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
2 burpees
5 hang power cleans

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.

We are due for a little circuit work. Circuit training is an excellent test
of your overall fitness. At CrossFit intensities it becomes debilitating.
We use it sparingly and go all out! This is "combat" or "getting out of
the burning building" fitness.
Decide loads and assistance (if absolutely necessary to get ALL reps)
before starting. Be smart, shelve your ego and shoot for rapid completion
with NO rest. Submit record of total time, weights for each lift, and
assistance (if needed on pull-ups and dips). Set up recording sheet
ahead of time. Rip!!
