Post time to comments.

Scaling:
Today’s workout is meant to be a grind. The load of the ruck should allow you to complete at least 15-20 unbroken reps of the ground-to-overheads and to keep moving on each of the rucks. Newer athletes should move at a march pace and reduce the distance to complete each ruck in no more than 11 minutes. If you’re more experienced, feel free to pick up the pace.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d

Beginner option:
For time:
20 ground-to-overheads with the ruck

15 ground-to-overheads with the ruck
800-meter ruck

Post total step-ups reps to comments.

Scaling:
Today’s chipper-style workout challenges you to get through the first three exercises before you can earn a score. If you want more time with the box step-ups, you need to move quickly. Athletes should reduce the distance of the ruck, the difficulty of the toes-to-bars, and the load of the push jerks to give themselves at least 90 seconds to perform max reps of the box step-ups with the ruck. Some athletes could have several minutes, but that means they need to be moving! Athletes should start with the ruck, take it off for the toes-to-bars and push jerks, and then put the ruck back on for the box step-ups.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many reps as possible in 14 minutes of:

1,200-meter ruck
24 knees-to-armpits
12 push jerks
Max box step-ups with your ruck in the remaining time

♀ 95-lb barbell, 20-lb ruck, 20-inch box
