Re did with mix of Rx'd/beginner by replacing v-ups with Abmat sit ups, as the v-ups were not great the first time and I'm not able to do that volume and wanted to get the appropriate stimulus.

The high volume of squats made my flexibility on v-ups kind of wonky, knees didn't lock out perfect on all of them.

Commented on: Purpose of the General Warm-Up
We need a warm-up that will increase body temperature and heart rate, provide some stretching, stimulate the entire body and major biomechanical functions, provide practice for basic movements, and finally, prepare for rigorous athletic training.   

"A Better Warm-up" CrossFit Journal Issue 08 - April 2003

http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/08_03_Better_warmup.pdf


Each warm-up you can ask yourself:

1. Did we increase the heart rate (are folks breathing more heavily)?

2. Did we increase core body temp (did folks get a little sweaty)?

3. Did we move through Full ROM and help increase ROM?

4. Did we practice specific movements in preparation for workout?


Typically I recommend picking:

3-5 movements, holds, or dynamic stretches

5-15 reps

2-3 rounds

That gives a pretty robust structure/framework for a general warm-up.


The last test to pass is asking,

"Is this exactly how I would warm-up for this workout?"

"How would you warm-up?"

"Do you like your own warm-up?"

16:32 rxd, however reviewing my V UP form was not pure, touched my ankles instead of toes.


Completed indoors which was nice few! few pauses for kid requests. Also my youngest tried to get in on the movements which slowed things down, perhaps to my benefit!

As rx'd, 13:42.


V-Ups after squats were surprisingly spicy.  Amazingly, I have not done those in a workout before. Did after heavy deads.

Much harder than it looked , especially after yesterday's squatting, single-leg deadlifting, and biking.

Scaled to 120, 40; 90, 30; 60, 20. Scale was pretty appropriate. Haven't attempted a v-up in years. They weren't great, but not terrible.

10x3 Back Squat @ 185 beforehand


24:47 Rx. How some of you went 15min is incredible. My v-ups need some work, and my child needs to learn that when The Lion King is on, to not drop her toys to make me get them for her. On the flip side, probably saved me some pain in the workout

Tips:

  • keep count on the squats (I believe I did 10 extra reps)
  • do it barefoot. Good for propioception and easier for the V-ups

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WORKOUT THEMES

Light weight and short duration. Squatting with speed and a stamina factor, midline stability with a balance factor are also themes.


MAIN DECISION

So I have the stamina (Kanye) to make this a short-duration workout?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

AMRAP in 15 minutes of:

40 squats

20 hollow rocks


CONSISTENCY SCALE

Unbroken on everything or else workout is done. Rest as needed between exercises


INTENSITY SCALE

Make speed the priority; sprint the squats and rest if the pace slows down. Same with V-ups. Maybe even make them GHD sit-ups or toes to bar. Lose the timer.


INJURY SCALE

Lower-body - sub hip extension for squat. Probably bot 150, 120, and 90 though


MY STUFF

Intensity scale, but I went really slow on the v-ups to work on the balance.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 5

My "v-ups" did not look exactly like the ones in the instructional video. I accepted straight knees + legs up at least 30-deg (mostly >45) + shin-tap.
