Scaling:
Today’s workout is a grind. How far into the pain cave do you want to venture? There are two ways to attack this workout: Sprint each effort and bank as much rest as possible before the next interval, or move at a moderate pace and aim to sneak by each minute. If you finish the round of 20, your workout is over. If you didn’t finish the round of 20 in your last attempt, aim to complete one more round than you did last time.

Scaling:
Today’s workout is a mental and physical test. On paper, this workout creates an ominous thought of too much time on the rower — and that's exactly what’s intended. Adjust the load of the dumbbell so you can perform at least 10 unbroken snatches. Consider holding the dumbbell in the farmers-carry position, the front rack, or on the shoulder. Ultimately, the choice is yours, but the goal is to perform 50 lunges unbroken. Don’t look at the clock — just jump on the rower, push the pace, and get to work. Have fun!
