ADJUSTING
*Reps, Loading, Volume*…
Skill -- The volume we need to be most aware of is the Double Under volume from the Skill to the Workout. Be mindful of
the athletes that are highly proficient with the Double Under...I would give them the challenge to go for an unbroken set
and if they tripped up they would be done for the remainder of that minute. You could also have them see how fast they
could accumulate a low number of DU’s and then rest the remainder of the minute. These are some options to mitigate
volume and to help be mindful of the DU’s they’ll be doing in the workout as well.
Workout -- The place to be most focused on for volume is the DB Step-Ups. These will take even seasoned athletes some
time so for our newer athletes it is a great idea to start them with a lighter DB or to ditch the DB all together. We want to
ensure the stimulus is not missed and if athletes are taking too much time on the Step-Ups due to the loading we are
missing the point of the workout. Also shaving the reps down to something like 30-20-10 is a good way to keep them
moving if they want to use a DB.
*Movement Adjustments*...
Double Unders/ Jump Roping -- If unable to jump adjust the athlete to 18/14 - 15/12 - 12/10 Cal Bike during the workout.
In the skill you can have them
Pistols -- See the Teaching section for Pistol adjustment options, there are plenty! However, if an athlete cannot Squat with
one leg but bilateral Squats work, have them practice some tempo Goblet Squats. You can also have an athlete practice
some slow Split or Curtsey Squats to focus on building unilateral strength.
Single DB Goblet Box Step-Ups -- Athletes can step to a lower box or practice Lunges without any elevation. If unable to
Step-Up or Lunge, see if the DB Goblet Squat can be done without issue or have them complete Slow Sumo DB Deadlifts.
Burpees -- If the athlete is deconditioned or unable to drop to the floor have them complete Up-Downs instead. A Push-Up
can also be used for those unable to hinge.
