Coaching Tips: Scale load and movements to match your current fitness level. This is a pretty straight forward "crossfit" workout. I do have some suggestions for choosing the weight or "load." Choose a weight that will allow you to complete at least the first round unbroken. If you can not make it through one round of all movements without dropping the bar, then the weight is too heavy, go lighter. Going too heavy would turn this workout into a long strength workout which is not the intent. On the other hand, if you make it through all 6 rounds unbroken then you chose a weight that was too light, go heavier. That applies even if you chose the "Rx" weight. If you are strong enough to go a bit heavier and still achieve the same metabolic conditioning effect, then you should scale UP.

A handstand on top of “Suicide Rock”? You know what they say: “Cheating is only in good taste when it involves death!”
