24:35 slow and controlled throughout. Core moves rx’d but had to scale the hspu to
15-12-9 of wall facing hspu and had to use a band setup which provided 30-35 lbs. assistance at the bottom. Found the feet naturally came off and (sometimes)went back to the wall or sometimes I simply pressed up into free handstand from the bottom. An aggressive shoulder protraction was crucial as was the hollow body position.

Broke HSPU 12-6-3 / 10-5 / 9. Really tried to be deliberate (if not slow). Hip-back extensions unbroken. Did K2E 7-7-7 / 6-5-4 / 5-4. Less intensity but still got the blood flowing today.

Hi everyone! I started CrossFit last May and I love it! It's obvious that we will not be going back to the gym for quite a while so I've made a little make-shift box in my garage...I will not lose 10 months of hard work. The owners let me borrow a few things and I am very grateful! Here's to staying active!

My HSPUs were trash - I could not touch head to mat, but made a point to get as deep as I possibly could, at slow pace. I also touched chest to wall at full extension. Hip-back and K2E both were pretty good, IMHO.

I’m a fan of these “NOT for time” style of workouts as it's a break from intensity while style getting in a great workout. This style of workout also allows for a major focus on quality movement. Here are some scaling thoughts:
Chest-to-Wall handstand push-ups: I like this movement but they are very hard for me. I expect most athletes will spend the bulk of their time on this movement today. If you do NOT have the capacity to do 5+ reps unbroken, consider reducing the reps each round…..doing rounds of 12-9-6 of this movement will still be very challenging for most of us. If you cannot do handstand push-ups then I recommend a box-assisted handstand push-up. This can be a great option as athletes can modify their body position to increase or decrease the difficulty. For example, performing this variation with the legs straight and hips stacked over the hands in the starting position can be very difficult while performing this variation with the knees on the box would be less challenging. If an athlete absolutely cannot get inverted, in any fashion, a pike push-up or a strict dumbbell shoulder press can be an option for today.
Hip-back extension- I consider the volume of this movement to be moderate. Do not sacrifice quality for speed on this movement. This exercise is very demanding when done correctly and most of my athletes will need to scale the movement or reduce the reps. If you have difficulty performing the first round unbroken, consider doing back extensions. For new athletes, performing GHD hip extensions will be the go to for the day.
Strict Knees-to-Elbows: The overall volume is not high but will be demanding, especially if people are actually making contact with their elbows (not triceps/arm pits!) in a strict fashion. I will look to find a challenging variation that allows for 7-10 reps to be completed consecutively. For athletes that cannot do the movement, I will modify to a strict high knee raise to preserve the hanging element of the movement or lying knees to elbows performed in a slow fashion with the athlete gripping a barbell on the floor if I’m not concerned with preserving the hanging function of the movement.
Limited Equipment Options: This workout is relatively easy to modify at home. Here are some thoughts below:
Chest-to-Wall HSPU: The same recommendations from the notes above apply here. If you don’t have a box for HSPU you can use a chair or some sort of bench.
Hip-back extensions: This movement is tough to replicate without a GHD. My first recommendation is to do some sort of a good morning. This can be with a barbell, holding a dumbbell, or even holding a loaded bag. If there is no load available consider doing arch ups on the floor, but I would double the reps per round.
Strict KTE: If you do not have anything to hang from I recommend a lying knee to elbow at a slow tempo or a controlled v-up.

Would it not make more sense in these times to provide no/very little equipment workouts?
SLOWLY is the name of the game today. These days are fantastic. They can be the most productive they of your week. Spine hold, spine extension, and spine flexion, this is an excellent core workout. Scaling today is different for everybody. Your focus is on the skill. You want to find a modification that allows you to express the function of the movement to the best of your abilities. You want to be right on the edge of your capacity, but not over. If you have handstand push-ups but not when you face the wall, today work on the negative aspect of this movement, and focus on the tripod position and having a very stacked body. If you don't have handstand push-ups, then box or pike push-ups will be your best option here. You can work the negative or the full movement depending if your capacity. The hip-back extension is a movement that most athletes will be able to complete. It requires diligence more than skill. Commit to it and commit to working it slowly. If you don't have a GHD or cannot work up a contraption, then perform some rolling waves (video below). Jefferson curls and good morning are good options here too. For the knees to elbows, all you need to do is figure out the height you can control. If you are swinging on the bar, that means no control. So find that sweet spot and work it so slow. Have fun and work that spine.
Globo/Home scale: If you can get flat on a wall to do chest on wall HSPU do it. If not, do perfect negative pike HSPU (or scale to a tempo pushup). For the hip/back extensions, split them into slow and controlled good mornings with a pvc pipe or broomstick contacting the back of the head, back, and butt AND slow and controlled supermans (unless you're lucky to have a GHD or roman chair). Complete them 21 good mornings, 21 supermans, 15, 15, and 9,9. If you don't have a pullup bar or the setup doesn't allow for it, sub slow and controlled v-ups for the knee to elbows.

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
Knowing how to roll out of a handstand is a really good skill to have, in my opinion, because it gives us an exit strategy. When we have an exit strategy they we feel safe. And when we feel safe, in terms of movement, that allows us to fall. Falling is important to running, Olympic lifts, kipping, burpees, and handstand walks. Doing any of those movements with the fear of falling makes the movement a lot more energy-consuming. So back to these wall-facing hspu, if you know how to roll out from a handstand, these will be a great way to work on position, if not then you'll probably end up broken in the midline. Practice those rolls!
PURPOSE
Strength from the waist-up.
NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE
Complete as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes of:
10 knees to elbows
20 squats
:30 handstand hold
TRAINING SCALE
As is.
PRACTICE SCALE
Make hspu freestanding, maybe do GHD sit-ups instead of knees to elbows, seeing as it requires more coordination.
UMBRIDGE SCALE (assuming no equipment)
5:00, 3:00, 1:00 practice of each:
Some kind of handstand progression
Hollow hold/arch hold on ground
Tuck-ups
INJURY SCALE
If you have an upper-body injury, try the Umbridge Scale except maybe pistols instead of hspu. If you have a back/hips injury, then I'd try pull-ups, plank, any as much of a squat variation as you can without hurting.
WARMUP
Anything you want to practice
