Pretty happy with today! 6 months postpartum and wasn’t sure I’d even be able to hit my old PR. I had very minimal rest between sets as I was pressed for time. I’ll get that new PR next time.

since my hip replacement, I don't DL or squat even remotely heavy

7 sets of 5 at 205 -- this is 20 pounds more than recent workouts. Feel good about that.

Did my usual deadlift program instead (workout 2 out of a 4-week program):
5*60/70/80/90 3*105/120/135(AMRAP set could do only 3)/120 5*100/90/80/70/60kg

Been away for 6 months, happy to be reboarding the fitness train.  Toot toot

190517:
425lbs(PR)
445(PR) - 445lbs
455 - 465(PR) - 475lbs(F)

Today:
495lbs
495 - 495lbs
495 - 495 - 495lbs

I attempted going up but couldn’t break it off the ground, so then I just decided to see how long I could hold on to 495lbs.
I attempted a bent/bent/bent press and I still need a tiny kick assist, but I can’t control speed and reverse directions through the press all the way till the floor.

Champions Club Scaling Notes

RANT
So I've been thinking about how to reformat these notes for a bit now, and the article that goes with today's workout really helped me clear it up. Again, scaling a workout is way more than just do less weight or lower the distance or do less rounds. There's got to be a purpose behind it. Saying a scale for "Eva' is to just do 3 rounds with 20 reps of each at a lighter kb is leaving a ton of opportunity on the table. Trust me, that's how I coached for the first... say... 10(!) years. I still think there's a kind of formula I go through subconsciously that I'd like to share, but I haven't thought about it hard enough to put into words yet. In the meantime, here's another adjustment to the format.

PURPOSE: This wants us to lift at a weight heavy enough to warrant resting a few minutes in between sets. The SLIPS are in there before the lift because we want to see how some added muscular fatigue affects our lifting technique (don't let it!)

TRAINING SCALE (Strength/Endurance/Stamina/Flexibility): strength would be the obvious emphasis here, so go heavy, but doing L-sits and Planks before could make stamina a major factor, also as controlling rest in between sets would make endurance a factor. Breathing and bracing is not easy!

PRCTICE SCALE (Coordination, Accuracy, Agility, Balance): this is where you want to ignore the numbers completely. Once set could be 13 reps, another could be 26 reps, another could be 9. Just lighten the load enough so you can do tons and tons of reps to the point where your brain is more tires than your muscles, and also where a few bad technique reps won't result in an injury

NEW TO CROSSFIT VERSION: do the practice scale

GROUP VERSION: mixed between Practice and Training

INJURY VERSION: Pick one SLIP (not stretching) then train (more so than practice) for 20 minutes. Stretch after.

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 2

Warm up for 191211
GENERAL WARM-UP

1 round of:
20 air squats
25 groiners
30 banded good mornings

2 rounds of:
20-sec. hollow hold with hands overhead
20-sec. plank hold with pointed toes

SPECIFIC WARM-UP

7 deadlifts with an empty barbell, 2-sec pause at the knees in the ascent
5 deadlifts at 50% 1RM, 2-sec pause at the floor between reps

Build-up
3 sets of 5 deadlifts, increasing in load each set:
Set 1: approx. 60% 1RM
Set 2: approx. 70% 1RM
Set 3: approx. 75% 1RM

SLIPS

Handstands
EMOM 12
1-2 descents from a handstand

Stretching
EMOM 8
Minute 1: Band-assisted hamstring stretch, right leg
Minute 2: Band-assisted hamstring stretch, left leg
Minute 3: Banded shoulder distraction, right arm
Minute 4: Banded shoulder distraction, left arm

Globo scale: as rxed. Most globos have the equipment to do this. If you are in a globo that yells about noise set down pads and lift on to those, controlling your descents.  If with only a smith machine do heavy rack pulls in the Smith (not ideal but you work with what you have) and some of the single leg deadlift work below.  If without a barbell do dumbbell single leg deadlifts, building.  If you max out the dumbbells do AMRAP sets.  Double dumbbell Romanian deadlifts are another alternative.   Finally, you can cash out with some sprinting and/or jumping work, especially if you ended up AMRAPing sets with lightish dumbbells.  Use a high incline on a treadmill, do "Treadmill pushes" (high incline with treadmill off, your feet move the belt) or sprint up hills if you have them.   This is also an option if stuck in a hotel gym without dumbbells but has a treadmill.     Slips before the WOD as rxed. 

INTENDED STIMULUS
.
In 191205 we went for max volume on the deadlift and we planked. If you did that day right and gave the planks the love that they deserve, you probably felt what we mean when we say that the deadlift is a core exercise. Today the scenario is very similar, so you will be able to apply whatever you learned from that day. First, attack your SLIPS as if they are the central part of your workout. They are. Make sure you get a solid 20-minutes of work and then move on to your deadlift. Be prepared both your core and your shoulders will be tired from SLIPS. Use this tiredness as feedback, make sure your shoulders are externally rotated and engaged before starting to lift. Make sure your core is engaged before the legs start pushing the ground. Thanks to your work on SLIPS both will be easier to feel. Today is an excellent day to go for a super heavy lift, today we go for max load. However have no expectations with load other than lifting heavy and having fun. Keep adding weight while your mechanics are proper, and stop when they go. Athletes new to the deadlift can use the option below to develop technique.

OPTION for SLIPS
Let's go back to our breathing routine. Today is breath only through your nose SLIPS. This also applies to the rest period. Duct tape your mouth as needed --or use micropore tape as one of our sensible readers wisely suggested. The purpose here is to get you used to nose breathing and to decrease anaerobic fatigue --a.k.a. the burn.  

For twenty minutes, cycle through:

Max Back Scale per leg
Max Front Scale per leg
Max L-sit hold from the floor
Max Gymnastics Plank Hold
Max Handstand Hold
1:00 pigeon per side

On the holds, the set ends when you lose the position or when your hunger for air is too high. Keep your mouth shut during the rest and let your breathing come back to normal before starting the next hold.

OPTION for Deadlifts
5-7 SuperSets
12 Barbell Hinge Wall Taps
10 Banded Good Mornings
8 Banded Deadlifts
rest as needed between supersets
