Scaling:
If choosing Test 1, modify the movements and reduce the dumbbell load to something you can perform quickly and unbroken. This workout is a sprint, and should be scaled to allow for a quick, all-out effort.
If choosing Test 2, be careful of the high volume of each exercise, especially with the GHD. Athletes without exposure to the GHD should drastically reduce the volume. Overall this workout is fairly long, so choose modifications that are still challenging, and plan on having to break each exercise multiple sets.
Intermediate Option:
3 rounds of:
10 kipping handstand push-ups
10 dumbbell hang power cleans
30 double-unders
Scaling:
Reduce the load of the snatches to a weight that is challenging but allows you to complete at least 10 reps unbroken when fresh. Beginners should also scale the volume.
For time:
2,000-m row
60-m handstand walk
5 legless rope climbs, 15 ft.
1,000-m row
40-m handstand walk
4 legless rope climbs, 15 ft.
500-m row
20-m handstand walk
3 legless rope climbs, 15 ft.
