Tuesday night

HeavyScaling
5 muscle ups
10 push press
20 sit ups
x5

So youve got a muscle up-yes? Or maybe no, maybe sometimes when the tides are right, so how do we scale this wod?-We need to look at the strength aspects of this wod and split the muscle up into its component parts, it's basically a pullup and a dip (!), HQ recommends that a substitute for the movement-say if you had to do 30 you would in fact do 120 pullups and 120 dips, by using this principle we take our muscle up portion of the wod and split it so we see the substitute of dips and pullups, again if these are an issue, the movements can be assisted further-but with all scaling remember to keep an eye on relative intensity too.
