Scoring

Time taken to complete workout

 

Scaling

Run: Reduce the distance to 1.2 or 1 k as needed. If you need to modify to a row, perform a 2k row instead.
Strict HSPU: Scale to one abmat under the head, but no more. From there, perform pike push-ups. If these are too easy, have you 2 x one rep per set. Don’t mess around with box pike pushups today. The transition time will take too long.
Heel taps: Reduce the reps as needed. Lower the height of the object. Modify to a bent knee crunch instead.

 

WOD Goal

Instead of trying to retain a similar stimulus, we have mixed it up for you and have created a completely different workout. It still includes the 1 mile run though! 😉
For the heel taps, place two objects beside each other and heel tap over both there and back = 1 rep.

WOD Goal

This workout is fun!! It’s a workout that has a little something for everyone. There are a variety of movements, the reps are low, it is a chipper-ish style, and it has barbell movements 😉
We have used three weightlifting/gymnastics couplets for the bulk of the workout, and ended with a monostructural bomb, aka a 1 mile run (1.6 k). We added the run because it compliments this workout so well, and we wanted to add that component to it. The loading decreases with each couplet. For each movement the loads are intended to be light-moderate, given the low volume.

NOTE: You perform the rep scheme 6-5-4-3-2-1 of each couplet first before moving on to the next couplet. There is no rest between the three couplets and You need to use the same barbell for all three barbell movements. You should have your weights ready to add on close to your barbells.
* If changing of weights is not possible between couplets, choose one load (most likely the middle couplet load) and stick with this for all three couplets. Adjust the volume up or down as needed.
* For PL, we have doubled the reps and adjusted some movements to fit in with the intended stimulus.

 

The goal is to be able to perform everything unbroken and relatively quickly. It should take you no longer than 10 minutes to get through the movement portion of the workout. You should start out with the pace You think You can hold across all the movements. Naturally, the first few movements will be done a little quicker while You are fresh, but You should try to keep everything in check during these initial rounds. Your breathing, being efficient with your barbell/dumbbell cycling, transitions etc. You shouldn’t need to rest much, if at all during the workout.
For people who will need to break the movements up but still go rx’d, that is ok. Do everything unbroken for as long as possible. You will most likely start breaking things up during the squat snatch/hspu couplet if You start fatiguing. Scale the movements as needed below.

You shouldn’t perform the couplets with the goal of leaving a lot in the tank for the run. You should have it in the back of your mind that You are running at the end and not kill yourselves, but You shouldn’t be so conservative that You can run fast. The mile run will be a brutal transition from the weightlifting/gymnastics. Your legs will feel heavy and your breathing shallow. Have you take the first part of the run to get some of your breathing back (this might never happen!) and for your legs to get used to your running gait. It isn’t going to be a comfortable mile, but You should make sure You don’t just give up once You start running. Aim to finish as strong as You can.
Goal times should be around 16-18 minutes, allowing up to 20 minutes to complete.

All weightlifting movements: Scale load as needed
Hang squat snatch and squat snatch: Scale to a power snatch + overhead squat, or to a power snatch.
Chest to bar pullup: Scale to a regular pullup, then to 2 x jumping chest to bar pullups. No bands today.
Toes to bar: Scale to wall lying hands-to-toes as needed. If You can perform toes to bar in singles with quick breaks, then You should try the rx’d version. Otherwise, scale as needed.
