Today is a hybrid effort from several training modalities and tough!!
After a warm-up:
Move through the following with a 60 second break between exercises.
Row 500 meters for a record time.
Squat 20 RM weight 20 reps (20 RM is a weight you can squat 20 reps but not 21.)
Pull-up for PR (shoot for personal best)
Deadlift 10 RM weight 10 reps
Dips for PR (shoot for personal best)
Rest 10 minutes
Move through the following with a 2-minute break between exercises.
Row 500 meters match first effort
Squat same weight for twenty reps
Pull-ups for same count as first set
Deadlift same weight for 10 reps
Dips for same count as first set
Rest 10 minutes
Move through the following with a 3-minute break between exercises.
Row 500 meters match first effort
Squat same weight for twenty reps
Pull-ups for same count as first set
Deadlift same weight for 10 reps
Dips for same count as first set

The idea today is to strive to match the performance of the first pass on the second and third.

Scaling:
Welcome to the third workout of the 2024 CrossFit Games Quarterfinals! This workout challenges upper-body gymnastics endurance and stamina. While push-pull combos usually feel complementary, expect shoulder fatigue from the different handstand push-up variations to make the rope climbs and muscle-ups significantly more challenging. To find success in this workout, break up each movement into smaller sets than you need to unless you're an elite-level competitor. Advanced athletes should perform large sets early, but not at the expense of staying consistent during the muscle-ups at the end. Beginner athletes should treat this workout like a 15-minute AMRAP. Move smoothly through the first 10 minutes, then push hard to finish faster in the final 5 minutes. This should allow most athletes to stay consistent and avoid burning out toward the end.
