Scaling:
Today’s workout is a classic benchmark effort. The goal is to maintain a relatively consistent time in each round. If unable to finish each movement in 3 sets or less, decrease the reps by 5-10 per movement. You should also be able to complete a single round in 5 minutes or less if you are going to attempt this workout as prescribed.
Intermediate option:
5 rounds, each for time, of:
10 pull-ups
20 push-ups
30 sit-ups
40 squats
Rest precisely 3 minutes between rounds.
Beginner option:
3 rounds, each for time, of:
10 ring rows
15 push-ups from the knees
20 sit-ups
25 squats
Rest precisely 3 minutes between rounds.
Coaching cues:
Avoid the “snakey” push-up. Your entire body should move up and down as a single unit. To do so, squeeze your thighs, glutes, and abs as you move through each push-up.
