Scaling:
If choosing Test 1, modify the movements and reduce the dumbbell load to something you can perform quickly and unbroken. This workout is a sprint, and should be scaled to allow for a quick, all-out effort.
If choosing Test 2, be careful of the high volume of each exercise, especially with the GHD. Athletes without exposure to the GHD should drastically reduce the volume. Overall this workout is fairly long, so choose modifications that are still challenging, and plan on having to break each exercise multiple sets.
Intermediate Option:
3 rounds of:
10 kipping handstand push-ups

Gymnasty Annie is another new benchmark and involves a high-skill gymnastics piece: the straddle press to handstand. The original Annie workout is meant to be performed at high speed. Choose that option today if you have not yet performed this benchmark. Modify the double-unders if you are not yet proficient, and reduce the sit-up reps so each round is challenging but manageable.
