M/33/5'7"/214lbs/Recovering Rib from Deadlifts


Deadlift 165lbs 2x5

Deadlift 195lbs 2x3

Deadlift 225lbs 2x3


Absolutely did not want to go heavy today, as this workout caused me to crack my rib on the second rep of a 265lb triple. Did this on Wednesday 10/04/23 and probably had up to 300lbs in the tank. Took the beginner option today and focused on form and feeling good about my recovering body. Today was just getting some moderately heavy deadlift pulling volume in. Rib has felt fine lately, but I felt the pulling pressure on my first set at 225lbs. Good boundaries today with recovery. Did some sets of 4 pullups along the way and finished with 5x(1:00) 35lb FarmerCarry. Checked the box as a moderately heavy pull day for moderate volume with no cardio at all.

Could have gone for pr and more weight even in previous sets but tried to work today more on form so that hips don't rise before and back stays flat.

major new PR @ 175#!! Haven’t done a PR for deadlift since high school, and form had deteriorated over the years, so really dropped weight for a while to focus on form.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WORKOUT THEMES

Max output followed by full recovery. Single modality, weightlifting. Squatting with an emphasis on pushing and midline stability.


SHORT MEDIUM LONG


LIGHT


MEDIUM


HEAVY x


FORMAT/MOVEMENT QUESTIONS

Do I want to make the 1-rep max the priority, or do I want to max out at the 5 and 3 rep weights also?

Is my technique good enough to merit doing a 1 rep max?

How picky am I going to be about the number of sets at each rep scheme?


NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE

Same format, just do like 10+ reps as each set


MY STUFF

Did 4 rounds of 50 squats and 75 double unders. Either 8:53 or 9:53. Spicy for sure


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 4

Globo wod: as RXed for most. If noise is an issue use mats under the plates. If a Smith machine is all you have do heavy rack pulls. Dumbbells sub dumbbell Romanian deadlifts 5-5-5-5-5, or single leg deadlifts 5x5 each leg. If you max the available dumbbells do AMRAP sets. Novices can do regular dumbbell deadlifts as a scale.
