Scaling:
Today’s workout is two separate max efforts. A run sprint, followed by a heavy 5-rep max deadlift. Most athletes can do this workout as prescribed. On the deadlift, intermediate athletes should build to a heavy set of 5, while newer athletes should start light, focus on mechanics, and slowly add weight as they are comfortable.

Scaling:
While equal reps of wall walks to Open Workout 21.1, when paired with a thruster the demand on your shoulder stamina will be even higher. Most athletes should scale the loading on the thruster so that each round can be completed in 1-2 sets. Newer athletes should reduce the overall volume and modify the wall walk.

Intermediate Option:
8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps for time of:
Thrusters
Wall walks

Beginner Option:

Scaling
This couplet should be relatively heavy but still fast-paced. Just about all athletes can perform deadlifts and some version of a burpee. Reduce the loading so you can complete each set of deadlifts unbroken. If needed, reduce the number of burpees to a point that allows you to keep moving quickly and avoid excessive rest.

Intermediate Option
5 rounds for time of:
5 deadlifts
10 burpees

Men: 225 lb.
Women: 155 lb.

Beginner Option
5 rounds for time of:
