Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout contains 6 sprint-style intervals. In order to get the most out of this effort, choose a jump rope variation that gives you around 30 seconds to perform kettlebell swings. The kettlebell loading should be something heavier than you may normally swing, but manageable enough that you can swing it for the entirety of the remaining time in the interval.
Scaling:
Reduce the loading of the kettlebell. Reduce the reps of the double-unders.
To reduce the complexity of the jump rope, consider performing single-unders. For the kettlebell swings, reduce the range of motion.
In case of injury or limitation, for the double-unders, perform penguin taps or consider 7/9 calories on a bike. For the kettlebell swings, perform single-arm swings or kettlebell sumo deadlifts.
