Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is essentially three 4-minute efforts. Two of these efforts are Tabata double-unders and the couplet is a 4-minute AMRAP (as many reps as possible). Your score today is total reps. The loading of the dumbbell should be relatively light and allow you to complete your reps unbroken. Choose an option for the single-leg squats that allows you to keep moving.
Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the dumbbell.
To reduce the complexity of the double-unders, perform single-unders. For the single-leg squats, consider performing single-leg squats to a target or single-leg squats with the non-squatting leg wrapped around the heel of the squatting leg.
In case of injury or limitation, perform calories on any available machine in place of the double-unders. For the dumbbell hang snatches, perform dumbbell hang cleans (overhead limitation). For the single-leg squats, consider reverse lunges or air squats.
