Scaling:
All athletes can work to the best of their abilities in the hang-snatch sets. Experienced athletes should build to a heavy single. If you are new to weightlifting, you may choose to perform one hang power snatch plus one overhead squat.
Scaling:
Reduce the loading to a moderately heavy deadlift for you. An option for a scaled wall walk is to start in a push-up position with the feet touching the wall. Then, move the feet up the wall while keeping the hands in place. Walk the hands 2-4 steps toward the wall. Then, walk the feet and hands back down, without sliding, to a plank, then bring the chest to the ground.

Scaling:
Despite the volume of GHD sit-ups and the strength required for weighted pull-ups, experienced athletes will still be able to work at a pace that challenges conditioning. Newer athletes might be able to use the GHD but should be cautious about doing too many reps if they blaze through the pulling modifications.

Grace is one of the fastest CrossFit benchmark workouts. Reduce the load so you can perform multiple reps unbroken and complete all reps in less than 5 minutes. Athletes less familiar with Olympic lifting should take time to drill the mechanics of each movement and reduce the load drastically.

Experienced athletes should attempt to increase the load every set. Focus on excellent technique and aim for a PR on the 4th or 5th set. Athletes with less experience should consider adding reps, or simply practicing the movement for a set amount of time to develop technique.
