This workout is a variation of Lynne (wmv/mov)- a Crossfit main site benchmark workout. For the Back Squat you should have the same amount on the bar as you weigh. So, if you weigh 85Kg, you should have 85Kg on the bar for your squats.

Once you pause at the top or bottom of the push up to adjust your hands, take a break, or fix your wedgie, you’re done for that round and that’s your max reps. We’ll allow a longer pause on the squats.

Take as much time as necessary between rounds, as this workout is not for time. Regard it as a a max strength day over a metcon workout.

To scale: If you can do at least 3 reps of your bodyweight DO NOT scale. If you have to reduce the weight, keep it as heavy as possible to do between 3-5 reps. For this Workout, we want to build up our absolute strength until we can back squat our bodyweight, at which point it will become an endurance building workout.

If you are doing incline push ups, go as close you can to the ground to get between 5-7 good push ups. Regardless of where you do them, hold yourself to high standards.
