24:21 as rx’d (used an abmat under 8 1/8” parallelettes) rows were 1:53.1/1:54/1:51.5

Parallette hspu were kipped and broken into singles. Strict HSPU in sets of 2, and kipping HSPU in mostly sets of 3...found a closer handwidth both easier and painless.

Played around with Rds of 10 pike push-ups with feet on bed and 5 burpees. Started with EMOM then added 10 seated resistance band rows and switched to a round every other minute on the minute until I couldn’t go unbroken on the pikes. I think somewhere around 12 rounds total completed.


Finding ways to at least try to meet the stimulus of these WODs while confined to this room has been challenging.

Lots of Handstand practice beforehand. Also did some practice deficit HSPU using 55lb dumbbells to hold. I'll need to do these more often. Those few extra inches are really tough.

"Strict" means descent/ascent with no kip or wiggle; I can't quite tap the ground. I can't do kipping HSPUs, either, but I made sure to tap each deficit pike.

Kirk: deficit is more difficult than regular. For example, the parallette HSPU has you working from a deficit and is the most difficult in this workout.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

Nothing to rant about


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Row - monostructural movement that is at a distance flexible enough to be a sprint, recovery pace, or somewhere in between

Handstand push-ups - pushing with an exaggeration of changing orientation, overhead, more ROM than usual, more strength than skill, then finally adding back skill when the arms are completely fried out


WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT

I would say Just a Workout but HSPU will limit a bit. I think the format is something that anyone can shade towards any purpose they want.


TECHNIQUE SCALE

As is, disregard the timer.


CONSISTENCY SCALE

As is, do the rows at the same time for all 3 and hspu in as few sets as possible.

or

1 round of:

Row 1,500m

60 HSPU (start strict then move to kipping when your arms give out).


INTENSITY SCALE

Do the rows as fast as you can (post all 3 individual times to comments). Use the HSPU as a rest for your row.


MY STUFF

Didn't have parallettes so I did 11 kettlebell hspu the first round without falling and dying so I figured I'd cut that while I was ahead, then did 11 ring hspu descents (still don't know how one is supposed to actually push up from those) for the second, then kipping hspu for the third. 460m Run was a rest-ish station. As embarrassing as it is, coordination was the limiting factor on my last HSPUs. Going from two rounds at a deficit to the third round on the flat ground threw off my kip. Humbling for sure.


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 6

You can lower your rings to just a few inches off the ground & work pressing out onto them from a headstand. I also like hooking my feet on the outside of the straps with a little bit of inward pressure instead of wrapping my feet through & around. Puts my body in a much more balanced place to push from. Also, if you hook through & around the friction on the straps by your feet & legs makes the press nearly impossible. At least in my experience! I also built a ring-thing which has been a blast for working the positions without the fear of falling & dying! A homemade one is much cheaper & I love to rock climb so another good harness & set of pulleys is a bonus!
