Globo scale: Its been awhile since I've been here but after the Crossfit Games I figured I would resume this project. It was awesome to see everyone at the Games that I havent seen in 2 years (or a year and a half, if you were in Miami for WZA last year) and a shoutout to the fan workout staff for a well ran fan experience, and the other volunteers and vendors for an amazing event.


For this, it is strongly recommended to find a gym with the proper equipment and follow the scaling recommendations if needed. Most globos will have a barbell, rack and plates. If you are in Planet Fitness, hotel, or a similar gym (or only have dumbbells), load up the Smith Machine (yes I know) or work up to a heavy dumbbells front squat, strict dumbbell shoulder press, and dumbbell deadlift. If you max out the dumbbells, go for max reps of the movements with good form. Bodyweight subs warmup then perform three sets of max weighted pistols, strict HSPUs , and banded good mornings or supermans, (or try to deadlift your car or some odd object, safety first). Scale as needed.
