19:35 as rx’d as possible (12’ legless from butt off floor, pistols to 12” stack of pads. Muscle snatches switched midair. Took lots of breaks throughout. Had exposure to cat hair and dust yesterday so I was up multiple times last night with asthma...I think I will feel it for a while-as evident by how I felt doing this workout.

Monster mash. No rope, subbed x5 L-sit/strict pull-ups for each climb. Pistols to 14.5" plate stack. 24 kg KB snatch, x30, x20, x14, x10 reps for those only, other reps as RXd.


14:07.


Decided to scale down the reps on the snatches after having to take 2 breaks in the first round to get to x30, adjusted the rest from there. The pull-up sub started as L-sit, ended as strict.

Scaled to

7 slow weight assisted pull-ups per rope climb (anything else is too painful)

pistols to 18”bench

40lb dumbbell left arm snatches, right arm split b/w squat cleans and power cleans

about 42 minutes. Things are not conveniently located at the gym I was at, but even if they had been, I’m sure I still would have been well over 30 minutes.

Swapped for laying to standing on ropes with a pull up at top, same rep scheme. Everything else was Rx... probably should have done more on the rope 🤔

Globo scale: for rope climbs, sub 5 towel pullups per rope climb. If you can't hang a towel sub either 5 one handed pullups with the other hand gripping the wrist, 5 L sit strict pullups, or 10 strict chin ups per rope climb. Pistols sub some sort of one leg squat variation.


Busy gym: Do all reps of the pullup variation first, then the Pistols(or scale/sub) and dumbbell snatches as Rxed.


Bodyweight/equipmentless sub: hang a towel from something sturdy for the towel pullups, or use one of the other subs. For snatches sub 1 "reverse burpee" for every 2 snatches, withoutthehandstand at the end.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WORKOUT THEMES

Medium weight and medium duration. Squatting and jumping with unilateral loading, pulling with more emphasis on strength then skill, also stamina playing a factor but not enough to decrease intensity


MAIN DECISION

Practice day or game day?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

Turn off the timer, as close to prescribed as possible


CONSISTENCY SCALE

As listed, just do all the dumbbell snatches/pistols on one side before moving to the other side, not alternating. Sub strict pull-ups for rope climbs if needed.


INTENSITY SCALE

Sub rope climb with legs and lunges.


INJURY SCALE

Upper-body - 50-40-30-20-10 lunges and dumbbell snatch

Lower-body - 20 minutes practice of: legless rope climb, pistol


MY STUFF

For quality, I almost got a pistol on my left side!


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 5
