An ascending Ladder AMRAP, where the Box Jumps and HSPUs go up by 3 every round, but the bear crawl stays consistent at 30’. Would suggest taping off a 15’ area, so you can bear crawl down and back each time for your 30’.
Scaling Options:
Box height -> 20/16 -> as needed
HSPUs -> Pike Push Ups off box* -> Pike Push-Ups off the ground -> Hand Release Push ups
