Scaling:
Today’s workout is in the short-to-moderate time domain. If you can maintain bigger stretches on the L-sit holds and minimize breaks, you should be close to finishing at the 10-minute mark. To stay within that window, find a variation of the L-sit hold that allows you to consistently hold for 10 to 15+ seconds before breaking. If you can hold your option with ease for 45 seconds to 1 minute, try a more challenging option. The box should be a little taller than you want it to be on the jump-overs, and expect your fatigued hip flexors to make jumping a bit more difficult. Consider stepping down from the top of the box. This is not only a safety concern, it is one way to keep yourself moving at a steady pace.
Scaling:
Watch “Pistol Variations” and practice proper technique in the single-leg squats. If you are unable to perform single-leg squats with your heel on the ground throughout the rep, modify the movement to a box, as seen in the video.

Scaling:
If you anticipate that you cannot finish the first segment with 90 seconds or more to rest, modify the workout to 2 rounds for total time with a 2-minute rest between rounds. Use the step-down approach for both the box jump-overs and the burpee box jump-overs.
The Tabata interval is 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest for eight intervals. For the L-sit and handstand hold, count the number of seconds maintained in the hold. There is no rest between exercises.
Post total reps/seconds for each exercise to comments.
