Scaling:
Today we have a longer chipper-style workout. Expect the kettlebell swings and knees-to-elbows to play off of each other in an interesting way. Use a kettlebell that allows you to perform each section in 2 sets or less. You should always be able to complete at least 5 knees-to-elbows throughout the workout. Aim to complete each run in 5 minutes or less. Work hard and have fun today.

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
25-foot handstand walk
10 kettlebell swings

Post rounds and reps to comments.

Scaling:
Today’s workout is short, but don’t let it fool you — it will get spicy. If you attempt the prescribed handstand walk, allow no more than 45 seconds to complete it. If you want to practice your handstand walk but the distance is too far, reduce to no less than 15 feet. The kettlebell swings should be moderately heavy and unbroken for as many rounds as possible. Can you hold on for 1 round per minute? Maybe more?

Intermediate option:
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
20 alternating shoulder taps against the wall
10 kettlebell swings

♀ 35 lb
♂ 53 lb

Beginner option:
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
