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!

Intermediate option:
Complete as many reps as possible in 12 minutes of:
1 ring dip

Meet Guest Programmer – Michele Letendre: Dec. 4-17, 2023.

3 rounds for time of:
Row 500 meters
15 ring dips
5 bar muscle-ups

Post time to comments.

Goal: Upper-body endurance. Aim to finish in 10-14 minutes.

If you are efficient at a high volume of unbroken ring dips and bar muscle-ups, this workout is going to be about the row. Other athletes will be limited by upper-body endurance. The row and the ring dips will compound, making the bar muscle-ups more difficult, so technique is key to staying efficient.

Aim for a hard effort on the row, finishing between 1:45 and 2:05. Aim for a consistent rep scheme on the ring dips whether that's unbroken, 10 and 5, or 3 sets of 5, and an unbroken effort on the bar muscle-ups.

Scaling:

Intermediate option:
3 rounds for time of:
Row 500 meters
10 band-assisted strict ring dips
5 jumping bar muscle-ups

Beginner option:
Row 350 meters
10 foot-assisted bar dips
5 jumping pull-ups

Beginner athletes may struggle on the dips. Scale the difficulty so you can complete sets of 5 at the start. Jumping pull-ups should be difficult enough that you feel yourself pull your chin over the bar rather than just jumping.
