Spend the first part of class going over muscle-up drills – most of these can be worked on whether you have a muscle-up or not. Scaling for the WOD can be done in many different ways. For instance, someone who has muscle-ups, but is intimidated by doing 2 at a time might only do 1 at a time. Others might do 4 pull-ups (kipping or banded or ring rows) and 4 dips (or push-ups). Others might do 2 pull-ups and 2 dips. You might also scale the number of double unders, but since there is a time cap, you might also choose to work through as much as you can. 20 rounds for time: 2 muscle-ups 20 double unders 22 min. cap
