Today’s workout is a shorter effort and twist on the benchmark workout Amanda. This variation highlights the gymnastics element of the workout and challenges your skill set. Don’t let the lower volume fool you — this workout packs a punch. The load of the barbell should allow you to complete the set of 9 in 1:30 or less.
If you have strict muscle-ups, but you are limited by the volume, consider reducing the reps to 5-4-3 or 3-2-1. If you do not yet have a strict ring muscle-up, perform low-ring muscle-up transitions. You can increase or decrease the difficulty of these by moving your feet forward or backward of the rings.

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!
