re: The Greyskull Methods- A Primer

Very well thought out program setup similar to the texas method. I have never scene that one before, thank you for the link. I will add it to the OP. I would consider it more of something you run to get more strength gains before switching to the greyskull traditional 2 set RPT training or the more Advanced Rest pause training.
I need to finish write ups on all of this.

No problem, thought it looked solid as well...

Looks like running wore me out this week. I made it to 3 reps at 400 on squats. How much do I dial it back?
Posted on 6/29/18 at 12:07 pm to DeafJam73
give it another shot then dial back 15% in your case.

So if I break 5 reps on Monday, keep on trucking?

Thinking about swapping out RDLs for block/rack pulls on deadlift day. Good idea?
Posted on 7/3/18 at 11:01 am to DeafJam73
Perfectly fine. But I would only do it if you aren't seeing progress or rdl is hurting you some how. in other words don't make a change simply for change
Posted on 7/3/18 at 11:02 am to lsu777
Okay. RDLs are putting strain on my lower back. So I’m thinking replace it with rack pulls that have worked wonders for me and add in reverse hyper extensions to strengthen my back.

Also, should I make today my high carb day since I have to swap today with tomorrow?

Switch the exercises then.
As far as diet goes, no just keep it the same this week. First week, no need to start switching things

I tested last week and started the template you gave me. On the 10 minute gymnastics work are any movements ok to work on, like pistols, muscle ups, chest to bars?
This is the template you gave me:
Monday
Back squat
Bench
Weighted chins
Power clean emom-2-5 reps for 10 min
15 min max wod
And Bodybuilding moves you want to work on to bring up lagging parts
10 min if gymnastics foundation work
Wednesday
Deadlift
Press
Weighted ring rows
Power snacth emom 2-5 reps for 10 min
Same as Monday but different metcon
Friday-
Front squats
Same as Monday except do polymetric bodyweight chins working in the explosion of the lift.

No the gymnastics work should be foundation movements from gymnastics strength training i.e building the gymnastics body or overcoming gravity. I prefer GB though for learning foundations.
You can work skill work like you described in the metcon or during the skill work. Foundations is about building a base to be better at all gymnastics movements, not a specific movement pattern like you described.

How many warm up sets should I do leading up to the working sets? I’m at 405 now on squats and maybe I’m doing too many warm up sets. I do sets of 3 starting at 135 and adding 50 pounds until I work up to the sets.
Posted on 7/5/18 at 10:50 am to DeafJam73
135 x3 , 225x2, 315x1 or 2, 365x1
I also do limber 11 or theragun before

Do limber 11 or agile 8. Just search YouTube.
For warmup, that's up to you but I personally do this
Bar-8 paused
135-5 paused
185-3 paused
225-2
285-2
315-1
But it's up to you, I know how many I need not you. They shouldn't be hard for sure.

I’m going to try this out. Been working out for about 4 months quite frequently and hit a wall and it’s becoming boring again.
With the burpee challenge is this burpee with a push-up or not? It seems 100 in 5 min with a push up would be very tough

no more of a belly flop. and 100 in 5 min is still very very tough.
