SCALING:
Today’s workout will look different for different ability levels. While an advanced athlete may be able to “sprint” through, for other athletes, this may be more of a skill day — an opportunity to practice new skills or push the margins of experience out a bit further. Choose an option for the run that allows you to finish in 10 minutes or less. If you do not spend a lot of time on the GHD, scale the number of reps and range of motion. If you do not have access to a GHD, consider performing good mornings either unloaded or at most with an empty barbell. When it comes to the freestanding handstand hold, choose an option that allows you to hold for at least 15 seconds. That said, if you want to try the freestanding handstand, but you can only hold for a few seconds at a time, simply scale the time you accumulate. Have fun with this one and step outside your comfort zone.
