♂ 185-lb barbell

Post times to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a weightlifting and monostructural couplet. Use caution when pushing the pace on the bike. That strategy may make the bench presses more difficult than necessary. Instead, adjust your pace to allow you to maintain bigger chunks of reps on the bench. The loading of the barbell should be moderate to heavy and allow you to maintain consistent sets of 5-7 reps. Avoid pushing to failure on the bench presses unless you have a spotter. If you do not have a spotter, take extra time to rest between sets and only perform reps you know you can complete.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading and volume of the barbell. Reduce the calories on the bike.

To reduce the complexity of the bench presses, perform dumbbell bench presses or dumbbell floor presses.

In case of injury or limitation, perform the calories on any machine available. For the bench presses, perform single-arm dumbbell bench presses or push-ups.

Post total time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is three intervals with descending rep schemes. The rest in between each interval should allow you to keep intensity high throughout the entire effort. Aim for big to unbroken sets of reps on both the pull-ups and burpees. The loading of the barbell should be light to moderate and allow you to perform some touch-and-go reps.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the reps of any of the movements.

To reduce the complexity of pull-ups, perform jumping pull-ups or ring rows. For the burpees, perform up-downs. For the power snatches, perform hang power snatches or dumbbell snatches.

In case of injury or limitation, perform single-arm ring rows or dumbbell rows for the pull-ups. For the power snatches, perform power cleans if there is an overhead limitation.

5 rounds for time of:
12 push jerks
12 back squats

♀ 95 lb
♂ 135 lb

Compare to 250107.

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is just you and the barbell. This is also a repeat from earlier this year — look back at your score to help you better navigate today’s effort. The loading should feel moderate and allow you to perform at least 2 rounds unbroken. A short break between movements is totally fine, but some athletes may be able to finish the last push jerk, lower the bar to the back rack, and begin the back squats. If you follow the loading stimulus, the goal is to minimize rest and complete as many sets as possible unbroken. This workout should take less than 10 minutes. Some advanced athletes may be able to go sub-5. The barbell should come from the floor. Do not use a rack unless there is an injury or limitation.

Scaling:
Reduce the load of the barbell to maintain the safety and integrity of each movement, including being able to get the barbell safely from the ground to the back rack even under fatigue.

Reduce the complexity of the push jerks by performing push presses or shoulder presses. Consider using dumbbells to reduce the complexity of both movements.

In case of injury or limitation, perform single-arm dumbbell push jerks or push presses, and dumbbell goblet squats. To eliminate the barbell, perform push-ups and air squats.

Intermediate option:
5 rounds for time of:
12 push jerks
12 back squats

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Beginner option:
3 rounds for time of:
12 push jerks
12 back squats

♀ 35 lb
♂ 45 lb

Coaching cues:
Each squat in today’s workout can be done quickly, but make sure you are keeping your weight balanced about your feet. Move too quickly, and the weight may pull you into your toes. Slow it down, regain your balance and then increase the speed as you are able.

U.S. Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Fernando Jorge, 39, of Cypress, California, an Aviation Survival Technician Chief, died on Feb. 28, 2012, when his unit's helicopter crashed into Mobile Bay in the Gulf of Mexico during a training mission. He is survived by his sister Gina.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, we’re completing a CrossFit Hero workout. Expect this effort to be a grind. Choose a weight for the barbell that allows you to perform singles relatively quickly. As a gauge, your goal should be to perform at least 5 squat cleans in a minute. For the GHD sit-ups, if you are not familiar with this movement and consistently training on the GHD, reduce the reps and range of motion.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the GHD sit-ups, reduce the range of motion, or perform V-ups or sit-ups. For the squat cleans, consider hang squat cleans with a barbell or dumbbells.

In case of injury or limitation, for the squat cleans, consider single-dumbbell hang squat cleans or goblet squats. For the GHD sit-ups, perform sit-ups or plank shoulder taps.

Intermediate option:

Tabata is 20 seconds of work, then 10 seconds of rest for 8 rounds. Complete all 8 rounds of the deadlifts, then complete all 8 rounds of the box jump-overs.

♀ 125-lb barbell and 20-inch box
♂ 185-lb barbell and 24-inch box

Post reps to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a double dose of Tabata — one weightlifting movement and one gymnastics movement. The goal is to move for as much of the 20 seconds as possible with minimal rest. The loading of the deadlift should be light to moderate. For the box jump-overs, consider stepping off the box before jumping into your next rep for safety. Following your last set of deadlifts, you have 10 seconds to transition to the first set of box jump-overs.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the deadlift. Reduce the height of the box.

To reduce the complexity of the box jump-overs, consider performing box step-overs.

In case of injury or limitation, perform sumo deadlifts or dumbbell deadlifts. For the box jump-overs, consider performing calories on any available machine.

4 rounds for time of:
21 front squats
15 bar-facing burpees
9 strict handstand push-ups

♀ 75 lb
♂ 115 lb

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a classic triplet. The barbell in this workout is on the light-to-moderate side and should be light enough to challenge you to be unbroken in each set while being heavy enough to tempt you to put it down. Be cautious of the pressing fatigue from the combination of burpees and strict handstand push-ups. Focus on managing your pace and breaking before you need to to avoid hitting failure early in this effort.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the front squats and the reps of handstand push-ups to no less than 5 per round.

To reduce the complexity of the strict handstand push-ups, consider pike push-ups or seated dumbbell shoulder presses.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider using dumbbells for the front squats if there is a rack position limitation. For the burpees, consider up-downs. For the strict handstand push-ups, consider single-dumbbell shoulder presses.

Intermediate option:
4 rounds for time of:
21 front squats
15 bar-facing burpees
5 strict handstand push-ups

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Beginner option:
4 rounds for time of:
12 front squats
9 bar-facing burpees
6 seated dumbbell shoulder presses

♀ 35-lb barbell and 15-lb dumbbells
♂ 45-lb barbell and 20-lb dumbbells

Coaching cues:
As you are pressing out of the handstand, focus on bringing your ribs to your hips and looking across to the other side of the room. These will keep your body more well-connected and avoid excessive arching in the spine.

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
30 double-unders
3 push jerks

♀ 125 lb
♂ 185 lb

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a weightlifting and monostructural couplet. The reps are relatively low to keep round cycle time faster for those who are proficient in both movements. Performing a single round in less than 1 minute is certainly possible, but today could also be a good day to work on double-unders, or on the push jerk under some fatigue. The loading on the barbell should feel challenging, but still allow you to perform unbroken reps in each round.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the jump rope, choose one of two options, either performing double-under attempts for 30 seconds or single-unders. For the push jerks, perform push presses.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider riding a bike for 5/7 calories. For the push jerks, consider using dumbbells if there is a rack position limitation.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
30 double-unders

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps for time of:
Hang squat cleans

Perform a 50-foot handstand walk after each set.

♀ 75-lb barbell
♂ 115-lb barbell

Post times to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
In today’s workout, push to maintain unbroken hang squat cleans. The loading should feel light to moderate and allow you to hang on to the larger sets. The handstand walk should be a nice “break” before getting back on the barbell. However, don’t be fooled — getting upside down after the hang squat cleans will be more difficult than you think. Advanced athletes should challenge themselves to perform the handstand walks unbroken, and if you fail to make it 50 feet, go back to the start. Have fun!

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the distance of the handstand walk.

To reduce the complexity of the hang squat clean, consider a power clean plus front squat, or using a single or pair of dumbbells. For the handstand walks, consider putting your feet on a box and walking in a complete circle (do this once per 50 feet). You may also consider 20-30 shoulder taps or bear crawls.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider hang power cleans or light goblet squats in place of the hang squat cleans. For the handstand walks, consider shoulder taps in the plank position or a 30-second sprint on the ski erg.

Intermediate option:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps for time of:

♀ 125 lb
♂ 185 lb

Post time to the comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is an ascending ladder of rope climbs and a descending ladder of bench presses. Expect this to be more of a moderate-duration effort and a bit of a “pump” session. Since both movements can be more upper-body dominant, focus on your foot hook while climbing the rope and avoid pushing to failure on either movement. This will help take some demand off the upper body and reduce fatigue. If you completed the Open workout yesterday and feel fatigued, reduce the intensity today by slowing down or choosing less-demanding scaling options.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the bench presses. If you are able to perform a rope climb, but the later sets contain too many reps, consider reducing the reps to 1/2/2/2/2/2.

To reduce the complexity of the bench presses, consider performing dumbbell bench presses or floor presses. For the rope climbs, reduce the height of the climb, perform pull-to-stands, or consider pull-ups or ring rows.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider performing single-arm dumbbell bench presses or floor presses. If necessary, perform push-ups to eliminate the loading. For the rope climbs, consider pull-to-stands, ring rows, or dumbbell bent-over rows.

♀ 65-lb barbell, 20-lb dumbbells, and a 20-inch box
♂ 95-lb barbell, 35-lb dumbbells, and a 24-inch box

Post rounds and reps to the comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a back-and-forth couplet. Aim to perform at least 5 rounds, but don’t be surprised if some athletes creep up toward 9. Expect this one to be sneaky on your legs. With the sumo setup and the step-up on the box, the lactic acid build-up and your leg stamina may be the limiting factor. The loading for each movement should allow you to keep moving for the entire duration of the workout. Take small breaks and get back to it.

Scaling:
Reduce the load of the barbell and/or the dumbbells.

Reduce the complexity of the sumo deadlift high pull by using a kettlebell or dumbbell to perform the movement. As for the dumbbell box step-overs, reduce the height of the box or perform the movement without any weight.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider performing the sumo deadlift high pull with a kettlebell or dumbbell. The same movement can also be performed with a single arm. As for the dumbbell box step-overs, perform these with no weight and reduce the height of the box.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 10 minutes of:
10 sumo deadlift high pulls
10 dumbbell box step-overs

♀ 55-lb barbell, 15-lb dumbbells, and a 20-inch box

2 rounds for time of:
35 pull-ups
35 shoulder-to-overheads

♀ 75 lb
♂ 115 lb

Post times to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a classic push/pull gymnastics couplet. Expect this effort to test your stamina and give you a pretty significant upper-body pump. The goal is to complete this workout in 10 minutes or less. You may see some more advanced athletes finish closer to 5 minutes. Choose a weight that allows you to perform at least 10 reps every time you pick up the barbell.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell to something that feels moderate-to-light. If you are capable of performing pull-ups, but 70 reps is too much volume, reduce the reps to 15-25 in each round.

Reduce the complexity of the pull-up by performing a jumping pull-up, banded pull-up, or ring row. For the shoulder-to-overhead, perform a push press or shoulder press with lighter weight.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider reducing the reps and performing a single-arm ring row or a bent-over dumbbell row in place of the pull-ups. If the rack position is the limitation in the shoulder-to-overhead, use a pair of dumbbells.

Intermediate option:
2 rounds for time of:
25 pull-ups
35 shoulder-to-overheads

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Beginner option:
2 rounds for time of:
25 ring rows
25 shoulder-to-overheads

♀ 35 lb
♂ 45 lb

Coaching cues:
To help with cycling shoulder-to-overhead reps, focus on keeping your elbows up as you return the barbell to the shoulders. This helps maintain the shelf and keeps the barbell from drifting down your chest.

5 rounds for time of:
Row 350/500 meters in as few pulls as possible

After each row, perform 2 double-unders for each pull taken. For example, if it takes 40 pulls to complete the row, complete 80 double-unders before starting the next round.

Post time and number of pulls each round to comments.

Compare to 210928.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout will require thought and strategy. To maximize the distance in each pull, the effort encourages hard pulls on the rower. Increase the damper setting and slow your cadence to minimize the number of pulls each round. If needed, reduce the total distance to something you can complete in 60 total pulls or less in each set.

Scaling:
Reduce the distance on the rower.

To adjust the complexity of the double-under, consider performing single-unders or jumping jacks. If you have double-unders, but they are inconsistent, consider performing attempts and counting both singles and doubles toward your reps.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider performing jumping jacks, penguin taps, or alternating toe taps on a low box in place of the double-unders.

Intermediate option:
5 rounds for time of:
Row 350/500 meters in as few pulls as possible.

After each row, perform 1 double-under for each pull taken. For example, if it takes 40 pulls to complete the row, complete 40 double-unders before starting the next round.

Beginner option:
3 rounds for time of:
Row 350/500 meters in as few pulls as possible.

After each row, perform 1 single-under for each pull taken. For example, if it takes 40 pulls to complete the row, complete 40 single-unders before starting the next round.

Coaching cues:
To reduce your stroke rate, focus on your return. Release your hands away from your body, lean forward slightly, and count to three as you pull yourself back into the catch position.

Post time to comments.

Compare to similar 220407.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Amanda is a classic benchmark workout. Typically, this workout is performed with a squat snatch, however, today we are going to perform a power snatch. Most athletes should aim to complete the workout in 12 minutes or less. Some more advanced athletes could finish in 5 minutes or less.

Scaling:
Reduce the volume of the muscle-ups. Athletes who have muscle-ups, but not the overall volume, should consider reducing the repetitions to 7-5-3 or 4-3-2.

To adjust the complexity of the muscle-ups, perform a jumping muscle-up, low-ring transition, or ring rows and push-ups. For the power snatch, perform a hang power snatch, a hang muscle snatch, or a dumbbell snatch.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider performing low-ring transitions, or ring rows and push-ups. For the power snatch, consider a hang power clean or single-arm dumbbell snatch.

Army Sgt. 1st Class Riley G. Stephens, 39, of Tolar, Texas, assigned to the 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), died Sept. 28, 2012, in Wardak, Afghanistan, of wounds caused by enemy small-arms fire. Stephens is survived by his wife Tiffany; children, Austin, Morgan, and Rylee Ann; parents, Michael and Joann; brother Ken; and several family members.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s Hero workout is a longer-duration effort. This is meant to be a grind, so expect this workout to take up to 60 minutes. Each run and the burpees should take no more than 20 minutes to complete (each). Athletes who are capable of completing this workout in 35 minutes or less can consider adding a weight vest or body armor. Most athletes should attempt this workout using their own body weight. Work hard and have fun.

Scaling:
Reduce the distance of the run and the repetitions of the burpees.

To adjust the complexity of the run, instead of reducing the distance, consider using a movement substitution like a bike or a rower. Perform 5,500 meters on an Echo bike or 2,500 meters on a rower or ski erg. For the burpees, reduce the range of motion by performing an up-down.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider the running substitutions mentioned above. For burpees, perform up-downs, push-ups, or mountain climbers.

Intermediate option:

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a chipper and may look familiar. This mash-up fuses together three classic CrossFit benchmarks: Diane, Elizabeth, and Fran, but with fewer reps than the traditional 45 of each movement. That said, this should challenge you to keep moving and maintain larger chunks of reps. All athletes should use options that allow them to finish in 15 minutes or less. Advanced athletes may be able to go sub-10.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of each barbell to something that feels moderate-to-light for each movement and that you can complete in sets of at least 10 while fresh.

To reduce the complexity of the handstand push-up, perform a pike push-up or dumbbell shoulder press. For the ring dips, lower the rings to a position that allows your feet to touch the ground. Then use them to help you move through the range of motion. For the pull-ups, perform a jumping pull-up or ring row. For the barbell movements, reduce the loading to something that allows you to focus on the technique and move safely.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider using a single dumbbell for most of the movements. Perform a single-arm shoulder press for the handstand push-ups, a dumbbell sumo deadlift for the deadlift or an unweighted good morning, a push-up or dumbbell floor press for the ring dips, a single-arm dumbbell power clean for the power cleans, a single-arm ring row for the pull-ups, and a single-arm dumbbell thruster, dumbbell front squat, or dumbbell push press for the thruster.

Coaching cues:
For the power cleans in today’s workout, it may be tempting to perform muscle cleans or use more upper body. Be cautious as the next movement is pull-ups. Instead, focus on using your legs and pulling into a partial squat.

♀ 95 lb
♂ 135 lb

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout takes three movements and gives you an increasing amount of time to accumulate reps. If you are proficient in each movement, keep moving for as much of the interval as possible. Limit yourself to small breaks and push your thresholds in each movement. Less-experienced athletes should not push to failure or exhaustion because you will end up spending more time recovering. Instead, perform a few reps, take small breaks, and then continue to chip away. Expect the longer intervals to require more strategy in comparison to the single minute of work. Going all out for 2 or 3 minutes may not set you up for success in the following movement.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the double-under, perform single-unders, double-under attempts, or a mix of both. For the single-leg squats, consider squatting to a target or performing a reverse lunge. For the hang clean and jerks, use one or two dumbbells.

In case of injury or limitation, perform calories on any machine in place of the double-unders. For the single-leg squats, consider performing a lunge or an air squat. For the hang clean and jerks, consider a muscle clean and shoulder press with a barbell or dumbbells. If you have an overhead limitation, you can also forgo the jerk and just perform the clean.

Post loads to comments.

Compare to 240227.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a classic heavy day. The goal is to find a heavy single shoulder press, triple push press, and set of 5 push jerks. Keep in mind that heavy is relative to each person. Even though most athletes can perform this workout as prescribed, the challenge lies in the technical complexities of the movements. Adding load should be based on your ability to stay mechanically sound. Each athlete, regardless of experience level, should focus on technique before adding weight.

Scaling:
Reduce the load on the barbell to maintain the safety and integrity of each lift.

Reduce the complexity of each movement by reducing the load. Using dumbbells can also decrease the complexity as you do not have to worry about getting the chin out of the way.

In case of injury or limitation, perform a single-arm dumbbell shoulder press, push press, and push jerk.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Beginner option:
Same as Rx’d.

Coaching cues:
Just because the shoulder press is a strict upper-body movement, it doesn’t mean it has to be slow. Move the barbell to the overhead position by keeping your body tight, taking in a big breath, getting your head out of the way, and driving your hands to the sky as quickly as possible.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is inspired by the classic CrossFit workout Jackie. Your goal is to finish in 10 minutes or less. Just like Jackie, you need to push the pace on the rower. The workout isn’t won here, but it can certainly be lost. The load of the barbell should feel light and allow you to knock out larger chunks of reps. On the handstand push-ups — just like the pull-ups in Jackie — use whatever you have left in the tank to get across the finish line.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell to maintain sets of 15 reps or more.

To reduce the complexity of the deadlift, consider performing a sumo deadlift or a dumbbell deadlift. For the handstand push-ups, consider a pike push-up, a dumbbell push press, or a standard push-up.

In case of injury or limitation, complete 2,500 meters on the Echo bike or 1,000 meters on a ski erg. For the deadlifts, consider a sumo deadlift with a kettlebell, an unloaded good morning, or a GHD hip extension. For the handstand push-ups, consider a dumbbell shoulder press with one or both arms or a push-up.

10 rounds for time of:
9 thrusters
35 double-unders

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Post time to comments.

Compare to 170807.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a retest of a previous Open workout from 2017. If you have completed this before, look back at your score. In most cases, the barbell loading should not be the limiting factor. Instead, it should be performing these two movements while managing a high heart rate. Most should aim to complete this workout in less than 20 minutes. That being said, today could be a day to try the prescribed version even if you have to break up each set of thrusters. This builds confidence and allows you to establish a time for this benchmark.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell to maintain unbroken reps for most of your sets.

To reduce the complexity of the thruster, use a pair of dumbbells or perform a front squat followed by a push press. For the double-unders, perform as many as you can in 30 seconds or perform single-unders.

In case of injury or limitation, perform a single-arm dumbbell thruster, a front squat for an overhead limitation, or a push press for a squat limitation. For the jump rope, get on any machine and accumulate 6/8 calories per round.

Intermediate option:

15-12-9 reps for load of:
Clean and jerk

Touch and go at the floor only. Even a re-grip off the floor is a foul. No dumping. Use the same load for each set. Rest as needed between sets.

Post load to comments.

Compare to 220821.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Most athletes should perform this benchmark workout as written. All athletes should focus on maintaining mechanics and consistency while increasing the loading. Warm up by adding weight slowly, ensuring you can maintain great technique prior to adding additional load. For the set of 15 reps, find a weight you feel confident performing for 10 reps. In the set of 15, reps 1-7 should be no problem, reps 8-12 will take some focus and challenge your barbell stamina, and reps 13-15 should challenge your mental fortitude and barbell technique as you get tired.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell to maintain the safety and integrity of the movement.

To reduce the complexity of the movement, reduce the loading and perform a hang clean and push press. Newer athletes should ignore the touch-and-go requirement and instead take a few seconds to establish a sound setup position.

In case of injury or limitation, use a dumbbell or pair of dumbbells. Use a hang power clean instead of a pull from the floor. If there is an overhead limitation, perform the clean only.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Beginner option:
12-9-6 reps for load of:

Coaching cues:
Think of the clean and jerk as two jumps. The first jump gets the barbell to the shoulders and the second jump gets the barbell overhead.

5 rounds for time of:
12 push jerks
12 back squats

♀ 95 lb
♂ 135 lb

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is just you and the barbell. The loading should feel moderate and allow you to perform at least 2 of the 5 rounds unbroken. A short break between movements is totally fine, but some athletes may be able to finish the last push jerk, lower the bar down to the back rack, and then begin the back squats. If you follow the loading stimulus, the goal is to minimize rest and complete as many sets as possible unbroken. Overall, this workout should take less than 10 minutes. Some advanced athletes may be able to go sub-5. The barbell should come from the floor. Do not use a rack unless there is an injury or limitation.

Scaling:
Reduce the load of the barbell to maintain the safety and integrity of each movement, including being able to get the barbell safely from the ground to the back rack.

Reduce the complexity of the push jerk by performing a push press or shoulder press. Consider using dumbbells to reduce the complexity of both movements.

In case of injury or limitation, perform a single-arm dumbbell push jerk or push press and a dumbbell goblet squat. To eliminate the barbell, perform a push-up and an air squat.

Intermediate option:
5 rounds for time of:
12 push jerks
12 back squats

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Beginner option:
3 rounds for time of:

Coaching cues:
To keep from having to reset the feet on every lift, when you are performing the push jerk, set your feet up in your squat stance. When you jump and land, pick your feet up and put them down in the same spot.

♀ 125 lb
♂ 185 lb

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a longer-duration chipper. All athletes should aim to complete this effort in 20 minutes or less. The loading of the barbell is meant to be moderately heavy. This means for most, singles will be the most effective way to get through the reps. This load should also allow you to complete at least 4 reps per minute. For the handstand walk, choose an option that allows you to keep moving and advancing. Work hard and have fun with this one.

Scaling:
Reduce the distance of the run and handstand walk. Reduce the load of the barbell. If you are new to handstand walking, scale the distance or spend no more than 5 minutes working to accumulate as much distance as possible.

To reduce the complexity of the handstand walk, perform shoulder taps in the pike position or perform a bear crawl. For the power snatches, perform these from the hang position or use a dumbbell.

In case of injury or limitation, perform a 3,500/5,000-meter Echo bike or 1,600/2,000-meter row in place of the run. For the handstand walk, work to accumulate a 2-minute plank hold. For the power snatches, perform a single-arm dumbbell snatch or a clean if there is an overhead limitation.

Post total calories/reps for each exercise to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a Tabata mash-up. Complete the full 8 rounds of the first movement before moving on to the next. Continue in the same fashion until all four movements are complete. Your score is the total number of reps completed. The loading of both the dumbbells and the barbell should be light and allow you to keep moving. If you have not been training consistently on the GHD, reduce the range of motion or substitute with AbMat sit-ups.

Scaling:
Reduce the total volume of the workout by limiting the number of reps performed within each interval. Reduce the loading of the dumbbells and barbell. Lower the height of the box.

Limit the range of motion on the GHD sit-ups by going to parallel or performing AbMat sit-ups. For the push presses, consider using a pair of lighter dumbbells. As for the bar-facing burpees, perform up-downs or step over the bar.

In case of injury or limitation, perform the box step-ups without a pair of dumbbells and lower the height of the box. Perform a plank hold for the GHD sit-ups. For the push presses, perform a single-arm dumbbell push press or shoulder press. For the bar-facing burpees, perform an up-down or pick any machine to use in place of the exercise.

Compare to 231225.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is all bodyweight movements. Scale the difficulty of each element so you can keep moving and perform the reps of each movement unbroken — more moving and less hook-gripping your shorts.

Scaling:
The exercises with the most reps are push-ups through jumping lunges — anywhere from 36 to 42 reps. Reduce the reps as needed or only perform the even rounds (i.e., in Round 1, perform 2 candlesticks, then 1 inchworm. In Round 2, complete 4 knee push-ups, 3 burpees, 2 candlesticks, then 1 inchworm. Continue adding two new exercises each even round).

To reduce the complexity of these bodyweight movements, reduce the range of motion. For example, on the wall walks, only take two steps toward the wall or perform an inchworm. On the burpees, perform an up-down. On the handstand push-ups, perform a dumbbell shoulder press or pike push-up. And for the single-leg squats, use a higher target or do an air squat.

In case of injury or limitation, substitute equipment to preserve the movement function as much as possible, or choose an alternative suitable for your situation.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Stimulus and Strategy: Today’s workout is a gymnastics and weightlifting couplet. Athletes should aim to complete this workout in 14 minutes or less. Expect the air squats to make the snatches more difficult than you want them to be. The loading of the snatches should be moderate to heavy. Some athletes may be able to perform a few touch-and-go reps, however, most will find success in performing quick singles.

Scaling: Reduce the load of the barbell to complete the first 10 snatches in 2 minutes or less. Reduce the reps of the air squats to complete each set in 1:30 or less. Reduce the complexity of the snatch by performing a hang snatch. In case of injury or limitation, perform a hang snatch or single-arm dumbbell snatch in place of the snatch. For the air squats, consider squatting to a target, or performing a lunge or a box step-up.

Scaling:
Today’s workout pairs a weightlifting element with a monostructural element. The row distances are short enough that they deserve to be pushed and not paced. The loading of the overhead squat sits on the light-to-moderate side. The barbell should be taken from the floor and the weight you choose should allow you to complete your reps in 2 sets or less. The goal is less looking at the bar and more moving it. The final row should be an all-out sprint!

Scaling:
Today’s workout is a classic chipper-style effort. Some may recognize it as the “Dirty Thirty” with an added row to begin the workout. The goal is to make it as far through this workout as possible within the allotted time. Some may even finish the double-unders and get an opportunity to get back on the rower. However, most should aim to make it to the wall-ball shots and get as many reps as possible before time runs out. To hit this stimulus, the row should take no more than 6 minutes to complete. Every other movement after should be kept to 1:30 or less.

Coaching cues:
In the dip of the push press, your torso should be vertical with your shoulders and hips stacked over your ankles. As you dip, think about sliding your knees forward slightly as your shoulders and hips drop straight down over your ankles.
