Post your fastest and slowest times to comments.
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout contains three intervals. The goal is to complete each interval as quickly as possible and within the 7-minute clock so you have rest between sets, which will allow you to hit each interval at a good pace.
Scaling:
Reduce the distance of the run. If possible, maintain the volume of each movement, but reduce the complexity of each.
If you are unfamiliar with or have not been training consistently with the GHD, reduce the range of motion or perform weighted sit-ups or AbMat sit-ups. For the double-unders, perform attempts for 1 minute or 40 singles. For the ring dips, lower the rings closer to the ground and use your legs for assistance. If necessary, perform a box or bench dip.
In case of an injury or limitation, consider substituting the run with a 1,750/2,500-meter Echo bike or an 800/1,000-meter row. For the double-unders, perform jumping jacks or low box step-ups for no more than 1 minute. For the sit-ups, perform 30-second to 1-minute plank holds. For the ring dips, consider foot-assisted box or bench dips, or push-ups with your hands on a 30-inch box.

On the rings, as you lower your body down, keep your legs extended. Then, as you get ready to press up, focus on driving your knees to your chest and then pressing the rings into your pockets.
