10 SumoHighPulls 75lbs

12 ReleasePushUps


Did not want to workout this morning. Really wanted to do some heavy pulls instead of the off sumo high pulls. Interpretation of the weird sumo was accessory/technique work that will somehow payoff later. Sumos were light and all unbroken, don't think 95lbs would have felt much different.


Release PushUps were high volume. I do ReleasePushUps whenever I do burpees. Was hitting fatigue around rep 8 of each set and hit failure around the last few sets. Felt the PushUps in my shoulders more than triceps. This was a quick workout that smoked my pushing arms.


Checked the box and move on.

As rx'd, 8:00.


This was spicy.  Unbroken SDHPs for the first few rounds, then broke at 6 in later rounds.  Unbroken push-ups for the first few rounds, but had to break those later as well.  At

the end, those were the things slowing me down from a stamina perspective.

SDHP and HRP unbroken each time, just too much time spent breathing between rounds. Did 4 sets of 10 Back Squat after: 45-95-125-145#. Meant to do the full WOD from yesterday, but the groin felt really tight so opted for doing just the 4 sets and calling it good for the day. Did SLIPS as part of warmup and cooldown.

I’m new to CrossFit. Everyone goes so fast. I am switching from a high weight low rep regimen so this is a hard wake up to my cardio. I take two min breaks after every movement. Should I just condition faster and faster between sets? How non-stop do you guys who go fast go? Is the ultimate aim to have no break between anything like a giant superset? I’m really into what I’ve been doing here, finding it so practically useful. Eager to grow stronger in a CrossFit way. Thanks for y’all’s help

Start by reducing the time on breaks. You're losing intensity if you break for too long. Breaks MAY be needed in some workouts, but they should always be minimized, and get back to work as quickly as you can. The goal in a timed workout is to finish in the least amount of time. Working like this not only increases strength, it increases capacity - hence the name "metabolic conditioning". If you are at an affiliate, talk with the Coach about how you should be attacking the WOD. If not, pay close attention to the notes with the WOD. For example, today's WOD said you should keep rounds under two minutes. That is with NO rest in between rounds. Welcome to CrossFit!

Scaling is also important. Dont choose a weight (or a speed) that you cant maintain for the entirety of the workout. A general tip: start the workout slower than u think.. then speed up in the final quarter if u still have gas to burn. If u make this your general practice, your metabolic conditioning will build over time. You'll then find you can increase your weights and speed

sounds like you’ve focused on the strength/power part of fitness. Recommend going into the CF archives and read Coach Glassman’s article from the early 2000s “What is Fitness?” The best single piece I’ve ever seen to explain fitness and the why CF does what it does.

Just stick with us. CF humbles everyone, as it forced us all to confront our weaknesses on a routine basis.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


MAIN DECISION

Is my technique good enough on SDHP to have then be a conditioning station in a workout?


SHORT MEDIUM LONG


LIGHT

x

MEDIUM


HEAVY


GARAGE GYM COMPETING AGAINST YOURSELF SCALE

My first thought is each round would take less than a minute, and 1-minute rounds and 2-minute rounds are two completely different workouts, even though it's the same number of reps. So if you got it like that today, pay attention to each round's individual time and if it drops by more than 10 seconds your workout is done.


I'M MISSING INTERNAL ROTATION + EXTENSION IN THE SHOULDERS AND THESE MOVEMENTS HURT BUT I STILL WANT INTENSITY SCALE

8 rounds for time of:

12 kettlebell swings

10 dumbbell push press


NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE

8 rounds for time of:

12 deadlifts

10 push-ups


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 7?

Globo wod: If you are using iron plates today pull the sumo deadlift high pull from mid shin. Dumbbells sub dumbbell SDHP 35/50 lb dumbbells, intermediate 25/40 lb dumbbells, and scaled 15/20 lb dumbbells. Pushups as Rxed.

Steven, just wondering why your dumbbell sub for 95lb barbell SDLHP is 50's? You usually scale the dumbbells lighter given that it's more difficult controlling the two weights vs one.

Agree with Steve Day - would go with 35's as a sub for 95 barbell
