4:52 as rx’d. Didn’t reset the rower and rowed slower (1000/hr) on 21/15 calories so I could go unbroken on wallballs. Then I went ham on round 3, rowing at nearly 2000cal/hr. Damper low 8. 30lb wallballs don’t make me feel new to wallballs anymore, but they aren’t easy that’s for sure.

I'm sure your comment was in jest, but you'd have to complete Fran with asthma to gain insight into what asthma feels like. The "I'm out of breath but I'll be ok in a few minutes" feeling from a hard workout is different than the "I'm out of breath and there's no reason to think that's going to change because it feels like I'm breathing through a straw and if I panic it's going to get worse" feeling that comes with an asthma attack.

As rx’d, 5:05.


Thought I could get under 5, but with the rower inside and wall ball outside, transitions were too long.  A couple of bad catches led to mini-breaks in the round of 15 wall ball, and then a drop in round 3 also slowed me down.  Paced the first two rows, at about 1200 cal/min for first two rounds (a little behind 1:50 pace).

Tackling later today, but general question re: WBs. Why is the 10' target set in stone? It took a while for 30# to added as an option, but the height has always been the same. From a games or competition perspective, it feels like 11 or 12 or even 15' would be an interesting added challenge that most athletes haven't really trained for. Just musing....

Brett Eckles
January 6th, 2021 at 1:55 pm

I’d recommend to keep the reps the same or go 1.5X if you want to equate # of pulls on the rower to SDHP (1-2 pulls per calorie, typically). Either way the SDHP weight in combination with the rep scheme you choose should be light enough to go unbroken or close to it to maintain the stimulus

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Wallball - squatting with a lot of things added to make it more difficult (loss of connection, odd object, upright torso)

Row - a monostructural movement that can be done at a sprint but will cost a lot


MAIN DECISION

Do I have the technique/experience to make 45 reps a good enough dose?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

3 rounds, 30 reps of each


CONSISTENCY SCALE

For time:

45-calorie row

45 wallballs


INTENSITY SCALE

Sub anything that involves squatting and one other movement you can do fast. Adjust the reps if needed (30-20-10?)


MY STUFF

Used a 20-lb. ball to a higher-than-10 target, subbed burpees (jumping high) for row. 6:55. I redid a few burpees and wall balls for not going high enough.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: Tough to say because I don't have a rower or a 30-lb. ball, but I would guess an 8.
