Post reps to comments.

Scaling:
Today’s workout is a sprint. The goal is to complete the run in 2:30-4:30. Expect your posterior chain to be lit up. Time is running out, so keep breaks brief — no more than a few breaths before getting back to work. Hold yourself accountable to range-of-motion standards on the GHD. Scaling is encouraged, but if you’re hitting this as prescribed, watch the video resource carefully to be sure your movement is sound.

Intermediate option:
On a 6-minute clock, complete:

600-meter run
Max-reps GHD hip extensions in the remaining time.

Beginner option:
On a 6-minute clock, complete:

400-meter run
Accumulate max time in a GHD Superman hold in the remaining time.

2:30 on run, put treadmill at 12mph. Didn’t have a legit ghd so I used my gyms version of the ghd, probably made the reps easier. 69 reps for back extensions.

Lynchburg CG subs. Did 600m run then max reps stiff leg DL at 80lbs, 49 total. Still working back so stayed light. Run was faster than expected at 2:35, probably should have done the 800.

I don't understand this workout. is it just 6min or I have to complete several sircles.

it's only 6 min. But they may still utterly destroy us if we are willing to sell our soul on the run! I guess today's goal is intensity and we should probably still breath hard 5-10min after the workout to hit the stimulus

Globo wod: subs for runs are 1000m row or 55 calories assault or echo bike. If you are using a conventional treadmill use a slight incline. For back extensions if your gym doesn't have a GHD machine or Roman chair you can use the back extension apparatus, or you can create one by setting heavy dumbbells near a barbell in a rack (or Smith Machine bar), using a towel or squat pad, doing back extensions. You may need to use a weight plate or light dumbbells to get a similar effect to GHD back extensions. Otherwise barbell good mornings or supermans are good subs.
