Today’s workout is in the short-to-moderate time domain. If you can maintain bigger stretches on the L-sit holds and minimize breaks, you should be close to finishing at the 10-minute mark. To stay within that window, find a variation of the L-sit hold that allows you to consistently hold for 10 to 15+ seconds before breaking. If you can hold your option with ease for 45 seconds to 1 minute, try a more challenging option. The box should be a little taller than you want it to be on the jump-overs, and expect your fatigued hip flexors to make jumping a bit more difficult. Consider stepping down from the top of the box. This is not only a safety concern, it is one way to keep yourself moving at a steady pace.
Set rower for 3 intervals of 2 minutes of rowing and 2 minutes of "rest." During the first rest period, perform max reps of 95-lb. thruster; the second rest period, 95-lb. power snatch; the third rest period, 95-lb. squat cleans.

Today’s workout leaves the difficulty up to you. The intention is to sprint through the first two movements and have at least 40 seconds on the rower to accumulate calories. The load of the barbell should be on the lighter side of moderate and allow you to perform 3-5+ touch-and-go reps. Fast singles might be the way to go for some. When in doubt, go lighter and move faster. Once you are done with the snatches, get right into the burpees and try not to stop. Can anyone hold 20 calories or more on the rower? Less-experienced athletes should reduce the load of the barbell and number of burpees to give themselves enough time on the rower. Time to go visit the pain cave.

Today’s workout is a mental and physical test. On paper, this workout creates an ominous thought of too much time on the rower — and that's exactly what’s intended. Adjust the load of the dumbbell so you can perform at least 10 unbroken snatches. Consider holding the dumbbell in the farmers-carry position, the front rack, or on the shoulder. Ultimately, the choice is yours, but the goal is to perform 50 lunges unbroken. Don’t look at the clock — just jump on the rower, push the pace, and get to work. Have fun!
