Scaling:
Today’s workout is a twist on the classic CrossFit benchmark Angie. Expect this variation to be disorienting and require more upper-body strength and stamina. This added challenge should cause you to manage your reps and think about strategic breaks. For example, breaking the pull-ups into consistent sets of 5-10 and minimizing rest between sets. Even though your capacity may allow for more, these strategic breaks can keep you “fresh” for longer and keep you in control of your workout.

Typically, Angie should be completed in 20 minutes or less. With the added challenge in today’s variation, athletes should aim to complete this workout in 30 minutes or less.

Less-experienced athletes should reduce the distance of the handstand walks and the reps of the other movements. Consider one of the options below based on your capacity and experience.

Intermediate option:
4 rounds for time:

15 shoulder taps *Choose from the options below
15 pull-ups
15 shoulder taps
15 push-ups
15 shoulder taps
15 sit-ups
15 shoulder taps
15 air squats

*In a handstand against the walk
*With feet on a box
*In a pike position on the floor

Beginner option:
4 rounds for time:

15-foot bear crawl
10 jumping pull-ups
15-foot bear crawl
10 push-ups from the knees
15-foot bear crawl
10 sit-ups
15-foot bear crawl
10 air squats

Coaching cues:
Struggling to stay inverted during your handstand walks? It’s all about commitment. Allow your feet to come fully forward of your body as you press the support arm into the ground with an engaged midline and active shoulder, moving one hand at a time.

Scaling:
Today's workout is a variation of the benchmark workout Angie. You have 3 minutes to work through each movement, accumulating as many reps as possible. Your goal is to perform 30-70+ reps of each movement. Avoid pushing to failure on the push-ups and pull-ups. Consider performing smaller sets that you can maintain with minimal rest to keep moving. Choose movement variations that allow you to perform at least 10 reps per minute in each movement.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx'd

Beginner option:
For reps:
3 minutes of ring rows
3 minutes of hand-elevated push-ups
3 minutes of sit-ups
3 minutes of air squats

Resources:

The Push-Up
The AbMat Sit-Up

Italian Army Capt. Manuel Fiorito, 27, of Verona, Italy, was killed May 5, 2006, when a roadside bomb detonated near his vehicle in Kabul, Afghanistan. Shortly before he died, Fiorito tended to other wounded men and prepared for defense against the enemy attack.

Fiorito served with the Italian 2nd Alpine Regiment and was posthumously awarded the Silver Medal of Military Valor for his bravery.

Fiorito was fond of Cindy, Murph, Mary and Angie, and was a pioneer in bringing CrossFit to the Italian military community. He is survived by many friends and family.
