Scaling:
Today's workout is a longer effort that combines monostructural rowing efforts while building to a heavy set of push jerks. The rows should take no longer than 5:30, with faster rowers coming in closer to 3:30. Choose push jerk loads that allow you to complete each round of decreasing reps at increasing loads in no more than 3 sets and in under 2 minutes.

Scaling:
Welcome to the fourth and final workout of the 2024 CrossFit Games Quarterfinals! Today's workout is a clean-and-jerk ladder with ascending weights. This is a barbell stamina and conditioning test. The barbell load starts on the lighter side of moderate and builds its way up to relatively heavy. The first barbell should be a weight with which you can perform some touch-and-go reps, while the next three will require a bit more strategy. Consider performing fast singles with minimal rest between reps. If you are not signed up for the Quarterfinals, choose loads that challenge your ability but allow you to complete the reps at the first and second barbell. The third barbell should be tough to get through, and any reps with the fourth barbell should be considered a bonus.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many reps as possible in 10 minutes of:
10 clean and jerks, weight 1
Rest 1 minute
10 clean and jerks, weight 2
