see kipping as a way to use core-to-extremity to do work I can't do strict, similar to a push-jerk vs. a strict press.

Previous PR was 23rds, so big jump. PU’s stayed strict until round 10, then started wiggling on some reps after that. Wish I could say I went unbroken all rounds but pull-ups are still a weakness for me.

10 Pistols, with TRX support

15 Pull ups, kipped


7 rounds + 17 reps


Hoping 9-10 rds, expected 8, but came up short!


Mary hits my weaknesses. I'm only learning to kip HSPUs; and 15 straight PUs is a lot for me. Pistols: I need a scale between TRX (too easy) and full (too hard on my bum knee). Any ideas? Maybe descend from bench.

Steve Day
October 30th, 2020 at 5:07 pm

Michael, I'm not sure how you are using the TRX but I used to always have something to hold onto for balance or if I got stuck at the bottom of the pistol. Sometime I would just hook a pinkie around a ring to help stabilize. Or I would do them in a doorway so I could grab the jamb if needed to help myself up. I've also done them where you put your opposite leg behind you and keep your big toe on the ground to assist you.


Hope that helps.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT

Give us a dose of the final CF Games event without murdering 3/4 of the CrossFit population


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Regardless of the workout, we are doing pushing, pulling, and squatting in ways that give us enough stamina discomfort for it to suck, but not enough to warrant stopping without feeling like a pansy


TECHNIQUE SCALE

Mary for 30 minutes. Sub half-ROM kipping pull-ups for regular ones so you can get a feel for the rhythm


CONSISTENCY SCALE

Candy or Maggie instead, not quite at full speed (I think we did them back around Easter.)


INTENSITY SCALE

Cindy and scale the push-ups so something you wouldn't have to break until round 20 or so. Find a compare-to for it if you are really in a mood to make yourself miserable.


MY STUFF

Mary for Quality - freestanding HSPU, pistols on the parking block outside, strict pull-ups. Either 5 or 6 rounds in 23ish minutes.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: You will either be in for the longest 20 minutes of your lift or the shortest 20 minutes of your life. So a 9 or a 6.
