Hello, My name is Faith am from USA ..... and I am very happy for posting on this blog on how a great spell caster helped me bring back the love of my life. I know there are lots of women like me out there who have done so much just to have back their Husband, I am here to tell you all to search no further because the answer is right here. I sincerely believe if there are up to five spell casters like DOCTOR WTAHA this world would be a better place, I contacted him and shared my problems to him and he gave me the terms and conditions, which I obeyed, it only took 3 days for my husband to come back home begging for my forgiveness. To cut the long story short. I am now living happily with my husband. Thanks to Dr TWAHA . Contact him now on email: drlregbeyen10000@gmail.com . Or reach him on whats app +2349038518881 or call him . He can save your marriage or relationships too.

Felt really strong today, and a friend really helped improve my l-sit. Starting my l-sit in a tight tuck, getting my knees as high as I can, then extending my legs slowly I was able to get my heels above my hip crease by a lot. My scales are improving slowly, the hamstring stretch feeling is still a more limiting factor than strength.

It's basically stand tall and raise your arms to the sides. Then raise your foot as high as you can and hold it. Alternate feet. You can find a video on the crossfit website.

Intended Stimulus
Fun with the barbell, fun with gymnastics. Today let's go as heavy as possible with the power clean while committing to staying true to the nature of the movement: opening and closing the hips fast. If you find yourself "starfishing" the feet, you are too heavy, so deload a little and focus on coming under the bar more. For a clean to be power we just need the crease of the hips above the knee; you still have plenty of room to go under the bar.
For the L-sit try a different version from last week, so if you did rings, try using the pull up bar this time. For all holds, accumulate as much time as possible with a solid position. Whichever shape you are practicing, own it!
Option for cleans
Athletes new to the power clean can do the following. Eperienced athletes can use this as warm up.
EMOM for 5 (very light)
3 high hang clean hig pull + 3 front squats
then
EMOM for 4 (light)
2 high hang power cleans + 2 hang power cleans
then
EMOM for 3 (light to moderate)
1 segement clean deadlift + 1 power clean
Option for L-Sits
Option 1
EMOM for 10
15-20 seconds l-sit hold
Bend knees as needed. Aim to last 1-2 seconds longer than last week, if you did 190314.
Option 2
EMOM for 10
20 seconds support hold + 5-7 V-ups
Aim to last 1-2 seconds longer than last week, if you did 190314.
Option for Scales
Option 1
4 Sets
0:45 Front Scale
1:15 Back Scale
Rest 0:30
Option 2
4 Sets
0:30 front scale with tucked leg
1:00 back scale not fully parallel
Rest 1:00

POWER CLEANS: I will have most of my athletes attempt this workout as prescribed, as long as sound mechanics are maintained. Most of my experienced athletes will be coached to achieve near-max loads on the second set of 3 reps and the final set of 1 rep. I may use percentage recommendations, as a general guideline, for some of my experienced athletes. For example:
Set 1 @ ~75-80%
Set 2 @ ~80-85%
Set 3 @ ~85-90%
Set 4 @ ~90-95%
Set 5 @ ~92.5-97.5%
Set 6 @ ~95-100%+
Again, these are general guidelines. Final loads for each set will be determined based upon the execution of the previous set.
For less experienced athletes, I will manage the loads so that there is always a few reps left in the tank. It might also be beneficial to have them continue to perform sets of 3 reps instead of the 1-rep sets. The reason for this rep adjustment is that I may have some athletes not skilled enough, or strong enough, to reap the benefits from 1-rep attempts. They may benefit more from more volume at a lighter load.
For athletes that cannot maintain a safe position when pulling loads from the floor, I will consider having them perform the lifts from the hang position.
“Touch-and-go” reps will not be prescribed, today. I will allow athletes to perform the sets of 5 and 3 reps as singles, but will give a timeframe for the reps to be completed within. For example, the set of 5 reps should be done in under 25 seconds.
L-SITS AND SCALES- My athletes will continue to build from their prior efforts with all 3 of these movements. For example, if an athlete has been working on tuck L-sits, I will have them either attempt this same variation for a longer hold or progress to an L-sit with one leg extended. For progressing the scales, this could simply be done by not utilizing a support beam for balance or attempting to raise the lifted leg to a higher position while maintaining sound mechanics. For more details on each movement, feel free to look back at my posts from Monday, 190311, for the L-sit, and Wednesday, 190306, for the scales.

Globo scale... As Rxed. If using iron plates, go to a heavy single on the 1's, and touch and go the 5's and 3's. If without a barbell do dumbbell low hang power cleans. Go up the db rack until you can't do a good form single, or do max sets with the heaviest available dumbbells if the dbs available are below your max.
For the l-sits, you can do these on rings, 2 boxes, 2 benches, a chair with handles, paralletes, a bar dip station, or hanging from a pullup bar or rings.

Champions Club Scaling Notes
STIMULUS:
One of the most important things to understand in CrossFit is that a back squat is a squat, a kettlebell swing is a squat, a push press is a squat, a defensive slide is a squat, and throwing a shot put is a squat. In my experience, full cleans look better than power cleans because athletes tend to keep the integrity of the squat better in the former than the latter. For most athletes, I would not worry about specifying between a power and squat clean. Just clean and land in a squat — however low that squat takes you. This workout is all about challenging your jumping and landing mechanics… which is… you guessed it… another expression of squatting. Do as many reps or whatever weight is needed to make sure your butt is back, arches are intact, and spine stays braced.
GROUP:
Time caps have been going well for me on max effort days recently and I’ll probably stick with it here. Athletes with lighter weights will be able to do more reps in the, say, 1 minute time cap, and peeps with heavier weights will be able to rest more. Yeah… I’ll stick with that. And I don’t want to mix these in a workout today because spending the entire session on cleans will move the needle quite a bit for most people. Then maybe do the scales and L-sits between sets.
WARMUP:
Jump rope — always
Box jump — prep for landing position
Squat — more prep for landing
Kipping pull-up — stay fresh
Push-up (reverse grip) - prep the wrists
KEY MATCHUP: going lower on the heavier weights vs. landing in a middle split (just go lower!)
SCALING THIS WELL WILL CAUSE ME TO: feel like I need a rest between sets
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL (1=REST DAY, 10=PR-DRIVEN FGB): 2. Not a metcon. Not a squat clean. Not more than 5 reps. I’m okay with this one!
GENERAL EMASCULATING LEVEL (1=WHO DOES RING HSPU ANYWAY?, 10=THIS TEENAGE GIRL IS DEADLIFTING MORE THAN ME): 3. Should be fine, especially is doing lots of reps at a lighter weight.
