Scaling:
Today we have an ascending ladder of ring dips and burpees paired with a consistent number of hang power cleans. The load of the barbell is moderately heavy and should allow you to complete 5 reps in 2 sets or less. Advanced athletes may be able to maintain unbroken reps throughout the workout. Athletes performing the ring dips as prescribed should be able to maintain consistent sets of 3-5 unbroken reps. Expect the ring dips and burpees to cause localized muscle fatigue and the hang power cleans to be a welcomed “break.” Work hard and have fun today!

Post reps to comments.
Scaling:
Time to get gymnasty. The goal of the freestanding shoulder taps is to reach a point of balance in a handstand and begin the shoulder taps. A rep is counted every time a hand touches a shoulder. Challenge yourself to reach balance before beginning the shoulder taps rather than wildly throwing your feet in the air and frantically looking for a shoulder to tap. If you struggle to find a point of balance freestanding, you are better off practicing against the wall. Performing shoulder taps with your stomach facing the wall will be easier than performing shoulder taps with your back to the wall. Scale the difficulty of the rope climbs to allow yourself at least 1 rep every 20-30 seconds.
Intermediate option:
For reps:
3 minutes of shoulder taps in a handstand against the wall
3 minutes of rope climbs (15 feet)
2 minutes of shoulder taps in a handstand against the wall
2 minutes of rope climbs
1 minute of shoulder taps in a handstand against the wall
1 minute of rope climbs
Beginner option:
For reps:
3 minutes of shoulder taps in a pike position on the floor
3 minutes of pull-to-stands
2 minutes of shoulder taps in a pike position on the floor
2 minutes of pull-to-stands
1 minute of shoulder taps in a pike position on the floor
1 minute of pull-to-stands

Notes From Michele:
Jan Kozak, our newest addition to the team at Deka Comp, gave us this one. Kozak has a love for barbell cycling and here are some of his notes:
Pulling, cleaning, squatting — all the barbell fun in one good, clean rodeo. Athletes should attempt to go unbroken on the bar throughout, but it’s likely many will break the reps up late in the workout.
Fast in this triplet means efficient. You can’t rush this load if you struggle to have control over the basic elements of each movement: Bar path, upper-back engagement, and for the cleans, proper turnover mechanics. To set yourself up for success, move cleanly on the deadlifts (pun intended), be snappy when receiving the bar in the cleans, and keep your weight in your heels on the front squats.
Intermediate option:
7 rounds for time:
7 deadlifts
7 hang power cleans
7 front squats
♀ 75 lb
♂ 115 lb
Intermediate athletes should focus on moving through the hang power cleans as efficiently as possible.
Beginner option:
7 rounds for time:
7 deadlifts
7 hang power cleans
7 front squats
♀ 45 lb
♂ 65 lb
Beginners should focus on the setup position in the deadlift. Rather than aiming for unbroken reps, take strategic breaks to reset. A strategy could be to drop the bar on the sixth deadlift, then perform the last rep with the plan to go straight into the hang power cleans. Focus on a big jump and shrug in the hang power cleans — break around reps 4 or 5 if needed. Go for unbroken front squats if possible.
