Scaling notes
- Sled Pull: No sled? Use a rope/band pull-through or a weighted backward drag for the same distance.
- Sandbag Lunges: No sandbag? A loaded backpack or a pair of dumbbells held at the shoulders works.
- SkiErg: No SkiErg? Sub an air bike or 25% more calories on a rower to match the effort.
- Wall Balls: Lighter ball or a lower target height is fine — keep the rep count as prescribed.
