Complete as many reps as possible in 8 minutes of:

• 8 dumbbell goblet squats 70/50lb Dumbbell
• 8 handstand push-ups
  

♀ 50-lb dumbbell
♂ 70-lb dumbbell

Stimulus and Strategy: Today’s workout is quick and to the point. With the complementary movement functions and the small amount of reps in each set, you should be able to move through a single round in 90 seconds or less. More advanced athletes may be able to maintain unbroken handstand push-ups and keep rounds under 1 minute. Don’t pace on this one. Keep the gas pedal down and the workout will be over before you know it. Work hard and have fun.

Scaling: Reduce the loading of the dumbbell to a weight that allows you to maintain unbroken reps for the entire workout. Reduce the reps of the handstand push-ups if the volume of each round is too much. Consider as few as 4 reps.

To reduce the complexity of the goblet squat, reduce the loading of the dumbbell. If necessary, perform an air squat and focus on moving through the range of motion. For the handstand push-ups, perform pike push-ups or dumbbell shoulder presses.
In case of an injury or limitation, consider air squats or unweighted lunges in place of the goblet squats. Focus on a pain-free range of motion. For the handstand push-ups, consider push-ups or single-arm dumbbell shoulder or push presses.
