Advanced: same as above, but use a barbell that is 80% of your 1RM Press for the entire complex. For example if you can press 160# you will do all of the sets with 128# (round down to 127# or bring 1/2# weights).
Climbers:
Three Rounds:
Up and down climb a boulder problem two grades below your maximum ability three times without coming off of the wall. use the the same movement pattern up and down each time.
Rest three minutes between rounds.
