Today’s WOD (workout of the day) consists of three movements: double unders, toes-to-bar, and handstand push-ups. This workout is long and challenging, so please cap it at 30 minutes. That means if you haven’t finished the WOD after 30 minutes, stop anyway. You’ve done enough!


If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD:


Experienced:

For time:

50 double unders, 25 toes-to-bar, 25 handstand push-ups

40 double unders, 20 toes-to-bar, 20 handstand push-ups

30 double unders, 15 toes-to-bar, 15 handstand push-ups

20 double unders, 10 toes-to-bar, 10 handstand push-ups

10 double unders, 5 toes-to-bar, 5 handstand push-ups


*30 minute time cap


The Rx version of today’s workout is not appropriate for beginners, but we can always scale the WODs to make them more doable. A beginner’s version of today’s workout could look like this:


Scaled 1:

For time:

25 single unders, 15 toes-to-rig, 60 seconds downward-facing dog stretch

20 single unders, 12 toes-to-rig, 50 seconds downward-facing dog stretch

15 single unders, 9 toes-to-rig, 40 seconds downward-facing dog stretch

10 single unders, 6 toes-to-rig, 30 seconds downward-facing dog stretch

5 single unders, 3 toes-to-rig, 20 seconds downward-facing dog stretch


*If you cannot perform single unders, do twice the number of imaginary jump rope.

*The time for the downward-facing dog stretch can be cumulative. Take breaks as needed.

*30 minute time cap


This workout can be scaled in many different ways. You can reduce the number of double unders each round or substitute single unders. You can perform modified handstand push-ups, or substitute seated dumbbell presses. Do what is right for you today. Another variation of today’s WOD might look like this:


Scaled 2:

For time:

25 double unders, 25 hanging knee raises, 25 seated dumbbell presses (25lb, 15lb)

20 double unders, 20 hanging knee raises, 20 seated dumbbell presses (25lb, 15lb)

15 double unders, 15 hanging knee raises, 15 seated dumbbell presses (25lb, 15lb)

10 double unders, 10 hanging knee raises, 10 seated dumbbell presses (25lb, 15lb)

5 double unders, 5 hanging knee raises, 5 seated dumbbell presses (25lb, 15lb)


*If you cannot perform double unders, do 100-80-60-40-20 reps of single unders.

*30 minute cap
