9:03 as rx’d...no food or warmup...painful especially on the feet. Jumprope warmup would’ve been perfect.

As Rx: I did this one quickly, with some warm up in the garage. It was the middle of the day and warm out.

I did a few warm up sets as typically for me I gas out when doing higher reps on the SDHP. I also had not done a SDHP in a long time.

Overall, the SDHP felt pretty good. I tried to focus on keeping in tight to get my hamstrings invovled and not round my back at all. I wanted a more dynamic extension through the midline similar to a clean using the hips and hamstrings.

PP felt solid overall.

I completed in about 8:45.

I also got the WOD mixedup in my head and ended up doing 24's, 21, 18... so a larger set than required but still a great quick fun mix up WOD. This was my first time with this couplet and I will definitely do this one, or a similar one again soon.

8:59 with 30kg

I struggled in this one, specifically I felt my effort needed to get back to the bar for the next exercise. General fatigue and muscular pain tolerance is something I can get better at. I feel satisfied with my physical performance today, specifically withthe way I used my legs to produce power instead of relying in my arms. I Felt smart today when realized I had to lower the bar in both movements faster so as to not burn my arms and forearms too quickly. I am happy because I used my focus in a useful way after catching my mind hurrying up while focusing on the rep count, I was able to relax and get back to the feelings of my body doing a nice job maintaining my weight distributed with balance to produce speed through the middle with my legs. Also used my attention on breathing as another way of avoid that feeling of being in a hurry. I do this because I love to do it. This is not a duty. This is my passion and my blessing.

Thank you CrossFit.

Mostly unbroken-ish. Grip started going around the set of 12, so had to reset for a second at the bottom.

Push Press instead of Push Jerk. Drilled myself in the chin on rep 4 out of 21... then I decided not to do that again.

Another fun one.

The “vault video,” originally from 2007 but also posted on the linked “compare to” from 130609, is total badass CrossFit.

Brendan Gilliam was one of the original fire breathers. Always get a big smile watching his WOD demos.

Champions Club Scaling Notes

RANT

I didn't get a chance to test out this workout, so I just did something different. But it got me thinking about how much I rely on doing the actual thing the rest of the people in the Champions Club are doing to give me a better feel on how they could approach it. My first CrossFit workout partner - used to post on here as "brian t" back in '06-'09 always emphasized to me how important it was for a coach to follow his athlete's programming. CrossFit, as a whole, is the best example I've ever seen of this. I laugh thinking about some of the track coaches trying to follow the programming they give their runners.

WORKOUT THEMES

Two movements pretty far down the technique line required at a high intensity and in high volume. Core to extremity and unweighting are main themes here, as well as jumping.

MAIN DECISION

How the hell am I going to turn this into our first team workout of Summer 2021? Little bit of trivia for absolutely nobody but myself: this was our opening workout for Summer 2013 - first day ever of 50 people.

TECHNIQUE SCALE

As is.

CONSISTENCY SCALE

Same rep scheme, deadlift and push press instead of sdhp and push jerk. Maybe add a round of 27.

INTENSITY SCALE

Once you stop the cycling the workout is done.

INJURY SCALE

Upper-body - kb swing and GHD sit-up

Lower-body - pick two of the most difficult movements in your arsenal and do an 15-minute AMRAP

MY STUFF

Did a team workout version of Grettel with Alex as part of his gameday workout.
