Scaling:
Today’s triplet has a short to moderate time domain, depending on your ability to manage your strict gymnastics strength and stamina. Perform this workout as prescribed if you can complete at least 3 unbroken strict chest-to-bar pull-ups and 5-7 hand-release push-ups without deviation of your midline (aka “snaking” your push-ups). The loading of the lunges in this workout should be light enough that you can perform each round unbroken. Don’t stop moving on the lunges, and challenge yourself to perform one more pull-up or push-up before breaking on each round.

Scaling:
A classic combo of deadlifts and pushing. The deadlifts are meant to be light and fast. On the hand-release push-up, descend to the floor in a solid plank, maintain tension, release the hands from the ground, and finally, rise with your chest and hips at the same rate.
