Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a challenging triplet with a descending rep scheme. The two weightlifting movements are difficult because of the moderate-to-heavy loading while the gymnastics exercise challenges your strict pressing stamina. Manage your reps and avoid pushing to failure early on. Expect the deadlifts to be the easier of the two weightlifting movements. Break the hang squat cleans as needed, but remember, the more you drop the bar, the more you have to pick it up.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the strict ring dips, perform foot-assisted ring dips or jumping ring dips. If you are choosing foot-assisted dips, use your feet or foot as much or as little as needed while still maintaining a full range of motion. For the deadlifts and hang squat cleans, use a pair of dumbbells or a medicine ball.

In case of injury or limitation, for the ring dips, perform box/bench dips or push-ups. For the deadlifts, consider sumo deadlifts with a barbell or kettlebell. For the hang squat cleans, consider breaking the movement into its component pieces of a hang power clean, plus a front squat. In case of a limitation, you could perform hang power cleans or front squats.

Coaching cues:
With the heavier loading on the hang squat cleans, focus on jumping to full hip extension and getting the elbows around quickly so your elbows are high in the rack position.
