Scaling:
Expect this workout to be a grind and taxing on your grip. Carry the dumbbells however you’d like on the weighted lunges — consider the front-rack position, resting the dumbbells on the shoulders, or the farmers-carry position as potential options. Reduce the dumbbell load to move with limited rest on both movements. If you don’t have dumbbells or kettlebells available, load the lunges and carries with a 30/45-lb ruck or backpack. There are no excuses. If possible, consider performing this workout on a 400-meter track.

Scaling:
Reduce the weight on the deadlift. If you are unable to hold a handstand, modify the handstand walk and spend that portion practicing by putting weight on your hands — i.e., plank hold, bear crawl, wall walk, or hold a weight overhead.
