Anyone have some tips or cues for double unders. I’ve tried penguin taps, using the cue “jump wrist wrist. I’m still struggling to learn these

One thing that helped me was to master alternating single-unders and double-unders, i.e., one DU, one SU, one DU, one SU, etc. I would also bend your knees, if necessary, until you get the hang of them, before moving to more efficient posture/movements.

Commented on: The L-Sit on Rings

Hey man Great video. Just curious is there any way to do this exercise on rings assisted. For example with resistance bands or something like that. Iv'e been looking a way to do this for a while. I tried doing the l sit on some cheap dip bars from amazon and I can just about do it. Rings seem a bit to wobbly for me. Whats the next progression for me after Dip bar L sits

Scaled to Intermediate this time.

7 rds even


Environmental conditions were a definite reason to scale today and I still felt it. 95deg + 90% humidity and no air movement - ouch. Had to use the same rings for L-sits as push-ups, so that helped kept me honest about them (time stopped if my heals touched).


Compare to: 200906 Rx'd 5rds + 5s L-sit

I need help. I did the Total this morning and all my numbers are way down. Additionally, my deadlift numbers have been dropping at an alarming rate the last two months (50# loss). I’ve been following the main site programming for a few years. What gives? Why are my strength numbers tanking now?

I have no answer, but I feel like I’m in the same boat as you! I was under in my numbers too, and my deadlifts have been feeling very hard lately as well.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WORKOUT THEMES

Not quite a For Quality day, but two movements that don't come up often and one that involves a lot of accuracy. Pulling from the hips, pushing from the shoulders, loss of connection/open chain, and jumping with elasticity.


MAIN DECISION

Keep the exercises and extend the time domain, or keep the time and scale the movements?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

As listed, extend to 30 minutes or so.


CONSISTENCY SCALE

Scale L-sit however you can get :30 unbroken. Do ring hold in push-up position. Sub short plate jumps for double-unders.


INTENSITY SCALE

Change the double unders to a short sprint, then rest in between rounds.


MY STUFF

5 rounds as rx in 23:46


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 6

I get so out of breath doing DUBs. Are there any suggestions on how to breathe?

Steve Day

Janine - I think the key is finding a nice consistent pace and sticking to it. Think jogging vs sprinting. Try to be as efficient as you can with the jumps i.e. dont jump too high and expend more energy than needed.

I agree with everything Steve says, finding a consistent rhythm/tempo is way more important than speed. I'll never be an expert but have put a lot of focus on DUs lately and have found that slower is better - it helps me with breathing, less shoulder/arm fatigue and messing up a little less.

I have found breathing in on even and out on odd reps helps me keep going. It’s a bit fast but then I can take long slow breaths between sets. Also helps me keep count… Hope this helps!

And at other times, practice basic diaphragmatic breathing in a supine/face-up position to really expand your lungs sideways when you are relaxed, and it can get a bit easier when you are upright and working hard.
