Murph Tip of the Week: Let’s talk about scales! Scaling Murph is a reality for many athletes, and we are here to run through all the different possibilities and adjustments you can make when taking on Murph! Partitioning: by partitioning Murph you can create a workout flow that helps you attack the workout with designated rounds and reps. This is a widespread adjustment to the workout and is great for a variety of skill levels.  Using a lighter weighted vest: this is a great option for those looking to take the next step once volume is not an issue. The standard vest weights are 20# (men) and 14# (women) adjusting the vest weight down can still be a challenging workout, but help you better advance in your workout goals.  Reducing volume: A popular way to reduce the volume is Half Murph. Here you can cut the runs and reps in half and is a great way to test partitioning and repartitioning the workout. You can also opt for a partner style that breaks off the reps and has a built-in rest for you and a workout buddy.  Scaling movements: Movement scales or substitutions are great options. Some common substitutions are:  Pull-ups: Ring rows, jumping pull-ups, banded pull-ups, or seated band pull-downs.  Push-ups: Knee push-ups, incline push-ups, or box push-ups.  Squats: Squatting to a box, wall ball, or other depth target. Running: Indoor rowing, jump rope, or walking.  No matter how you plan to attack Murph this year, make sure your hands are covered, and check out our recommended grips in the link in our bio! #victorygrips #roadtovictory
