Scaling:
Today’s workout is meant to be a grind. The load of the ruck should allow you to complete at least 15-20 unbroken reps of the ground-to-overheads and to keep moving on each of the rucks. Newer athletes should move at a march pace and reduce the distance to complete each ruck in no more than 11 minutes. If you’re more experienced, feel free to pick up the pace.

Scaling:
Today’s chipper-style workout challenges you to get through the first three exercises before you can earn a score. If you want more time with the box step-ups, you need to move quickly. Athletes should reduce the distance of the ruck, the difficulty of the toes-to-bars, and the load of the push jerks to give themselves at least 90 seconds to perform max reps of the box step-ups with the ruck. Some athletes could have several minutes, but that means they need to be moving! Athletes should start with the ruck, take it off for the toes-to-bars and push jerks, and then put the ruck back on for the box step-ups.

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.
