With even amounts of work and rest, aim to go all-out in each 5-minute segment.  With each segment, the cardio piece reduces, giving you more time to lift, but the weight increases.  Stay strong on your form!  For the lighter weights try cycling the C&Js (video courtesy of Prime Movement and Performance)

 

Scaling Options:

Run -> 750/500/250M Row, respectively -> 3/2/1 Min cardio, respectively

Pull Ups -> Buddha Pull Ups -> Table Rows

Bar weight -> as needed, as long as you increase 3 times in the WOD (first weight used should be roughly 50-60% of your Clean&Jerk 1RM.

Lat Roll out – 1 Min per side

 

Pigeon Pose – 1 Min per side
