17:13 - Rx (broke the first round of pull-up into 10s. All else unbroken and paced. 1k was about 1:57 500m pace, 750m was at a 2:03 500m pace, and the 500m was done in about 2:00. Right knee is bothering me, mostly the squat only. Kinda just popped up during the day and hasn't gone away.)

This was nasty. Sluggish and sleep-deprived, had to take my time.

First rounds of SDLHP and thrusters broken into 3/4 sets.

5 km easy run in the early morning.

Subbed 900M, 600M, and 500M runs for rows

For thrusters, I did 25 1 arm thrusters w/25 lb dumbbell, then 25 squats with 95lbs; round 2 14 and 11, round 3 10 and 5

Pullups - round 1 - 8 unassisted strict pullups, then 22 weight assisted; round 2 - 6 and 9, round 3 - 9 weight assisted.

First unassisted pullups in about a year. They hurt a little, but not too bad - and shoulder not feeling bad after workout - ( - :

Took over 40 minutes, but had to load and unload every round, and pullups not close to anything else.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Just a reminder on most rowing workout I'm guessing because we don't have a rower.


WORKOUT THEMES

Medium duration and light weight. Using endurance (rowing, in this case) to make two skilled movements more miserable. Pulling and pushing with skill (core-to-extremity) are also themes.


MAIN DECISION

Do I want to simplify the rep scheme or keep it the same?


TECHNIQUE SCALE

3 rounds

Run 800 meters

35 thrusters

20 pull-ups


CONSISTENCY SCALE

3 rounds of:

Run 800 meters

20 thrusters (pause on bottom and top)

20 strict ring rows


INTENSITY SCALE

3 rounds of:

Run 800 meters

35 thrusters

20 pull-ups

*rest as needed between efforts


INJURY SCALE

Upper-body - Consistency Scale, one-arm for both

Lower-body - AMRAP in 15 minutes of: 5 kipping handstand push-ups, 5 strict pull-ups


MY STUFF

I tested out another variation of the Christmas Workout, this one being a Ice On The Sidewalk version.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 7
