3 rounds for time of:
15 shoulder-to-overheads
30 burpee box jump-overs

♀ 95-lb barbell and a 20-inch box
♂ 135-lb barbell and a 24-inch box

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a grind with a bit of movement redundancy. Don’t expect this workout to be blazing fast; instead, think of this effort as smooth and steady. The loading of the barbell should be moderate. Some will be able to perform unbroken sets, while others should aim to break no more than once. For the shoulder-to-overheads, choose push presses or push jerks. The push press will have an increased cycle time, while the push jerk will help produce more reps. And the burpee box jump-overs are a marathon, not a sprint.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the reps of the burpee box jump-overs.

To reduce the complexity of the shoulder-to-overheads, consider using a pair of dumbbells or performing shoulder presses at a reduced load. For the burpee box jump-overs, reduce the height of the box or perform burpee box step-overs.

In case of injury or limitation, for the shoulder-to-overheads, consider single-dumbbell shoulder presses or push presses. For the burpee box jump-overs, perform up-downs, plus box step-overs. If necessary, eliminate the box and perform up-downs.

Intermediate option:
3 rounds for time of:
15 shoulder-to-overheads
20 burpee box jump-overs

♀ 65-lb barbell and a 20-inch box

♀ 125 lb
♂ 185 lb

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a triplet with a descending rep scheme. The loading of the barbell should be moderate to heavy. Choose a weight that allows you to complete the reps in three sets or fewer. Push the pace on the rower and manage your reps on the wall walks. Breathe between reps and don’t burn out in the first set.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the distance on the rower.

To reduce the complexity of the hang squat cleans, use a pair of dumbbells or consider performing a hang power clean, plus a front squat for each rep. For the wall walks, reduce the range of motion by only taking 1-3 steps toward the wall.

In case of injury or limitation, for the row, perform a 600/400/200-meter run or 500/900/1,300-meter Echo bike. For the hang squat cleans, consider hang medicine-ball cleans or kettlebell swings, plus a goblet squat. For the wall walks, perform inchworms, plus a push-up for each rep.

15 bench presses

♀ 95 lb
♂ 135 lb

Compare to 230419.

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a classic combination of pushing and pulling movement functions. In theory, neither movement should affect the other. The only question is, how fast can you row without needing too much rest before lifting the barbell? The loading of the barbell should be on the lighter side of moderate. This should allow you to perform consistent sets of 10 or more reps. As always with the bench press, if you are performing this workout by yourself or no one is around to help, be cautious of pushing to failure — always keep a few reps left in the tank.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the distance on the rower.

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

In case of injury or limitation, substitute a 400-meter run or 1,250-meter Echo bike. For the bench presses, perform single-arm dumbbell bench presses or push-ups.

Intermediate option:
5 rounds for time of:
500-meter row

Complete as many reps as possible in 10 minutes of:
1 wall walk
1 clean and jerk

After each round, add 1 rep to the wall walks and 10 lb to the barbell until time expires.

♀ 145-lb barbell
♂ 205-lb barbell

Post reps to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is an ascending ladder of wall walks, coupled with increased loading in the clean and jerk. After each round, add 1 rep to the wall walks and 10 lb to the barbell until time expires. Your goal should be to complete 4-7 rounds. If you hit the workout as prescribed, your seventh round would be 7 wall walks and 1 clean and jerk at 265 lb. Adjust your loading and weight jumps according to the intended stimulus. Expect the wall walks to fatigue the shoulders and midline. This will ultimately make the jerk more challenging, so when moving through the workout, take your time on your lifts and don’t pick up the bar until you are confident.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the reps of the wall walks.

To reduce the complexity of the wall walks, reduce the range of motion. Consider only taking 2-4 steps back toward the wall. For the clean and jerks, perform hang cleans and push presses.

In case of injury or limitation, for the wall walks, consider performing inchworms with your feet on the floor or elevated on a box. For the clean and jerks, perform dumbbell clean and jerks. If there is an overhead limitation, perform cleans with no jerk.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many reps as possible in 10 minutes of:
1 partial wall walk (2 steps toward the wall)
1 clean and jerk

After each round, add 1 rep to the wall walks and 10 lb to the barbell until time expires.

Scaling:
Reduce the load and reps. If this is your first time performing this workout, consider cutting the workout in half or giving yourself 30 minutes to complete as many step-ups as possible.

To reduce the complexity of the step-ups, reduce the height of the box.

In case of injury or limitation, perform unweighted step-ups.

12 back squats
120 double-unders

♀ 125-lb barbell
♂ 185-lb barbell

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a spicy triplet with a moderately loaded barbell. If available, take the barbell from a rack and try to complete your reps unbroken in each set. These may be slow and challenging, which is the intended stimulus. If the weight is relatively light for you, move more quickly, but don’t sacrifice form. Choose options for all three movements that allow you to complete a single round in 5 minutes or less.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the reps or height of the rope climb. Reduce the reps of the jump rope.

To reduce the complexity of the rope climbs, reduce the height of the climb. For the double-unders, practice the movement for no more than 2 minutes or perform single-unders.

In case of injury or limitation, for the double-unders, consider performing lateral line hops or penguin taps. For the rope climbs, perform pull-to-stands, towel pull-ups, or strict pull-ups. For the back squats, perform box squats to a target that allows for a pain-free range of motion, goblet squats, or air squats.

12/15-calorie row
10 push jerks

♀ 95-lb barbell
♂ 135-lb barbell

Post rounds and reps to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is meant to be a pushing and pulling sprint, back and forth between the two movements. The calories on the rower are meant to be completed in a minute or less and the push jerks should be completed in unbroken sets for most of your rounds. This means the loading of the barbell should be light to moderate. The duration of this workout isn’t very long, so push the pace from the start and hold on.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the calories on the rower.

To reduce the complexity of the push jerks, perform push presses.

In case of injury or limitation, for the push jerks, perform dumbbell push jerks (rack-position limitation), shoulder presses, or even push-ups to eliminate the loading. For the calories, use any machine available.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 10 minutes of:

Compare to 250513.

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 so you can 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.

For time:
50 power cleans

♀ 125 lb
♂ 185 lb

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is straightforward — simply move through the power cleans as quickly as possible. The loading of the barbell is meant to be moderate to heavy. This means some may choose to perform singles for all their reps, while others may be able to complete several sets of touch-and-go reps. Either way, a good goal is aiming to complete 5 reps or more per minute. When you are taking a break, don’t let that bar sit there for too long; get your hands back on the bar quickly.

Scaling:
Reduce the load of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the power clean, perform a hang power clean or consider using dumbbells.

In case of injury or limitation, perform a sumo deadlift high pull or medicine-ball clean if there is a limitation with the rack position.

Intermediate option:

Complete as many reps as possible in 15 minutes of:
3 wall-ball shots
3 lateral burpees over the medicine ball
3-second L-sit hold

After each round, add 3 reps to the wall-ball shots and burpees, and add 3 seconds to the L-sit holds until time expires.

♀ 14-lb medicine ball to a 9-foot target
♂ 20-lb medicine ball to a 10-foot target

Post rounds and reps completed.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today is a triplet of increasing repetitions and seconds. Expect the first few rounds to go quickly, and then slow down as the reps reach double digits. Use a weight for the medicine ball you can perform mostly unbroken. The burpees over the medicine ball are an added challenge because of the height of the ball, so make a conscious effort to jump a little higher than you normally would. On the L-sit hold, choose a variation that allows you to consistently hold for at least 10 seconds. What you perform your L-sit holds on is totally up to you — dumbbells, parallettes, boxes, or whatever you have available.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the medicine ball. Reduce the number of reps you increase each round by. Consider increasing by 1 or 2, instead of 3.

To reduce the complexity of the wall-ball shots, reduce the height of the target. For the burpees, step over the medicine ball or perform a regular burpee. For the L-sit hold, hold one leg straight with the other bent, or bend both legs.

In case of injury or limitation, for the wall-ball shots, perform medicine-ball front squats for an overhead limitation, or medicine-ball push presses for a squatting limitation. For the burpees, perform up-downs. For the L-sit holds, perform seated leg-raise holds with one or both legs.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many reps as possible in 15 minutes of:
3 wall-ball shots
3 lateral burpees over the medicine ball
3-second L-sit hold, both legs bent

After each round, add 3 reps to the wall-ball shots and burpees, and add 3 seconds to the L-sit holds until time expires.

♀ 10-lb medicine ball to a 9-foot target

21-18-15-12-9-6-3 reps for time of:
Ring dips

After each set, complete 3 squat snatches.

♀ 95 lb
♂ 135 lb

Post times to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a couplet with some movement interference. Expect the pressing of the ring dips and the lockout of the squat snatches to significantly tax the shoulders, as well as the compounding fatigue of the hip flexors from kipping the dips and the squat of the snatch. The loading of the barbell is meant to be moderate. Some may be able to perform touch-and-go reps, while it is also perfectly acceptable to perform 3 quick singles. Choose an option for the ring dips that allows you to consistently perform sets of 5 or more reps.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the reps of the ring dips.

To reduce the complexity of the ring dips, perform jumping ring dips or foot-assisted ring dips. Perform hang squat snatches or hang power snatches, plus an overhead squat in place of the squat snatch if needed.

In case of injury or limitation, for the ring dips, perform bench/box dips, push-ups, or dumbbell shoulder presses. For the squat snatches, perform power snatches if there is a squatting limitation. You may also consider power snatches, plus an overhead lunge.

Intermediate option:
12-10-8-6-4-2 reps for time of:

♀ 125 lb
♂ 185 lb

Post rounds and reps to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout combines a heavier lift with a sprinkle of higher-skill gymnastics. This sprinkle should allow you to keep moving through your rounds with minimal reduction in pace. The loading on the barbell is meant to be moderate to heavy. Some may be able to perform a few touch-and-go reps, while others work to maintain quick singles. Choose options that allow you to complete at least 5 rounds.

Scaling:
Reduce the load of the barbell. Reduce the reps on the jump rope.

To reduce the complexity of the power clean, perform a hang power clean. To scale the handstand walks, complete a half circle around a box with your feet on the box (walking laterally around the box). You can also scale the handstand walk to 3 inchworms or bear crawls. For the double-unders, practice the movement for 30 seconds or perform single-unders.

In case of injury or limitation, for the power cleans, consider medicine-ball or dumbbell power cleans. For the handstand walks, consider alternating dumbbell shoulder presses or shoulder taps in a plank hold. Consider performing jumping jacks, penguin taps, or alternating toe taps on a low box in place of the double-unders.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 10 minutes of:
3 power cleans

Every minute on the minute for 12 minutes, complete:
3 front squats

Score is total load lifted.

Post loads to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is an opportunity to lift a heavy load relative to your capacity. Athletes who know their best front squat should aim to start this workout at about 60%, then increase the loading across as many sets as possible. Advanced athletes should consider sticking with a challenging weight and holding across all 12 sets. Newer athletes should focus on developing consistently sound mechanics before adding weight. After completing the 3 reps, rack the barbell and rest with the remaining time.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the front squat, consider adjusting your grip on the barbell. You could try resting the barbell on the shoulders and placing your hands on opposite shoulders, or using straps to eliminate the difficulty of the rack position. Another option is to use a pair of dumbbells.

In case of injury or limitation, consider performing a back squat or a dumbbell goblet squat.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Beginner option:
Same as Rx’d.

Coaching cues:
In the front squat, find a target to drive your elbows toward as you are completing your reps. This target should be above your neutral gaze and challenge you to keep your triceps parallel to the ground.

3 rounds for time of:
400-meter run
30 GHD sit-ups
100-foot front-rack walking lunge

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a bit of a midline mash-up. Expect the GHD sit-ups and the front-rack lunges to conflict with one another and make running more challenging. Aim to complete this workout in about 20 minutes or less. Choose a weight for the lunges that allows you to complete the distance in 2 sets or less in each round. If you are not familiar with the GHD sit-up or are not consistently performing the movement, reduce the reps and range of motion.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the reps of the GHD sit-ups. Reduce the distance of the run and the front-rack lunge.

To reduce the complexity of the GHD sit-ups, limit the range of motion. For the front-rack lunges, consider using a pair of dumbbells to help minimize issues with the rack position.

In case of injury or limitation, for the run, complete 900/1,250 meters on the Echo bike, or 400/500 meters on the rower or ski erg. For the GHD sit-ups, perform V-ups or sit-ups. For the front-rack lunge, perform this movement with no weight or consider a low box step-up.

Intermediate option:

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a chipper. Aim to complete this effort in 15 minutes or less. The loading of the barbell should be light-to-moderate for the deadlifts and moderate-to-heavy for the squat cleans. This means you should be able to consistently perform larger chunks of reps on the deadlifts and singles for the squat cleans. Manage your pace on the rower in anticipation of the final two movements. Don’t push too hard on the rower and end up putting yourself in a “hole” for the remainder of the workout.

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

To reduce the complexity of deadlifts, perform sumo deadlifts. This will reduce the difficulty in navigating the knees. For the pull-ups, reduce the range of motion. For the squat cleans, consider hang squat cleans or a power cleans.

In case of injury or limitation, for the deadlifts, consider kettlebell sumo deadlifts or unloaded good mornings. For the pull-ups, consider ring rows. For the squat cleans, consider dumbbell squat cleans or dumbbell power cleans if there is a squat limitation. For the row, use whatever machine is available to perform the calories.

In honor of Petty Officer 1st Class Jeff Taylor, 30, of Midway, West Virginia, who was killed on June 28, 2005, while conducting combat operations in the vicinity of Asadabad, Afghanistan, in Kumar Province. He is survived by his father, John; mother, Carrie; and wife, Erin.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout can be polarizing, depending on your strengths and weaknesses. Regardless, the push-up will arguably be the most difficult reps you have ever attempted. That said, for most, this is a workout that requires patience and perseverance. Expect to experience muscular fatigue rather than cardio-respiratory fatigue. When dealing with muscular fatigue, you must rest long enough for your muscles to recover before you continue. Manage your reps to allow for minimal rest during breaks and minimize the potential for muscular failure. If you have completed this workout in the past, look back at your previous effort to help navigate today’s effort.

Scaling:
Reduce the reps of each movement.

To reduce the complexity of the handstand push-up, perform pike push-ups. For the ring dips, perform jumping or banded ring dips. For the push-ups, perform from the knees.

In case of injury or limitation, for the handstand push-ups, perform seated dumbbell shoulder presses. For the ring dips, perform foot-assisted ring dips or straight bar dips. For the push-ups, perform these with your hands on an elevated surface like a 30-inch box.

Intermediate option:
21-15-9 reps for time of:
Pike push-ups
Jumping ring dips
Push-ups

Beginner option:
15-12-9 reps for time of:
Seated dumbbell shoulder press
Foot-assisted ring dips
Push-ups from the knees

♀ 15-lb dumbbell
♂ 20-lb dumbbell

♀ 95-lb barbell
♂ 135-lb barbell

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout combines challenging gymnastics elements with a moderate weightlifting movement. As your midline muscles fatigue from the L-sit holds, expect the rope climbs and the snatches to become more difficult. Choose a weight for the barbell that allows you to maintain a cadence of 6 or more reps per minute. Your best strategy on the snatches will be quick singles. Snatches may be performed as a power or squat variation. On the L-sit holds, choose an option that allows you to consistently hold for 10 seconds or more. Manage the pace of the rope climbs.

Scaling:
Reduce the duration of the L-sit holds. Reduce the number of reps for the rope climbs. Reduce the loading of the snatches.

To reduce the complexity of the L-sit holds, bend one leg or tuck both knees in toward the chest. For the legless rope climbs, reduce height or perform legged rope climbs. For the rope climbs, reduce the height or perform 3 strict pull-ups per rope climb. For the snatches, consider performing hang snatches.

In case of injury or limitation, for the L-sit holds, perform plank holds. For the rope climbs, perform pull-to-stands or ring rows. For the snatches, perform kettlebell swings or dumbbell snatches. If necessary, perform cleans if there is an overhead limitation.

Intermediate option:

Clean and jerk 2-2-2-2-2 reps

Post loads to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a classic lifting day. Depending on how you feel, use today as an opportunity to work on technique or to lift something relatively heavy. The repetitions in each set do not have to be touch-and-go. You may regrip and take no more than 10 seconds to complete the second lift. The clean in today’s effort can be performed as a power or squat variation. Newer athletes should focus on developing consistently sound mechanics before adding weight.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the movements, consider performing hang power or hang squat cleans. For the jerk portion of the movement, consider push presses.

In case of injury or limitation, perform dumbbell clean and jerks. If there is an overhead limitation, perform only the clean portion of the movement.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Beginner option:
Clean and jerk 4-4-4-4-4 reps

Coaching cues:
In the jerk, focus on keeping the elbows high as you perform the dip and drive. Higher elbows will help keep the torso vertical and ensure the barbell travels in a more straight path overhead.

♀ 20-lb medicine ball to a 9-foot target
♂ 30-lb medicine ball to a 10-foot target

Post total wall-ball-shot reps to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout will test your mental fortitude. How many wall-ball shots can you perform before you mentally and physically need a break? Just when you think you are ready to stop, remember, you can always do one more rep. To get the most out of the effort, choose a load that allows you to perform at least 25 repetitions in each set. As an added challenge, push the pace on the rower. This will make for an extra special time.

Scaling:
Reduce the load of the medicine ball. Reduce the distance on the rower.

To reduce the complexity of the wall-ball shots, perform dumbbell thrusters with a light pair of dumbbells.

In case of an injury or limitation, for the wall-ball shots, perform medicine-ball front squats (overhead limitation) or medicine-ball push presses (squat limitation). For the row, perform 1,250 meters on the Echo bike, 400-meter run, or 500 meters on the ski erg.

Intermediate option:
Every 10 minutes for 30 minutes:
500-meter row

Bench press 5-5-3-3-3-1-1-1-1 reps

Post loads to comments.

Compare to 241028.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today is a heavy lifting day. Remember that “heavy” is relative to each athlete's physical and psychological tolerances. In other words, heavy is going to be different for each athlete. Most athletes can complete this lifting day as prescribed. Newer athletes should start light, focus on mechanics, and slowly add weight as they are comfortable.

Considering the heavy loading of the barbell, you are encouraged to find a spotter. However, if you are not able to find a spotter, use some type of guard rails or simply reduce the load to something you can manage without a spotter.

Scaling:
Reduce the load.

To reduce the complexity of the bench press, consider performing dumbbell bench presses.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider performing dumbbell floor presses, weighted push-ups, or push-ups.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Beginner option:
Same as Rx’d.

Coaching cues:
Be sure your feet are firmly planted on the ground. This will enable you to drive through your heels and get the lower body involved in your lifts.

12-9-6 reps for time of:
Squat cleans
Ring muscle-ups

♀ 95 lb
♂ 135 lb

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a play on the benchmark workout Amanda — two higher-skill movements with slightly more reps than the original workout. The loading on the squat cleans should be moderate. Some athletes may be able to maintain touch-and-go reps, while others may choose to perform quick singles. On the ring muscle-ups, manage your reps and don’t push to failure. Instead, break the sets into manageable reps that allow you to stay fresh and minimize long-winded breaks.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the repetitions of the muscle-ups.

To reduce the complexity of the squat cleans, consider hang squat cleans or perform the movement with a pair of dumbbells. For the muscle-ups, consider jumping muscle-ups or low-ring muscle-up transitions.

In case of an injury or limitation, perform power or hang power cleans. Consider single dumbbell options, as well. For the ring muscle-ups, perform ring rows or foot-assisted strict pull-ups.

Intermediate option:
For time:
12-9-6 squat cleans
5-4-3 ring muscle-ups

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Beginner option:
12-9-6 reps for time of:
Squat cleans
Low-ring muscle-up transitions

♀ 35 lb

Fran

21-15-9 reps for time of:
Thrusters
Pull-ups

♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb

Compare to 240325.

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
If you have never completed Fran before, it is intended to be a sprint. Experienced athletes should go hard and shoot for a PR. Choose a load for the thrusters that allows you to complete at least 15 unbroken reps. Select a pull-up option that allows you to complete each round with minimal rest. All athletes should aim to finish the workout in 10 minutes or less. However, if you would like to attempt the prescribed workout, knowing it's going to take you longer, go for it. As long as you maintain form and technique, this is a great opportunity to establish a time. Intermediate and beginner athletes should establish a goal for this workout and create a plan for breaking up the thrusters and/or pull-ups as necessary.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the reps of the pull-ups.

To reduce the complexity of the pull-ups, consider jumping pull-ups or ring rows.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider front squats (overhead limitation) or push presses (squatting limitation) in place of the thrusters. For the pull-ups, consider one-arm ring rows or dumbbell rows.

Intermediate option:
For time:
21-15-9 thrusters
12-9-6 pull-ups

♀ 55 lb
♂ 75 lb

Beginner option:

Deadlift 5-5-3-3-3-1-1-1-1 reps

Compare to 220531 and similar 250429.

Post loads to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today is a heavy day. As always, heavy is relative to each athlete's capacity and experience. You will benefit from today's effort if you work to your limits. Look back at your previous heavy deadlift efforts to help navigate today’s loading. Experienced athletes should build in load and plan to go as heavy as possible across all sets. Newer athletes should start light, focus on mechanics, and slowly add weight as they are comfortable.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell as needed to maintain consistently sound mechanics. If you are unable to achieve a sound setup with the barbell on the floor, consider lifting from an elevated surface.

To adjust the complexity of the lift, consider performing a sumo deadlift, or deadlift with a pair of kettlebells or dumbbells.

In case of an injury or limitation, consider performing good mornings or GHD hip extensions.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Beginner option:
Same as Rx’d.

Coaching cues:
As you set up to pull the barbell off the floor, pull the “slack” out of your arms by trying to “break” the barbell across your shins.

♂ 185-lb barbell and 24-inch box

Post total back squat reps to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
In today’s workout, expect the plank holds and box jumps to have a significant effect on the back squats at the end of the workout. The plank hold will challenge your midline, while the box jumps will get the legs nice and tired. Perform the plank holds on the forearms or the hands (your choice). Choose options for the plank holds and box jumps that allow you to get to the back squats with at least 2 minutes to perform squats. Then, once you have the barbell on your back, challenge yourself not to put the bar down until time expires.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the height of the box jump-overs. Reduce the duration of the plank holds.

To reduce the complexity of the plank holds, perform from the knees. For the box jump-overs, perform box step-up overs. For the back squats, consider dumbbell or kettlebell goblet squats.

In case of an injury or limitation, perform plank holds with your hands on a 24- or 30-inch box. For the back squats, perform air squats or lunges.

Every time you drop the bar, complete 20/30 calories on the Echo bike.

♀ 125 lb
♂ 185 lb

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a challenge. How long can you hang on to the barbell before you have to break and accept the “penalty”? Choose a weight that allows you to complete consistent sets of 10 or more repetitions. Challenge yourself with the loading, but don’t make the workout impossible. Keep in mind that the bike is only going to make each set more difficult. Don’t dig yourself a hole by pushing the pace too hard on the bike. Bigger sets on the barbell is more important.

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

To reduce the complexity of the front squats, consider using a pair of dumbbells if there are any front-rack limitations.

In case of an injury or limitation, perform back squats, goblet squats, or air squats in place of the front squats. For the calories on the bike, use any machine available.

Intermediate option:
For time:
50 front squats

Every time you drop the bar, complete 15/20 calories on the Echo bike.

Army Sgt. 1st Class Jamie Nicholas, Army Sgt. 1st Class Gary Vasquez, and Army Capt. Richard Cliff, Jr., assigned to the 1st Battalion, 7th Special Forces Group in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, died Sept. 29, 2008, in Yakhchal, Afghanistan, from wounds sustained when their vehicle encountered an improvised explosive device during mounted operations.

Stimulus and Strategy:
This Hero workout will test cardiorespiratory endurance and stamina, where completing 3 or more rounds is a general guideline to follow. Since this is a Hero workout, feel free to attempt it as prescribed, even if 3 rounds may not be within reach. The air squats can be performed quickly, while the burpees and pull-ups may need some pacing to be able to complete them at a consistent pace. The sandbag is intended to be light so 22 reps can be completed with minimal rest between each.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the sandbag. Reduce the reps of the movements. Reduce the distance of the run.

To reduce the complexity of the burpees, perform up-downs. For the pull-ups, consider performing jumping pull-ups or ring rows. For the sandbag ground-to-over-the-shoulders, perform dumbbell power cleans, hang power cleans, or even light medicine-ball cleans over the shoulder

In case of injury or limitation, perform a 1,750/2,500-meter Echo bike or 800/1,000-meter row in place of the 722-meter run. For the air squats, consider squatting to a target that allows for a pain-free range of motion.

Stimulus and Strategy:
This chipper combines the classic benchmark workout Grace, alongside 600 total meters of running. This is intended to be a short effort with a fast pace in mind. The load on the clean and jerks is intended to be moderate and allow for some small unbroken sets combined with consistent singles performed with minimal rest between reps. Advanced athletes can storm through this workout at a blistering pace and attempt to complete it in around 5-6 minutes. Can anyone complete this in sub-5 minutes?

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell. Reduce the distance of each run.

To reduce the complexity of the clean and jerk, consider performing a hang clean and jerk with a barbell or a pair of dumbbells.

In case of injury or limitation, for the 400-meter run, perform 400/500 meters on the rower or ski erg, or 900/1,250 meters on the Echo bike. For the 200-meter run, perform 200/250 meters on the rower or ski erg, or 500/700 meters on the Echo bike. For the clean and jerks, if there is an overhead limitation, perform a power clean only. If there is a wrist limitation, use one or two dumbbells.

Today’s workout is four sprint-style efforts. The barbell movements are progressive and build on the previous set as the final set is a combination of the three sets prior. The loading of the barbell should be on the lighter side. Push to complete the barbell movements as quickly as possible to give yourself more time on the bike.

Scaling:
Reduce the load of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the barbell movements, perform each movement with a single dumbbell or pair of dumbbells.

In case of an injury or limitation, perform the calories on any machine available. If you have a squatting limitation, perform deadlifts, push presses, hang power cleans, and hang power clean and jerks (instead of the movements in the workout).

Today’s workout is a classic CrossFit benchmark and is meant to be completed relatively quickly. The goal is to complete the work in 10 minutes or less. The cleans can be performed as either squat cleans or power cleans. Decide which technique you’ll use before you start, then stick with it. If you have completed this workout in the past, use your previous score to help you navigate today’s effort.

Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the barbell.

To reduce the complexity of the ring dips, consider jumping ring dips or foot-assisted ring dips. For the cleans, perform hang power cleans.

In case of injury or limitation, perform single-dumbbell cleans. For the ring dips, consider push-ups or bench/box dips.
