Post reps to comments.

Scaling:
Today’s workout is a mix of high-skill gymnastics and grunt work. You have to pay the toll of the shuttle runs in order to play with the handstand push-ups. Scale the number of shuttle runs to finish in 1 minute or less. The most challenging variation of the handstand push-up is up first. Challenge yourself, but not so much that you spend a lot of time resting. There is more benefit in scaling the handstand push-up and continuously moving than in trying to do too much and twiddling your thumbs.

Intermediate option:
As many reps as possible in 6 minutes of:
3 strict handstand push-ups
5 shuttle runs

As many reps as possible in 6 minutes of:

Post time to comments.

Scaling:
Reduce the reps of shuttle runs in order to keep that portion under 5 minutes. If you are new to the rope climb, watch The Rope Climb (Basket) and The Rope Climb (Wrapping) and practice the wrapping styles, but consider modifying the movement for the workout. If you do not have access to a climbing rope, the towel pull-up is a comparable option. Reduce the load on the bench press in order to perform large sets.

For time:
50 shuttle runs (1 rep = 50 ft)

Sadie Jane Huffer, 37, died on Feb. 17, 2023, when a roof collapsed in Anchorage, Alaska, at Turnagain CrossFit.

Huffer was a beloved wife, mother, daughter, and friend. She was born in Seattle, Washington, and ended up in Anchorage for college at the University of Alaska. Huffer graduated with a bachelor's and master's degree in social work and went on to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

Described by loved ones as sensitive, loving, and caring, her hobbies included knitting, blueberry picking, making bread, smoking salmon, and working out at Turnagain CrossFit.

Huffer is survived by her husband, John Paul; children, Tyler, Blaise, and Jane; sisters, Sarah Ransom and Samantha Lamphier; and parents, Denise and Ted Smith.

A memorial workout event is being held by Huffer's Turnagain CrossFit family on April 8, at 7 p.m. at the Dome in Anchorage. To help Huffer's family during this time, you may donate here.
