This workout, created by Scott Meenagh, Martin Bell’s training partner, is meant to be performed in pairs. If completing it alone, cut all the reps in half. This year, Meenagh and CrossFit Airdrie have also created a version for those at home in lockdown, and they are encouraging athletes to partner up virtually. Examples of the Rx’d and home versions can be found here and here.

Intermediate Option:
225 reps for time

Scaling:
Reduce the reps and loading so you can complete each round quickly and in nearly unbroken sets. Each round should be a sprint, with rest occurring only in the 3 minutes between rounds. Reduce the total number of rounds to maintain speed rather than slogging through all 5.
Perform the workout like the "12 Days of Christmas" song. In round 1 perform 1 wall walk. In round 2 perform 2 candlesticks and then one wall walk. In round 3 perform 3 burpees, then 2 candlesticks, then 1 wall walk. Continue adding a new exercise each round.
