Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WORKOUT THEMES

A sneaky way to hide some conditioning into a max effort (or heavy) day. You have two movements that don't really have much of an effect on the other, one pushing with skill (core-to-extremity in the thruster) and the other pulling with the least amount of moving parts possible.


MAIN DECISION

For quality Fran or actual Fran?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

5 rounds of:

21 thrusters (light weight)

21 kips


CONSISTENCY SCALE

As close to rx as possible on weight, do sets of 3 at a time for each movement. AMRAP in 15 minutes maybe?


INTENSITY SCALE

Fran - sub burpees for pull-ups and practice strict pull-ups in the warmup


INJURY SCALE

Upper- or lower-body - pick a 15-minute AMRAP with two movements that are either 1) heavier than usual or 2) more range of motion that usual. Stick to the theme of a max effort day with some hidden heavy breathing in it.


MY STUFF

Consistency scale.

As rx’d, 8:01 (PR).


Had to really move to get in with a 20-second PR.  Considered trying to go unbroken on the thrusters initially but I was getting close to redline by 10.  Broke 10-5 / 8-4 / 6-3.  Broke weighted pull-ups the same – used 40# weight vest with a 5# plate strung through it.  This one hurt like Fran – only twice as long!  Had me staggering around the house for awhile after. First Heavy Fran in 10 years.

DB Thrusters | 2x 12,5 kg DB

Jumping pull-ups

SCORE: 7'52''


/ 5' break /


15-12-9 reps for time of:

DB Thrusters | 2x 12,5 kg DB

Horizontal rows, elevated feet

SCORE: 9'10''

Felt good after 1st WOD, decided to do one more, as I really needed to move.

Even in this scaled / modified form, pretty intense.

Meh, wasn't really feeling it today, so I scaled the thrusters more than I probably needed to and didn't 'go to that place' as Chris would put it.

Pull-ups were definitely the slower part: thruster rounds were all in 2 sets, pull-ups took 3 or 4.

RXd ish. My weighted vest only went up to 40lbs. Pull ups were more challenging but the theusters weren't much easier, both those loads are heavy for me but wanted to give it a go.
