I broke it up as 2mup+6wbx2+ 8 calorie recovery row. This still was all wind limited until the final couple rows where my legs turned to lead. Was able to string together 2 muscleups easily the whole time, some with false grip and some without. Still ripped a little on both wrists.

Last time was eight muscle-ups from finishing. Wanted to make muscle-ups the focus this time. Started with 12 rounds of 2 muscle-ups and 10 wall balls. Completed that in around 11:40, then spent the next six minutes completing remaining 16 muscle-ups. Finished with 41 calorie row in final two minutes. In all, 39 calories from finishing.

Muscle ups are a weakness for me, so I used this to practice strict ring muscle ups from seated. 20:00 time cap, did 3 sets of 8-16-24 plus 6 MUs and 10 sprinted cals on the bike.

I forgot what time I got in the Open. I know my fitness was better back then (I think I went sub-14 min). I scaled back then because I can't do muscle-ups yet.
Today, still can't do muscle-ups, scaled again with strict pull-ups - 16'26"

27/40 muscle-ups – all singles. Came into today not really wanting to do this workout. Last time’s score was good (for me – 225), and did not think I had the motivation to push harder today. Broke this up a little differently – with rounds of 10/5/15 of row, MU, wall ball. After 4 rounds, muscle-ups were getting slower so I switched to 10/1/15 and got through another 3 rounds. Then did the last 10 cals of row and had about 90 seconds left. Figured it would be easier to push through wall balls at the end, so got 3 more MUs (for 26), did the last wall balls and had enough time to squeeze out 1 more MU. Surprise PRs are the best.
47m/5'10"180
Nice work! Interesting to hear how you adjusted along the way. I spent time engineering my best guest last year and it went pretty well so I just stuck with that plan again this time (minimizing rest time on the MU being the main goal).

I was about to say "sweet! , thank you". Maybe copying Elaine from Seinfeld show would be better, in that I will just go ahead and create a better expression. So here it goes: Salty! Thank you!.
Maggie was one of three L1 instructors in Sao Paulo, Brazil, where I took the seminar back in feb 2011. How to forget her, Chuck and Jenni?!

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
Just heard Gary Danielson use a quote that said, "Don't rush your adjustments." He was talking about how Georgia was going away from their running game too soon, but I think it applies to a lot of coaching scenarios and settings. I need to store that one away.
WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS
Muscle-up - clearing an unstable obstacle using your entire body, but an emphasis on pulling and pushing
Row - a monostructural movement that I'm honestly not sure about how to convert so we'll just do an 800m run
Wallball - squatting and pushing with an odd object and an accuracy factor
WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT
Part of a big test of fitness that is also looking for strategy to play a part in the thing
TECHNIQUE SCALE
AMRAP in 20 minutes of:
5 banded muscle-ups (check Carl Paoli's stuff)
100-meter run
15 wallballs
CONSISTENCY SCALE
Straight through without dividing up the reps, make it strict muscle-ups and scale the wallball weight so it's unbroken
INTENSITY SCALE
Find a partner and race all 3 things (maybe scale the muscle-ups to burpees if you can't do them.) Count your wins-losses. So race your partner in 40 burpees. Then rest as needed. Race your partner in a row/run. Rest. Race your partner in 120 wallballs.
MY STUFF
16:35. Scaled to 20 muscle-ups, 800m run, 14-lb. med ball. Straight through, did not divide. Good College Football Saturday workout.
