Scaling:
Expect today’s workout to fall in a moderate time domain. We are performing a lower volume of squat clean thrusters, but the challenge lies in hanging on to the barbell. A single repetition is a squat clean from the floor directly into a thruster. The bar must then be returned to the ground to begin the next rep. This workout is intended to be used with a moderately light barbell to allow for large, unbroken sets.

The runs should take no longer than 2:30. Push to complete the first 12 squat clean thrusters unbroken, or as close to it as possible. The intent of this workout is to cycle a lighter load across a large range of motion and push the pace on the runs.

50-40-30 reps for time of:
GHD sit-ups
Calories on the ski erg
* Complete a 100-foot handstand walk after each set.

Scaling:
Today’s workout will test your ability to handstand walk under a good amount of midline fatigue. The goal here is to keep your sets on the GHD sit-ups to 4 sets or less and ski-erg calories at a pace that allows you to kick up into the handstand walk with minimal transition time. Consider modifying the handstand walk to either a bear crawl for the same distance or 5-4-3 reps of wall walks. Some may experience a bit of “vertigo” due to the repetitive up-and-down movements. If you don’t have experience with this combination of movements, consider reducing the reps of the sit-ups and calories on the ski erg, and the distance on the handstand walk.

Intermediate option:
30-20-10 reps for time of:
GHD sit-ups to parallel
Calories on the ski erg
* Complete a 50-foot handstand walk after each set.

Beginner option:
20-15-10 reps for time of:
Sit-ups
Calories on the ski erg
* Complete a 50-foot bear crawl after each set.

Reduce the weight on the deadlift. If you are unable to hold a handstand, modify the handstand walk and spend that portion practicing by putting weight on your hands — i.e., plank hold, bear crawl, wall walk, or hold a weight overhead.
