W.O.D.4.24.13

Ten rounds for time of:
3 Weighted Pull-ups, 45/25 pounds
5 Strict Pull-ups
7 Kipping Pull-up

For weighted pull-ups place a 45/25 pound dumbbell between the legs above crossed ankles and jettison the dumbbell after third rep and continue with strict pull-ups and then the kipping pull-ups. Coming off the bar or going to ground constitutes termination of a set. 

Scale this according to level and ability for example by either 1) dropping the weight or 2) slightly varying the type of Pull-ups-- 3 deadhang pullups, 5 kipping pullups, 7 banded or jumping pullups or 3) scaling back the number of rounds--depending on what you are able to accomplish.

6am crew used a host of scales to complete this workout. Several athletes were able to start with the dumbbell but not finish the WOD (Al, Klutch). It takes some getting used to - being in that position with a weight between your ankles. Some athletes also used different bands for different levels of difficulty, starting with the set of 3 using mental floss, then working up to bigger bands for the higher volume sets. Talk to a coach and figure out what works best for you to get the most out of this WOD.

I'll also recommend ring rows as a progression for those who are newer or need to work on upper body (strict) strength

Aimee Lyons said...

and remember the placement of feet on Ring Rows will directly determine the difficulty...so you could be directly under the rings for the most difficult (and even have a box under your feet) etc and progress from there.

This looks awful.

See y'alls ater today.

Everyone had to scale this beast, but I saw some good practice in kipping and lots of strength being built!!!

nice job working all sorts of scaling. But as I like to say, "progressions;" this way you are moving forward instead of feeling like you have to be behind or less than someone else
