Swim leisurely for thirty minutes. Make this relaxing. If you're not a strong swimmer
this may be more difficult. In that case, you need the exposure.
If you are tempted to do more, either you've been loafing or you're just tuning in.
This is a much-needed break for the athletes in synch with the program.
Scaling:
If you are a proficient swimmer, perform this workout as prescribed. If you are an inexperienced swimmer, reduce the distance. Strive to complete each swim in approximately 2 minutes. Spend the warm-up practicing a push-up option that allows you to complete at least 10 consecutive reps. Before heading to the water, spend time watching instructional swimming videos.

Scaling:
In today’s gymnastics couplet, you can choose your own adventure — break the two exercises up and alternate between them however you need. Expect muscle fatigue to be a factor in this workout. Advanced athletes can try to maintain larger sets on the bar muscle-ups, while less-experienced athletes may choose to break the two movements into sets that minimize fatigue and allow for minimal rest. Breaks and rest periods are inevitable, however, aim to avoid hitting failure on either movement.
Intermediate option:
For time:
70 burpees to a target (6 inches above your reach)
35 chest-to-bar pull-ups
Alternate and break the two exercises up into as many sets as needed to complete the workout as quickly as possible.

For time:
50 burpees
25 jumping pull-ups
Alternate and break the two exercises up into as many sets as needed to complete the workout as quickly as possible.

Choose a running distance that can be completed in approximately 12 minutes. Less- experienced swimmers should consider planning a brief rest interval during the swim. More- experienced athletes should strive to sustain a steady pace throughout the workout. If you do not have access to a pool, ocean, or lake, sub for a bike of similar duration, about 3 miles.
