“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… It’s about learning to dance in the rain.” – Vivian Greene
Let’s not wait for the perfect time.
Let’s instead just create it.
“Just start”. We’ve used this approach in our strategy pieces. As we transition from the double-under rope to the wallballs, let’s just start. If we can remove that moment of hesitation, we quickly find those first repetitions are always there… and more. We surprise ourselves with a set of 15 reps, when we could have bet our lives that we might fail the first.
We can either await the picture perfect moment, or we can get outside and create it.

6 Handstand Push-ups
9 Wallballs MRx: 14/10, Rx: 20/14
Rest 1 Minute Between Rounds.
– Conditioning Category: Threshold. Athletes would aim to move at their maximal sustainable pace throughout.
– Workout Flow: Athletes will complete 5 AMRAP 3’s resting 1:00 between each AMRAP. Athletes will always pick up where they left off in the previous round. For example, if you finish in the middle of HSPU, you’ll pick back up on the HSPU after the 1:00 rest.
– Power Cleans: Loading should not exceed 65% of your 1RM power clean. Reps should take less than 30 seconds each round.
– HSPU: Can be performed kipping or strict. Reps should take less than 1:00 each round.
– Wallballs: Reps should take less than 1:00 each round.
– Score: Total rounds + reps completed over the course of the entire workout.
– Singles and touch and go sets are both solid strategies for this workout. Let’s choose our strategy based off of what will allow for big or unbroken sets of HSPU and wallballs.
– Aim to complete the handstand push-ups in 1-2 sets. Keep your break short if you know you’ll need one.
– Aim for unbroken wallballs each round.
– There are lots of transitions in this workout so let’s try to make sure our stations are close together.

“Only a man who knows what it’s like to be defeated, can reach down to the bottom of his soul with the extra ounce of power to win, when the match is even.” – Mohammed Ali
It’s commonplace to look at mistakes, miscues, and losses as negatives. And it’s even more common to view them as setbacks. Yet here, one of the greatest of time, offers the difference maker in an otherwise even fight between two opponents:
Failure.
Through the experience of failure, the fighter becomes the victor. Not because of the pain of loss, or the embarrassment of defeat. But through viewing failure as a chance to start again, more equipped. More prepared. More experienced.

“Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but rather by the seeds you plant.” – Robert Lewis Stevensen
The definition of success is whatever we make of it.
Many directly link results to success. And the lack thereof, to failure. But what if we reshaped that way of thinking. What if we measured success, as the seeds we “plant for tomorrow”? What if we decide that a successful day is deemed so purely by how much we learned?
We can view days as tests.
Or we can view days as opportunities.
Time to tend to the field.

“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity.” – James Clear
If someone has 10 coins, are they rich? Let’s say no.
What if they have 100 coins? Probably not.
What about 1,000 coins?
There is a tipping point. A number where our answer changes to yes. It actually narrows down to a single coin where that takes place.
But… we know it wasn’t *just* the single coin. It was the culmination of the many before. We can apply this same logic to our identity. By itself, walking the shopping cart back to its home isn’t going to change who we are as an individual. By itself, picking up trash outside of the local school isn’t going to either. It’s the culmination, that will. These votes for who we are, seemingly small at the time, add up.
A pitfall in life is when we view instances throughout our day as insignificant. We tell ourselves, “this won’t make a difference”. Yet at the end of the day, just like the single coin, it’s all that matters.

“I attribute my success to this – I never gave, or took, any excuse.” – Florence Nightingale
The terrifying thing about excuses, is that it blinds us to our next move. If we excuse or try to justify a misstep, we at a subconscious level tell ourselves that this is “out of my control”. That this was a fluke, or a chance event, and there’s nothing I could do differently next time.
On the flip side, owning what happens is not about beating ourselves up or throwing pity parties. It’s solely so that we can open our vision on where to go next. To see the lesson in front of us.
Excuses are contagious, and horribly damaging. Let’s take the opposite road, as growth begins with responsibility.
Chest-To-Bar Pull-ups (Chest to Bar Pull-ups

Individuals Quarterfinals 21.1 (Time)
“Individual Quarterfinals 21.1”
3 Rounds:
10 Strict Handstand Push-ups
10 Dumbbell Hang Power Cleans
50 Double Unders
[After 3 Rounds, Rest 1 Minute]
3 Rounds:
10 Kipping Handstand Push-ups
10 Dumbbell Shoulder to Overhead
50 Double Unders
Dumbbells: Mrx: 30/15, Rx: 40/25, Rx+: 50/35
Time Cap: 10 Minutes
– This workout was completed on 4.9.21 for individual quarterfinal athletes only.
– Conditioning Category: Sprint. Athletes will move as quickly as possible through each part of this workout.
– Strict HSPU: Should take less than :45s each round.
– DB Movements: Complete both movements with 2 dumbbells. Reps should be able to be completed in 1-2 sets in less than :45s.
– Double Unders: Reps should take less than 1:00 to complete each round.
– Kipping HSPU: Should take less than :45s each round.
– Total time it takes to complete the workout (including rest). If capped, add 1s for every missed rep.
– The separator in this workout is the handstand push-ups. Treat these as if you are doing 30 strict handstand push-ups for time, resting 1:00 and then doing 30 kipping handstand push-ups for time. 1-2 sets each round is a great goal to have however, if you feel a sticky rep approaching, let’s break before we get there.
– We can cycle the dumbbell hang power cleans in 2 ways. The hang muscle clean is a great way to speed up the movement but will require a higher demand on the shoulders. The traditional hang power clean is a little bit slower but may be more sustainable.
– Recover on the double unders. Stay relaxed in the grip and breathe.
– There are a lot of transitions in this workout, let’s make them smooth and neatly set the jump rope each round.
– We need to shoot for 3-4 minutes on each part to finish this workout. This is going to be TIGHT for many athletes.
