Scaling:
Today’s workout is a twist on the classic benchmark workout, Nancy. The weight starts heavy, but as the reps increase, the weight decreases. We’ll start with the barbell on the ground, which means you must be able to safely snatch it — reduce the load if this is not possible as written. The first barbell should be challenging, but you should be able to hold it overhead for an unbroken set. Some athletes may be able to go unbroken in the remaining sets — if you have to break, it should only be once. Keep the runs to 2:15 or less.

Scaling:
This interval workout is about pushing hard for 3 minutes, then maximizing your recovery to maintain your output across all sets. The goal is to finish the row around 2 minutes, with some pushing closer to 1:45 or under. Once the 8 burpees are complete, you should have 45 seconds to 1 minute to accumulate dumbbell snatches.
There are a couple of goals for this workout:
Find the maximum pace on the rower that allows you to get off and get straight to work on the burpees.
Practice fast transitions between movements.
Build capacity toward bigger sets of alternating dumbbell snatches.
Focus on recovery each round. With the 1:1 work-to-rest ratio, aim to maintain your output across all the rounds.
With the forced rest, push hard today and dare to hold on to the dumbbell until you hear the clock!
