Partner AMRAP 20 Minutes:
30 Power Cleans 135/95
30 Lateral Bar Burpees
30 Toes-to-Bars
Partners break up the reps however desired. The barbell weight should be medium-heavy, something you can move through sets of 5-10 reps. The Rx for the Burpee is a two-foot hop over the bar and a two-foot landing. Scaling for the Toes-to-Bars is Hanging Leg or Knee Raises. Choose an option that allows you to perform sets of 5-15 when fresh.
Post rounds, reps, and Rx to comments.

Rest as needed between sets but no more than 2 minutes. Focus on a perfect position (shoulders away from ears, elbows locked out, hollow body) atop the rings. Scale time as needed. You can also scale to a more stable set up using a band held across the rings or the Matador.

AMRAP 18 Minutes:
9 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls 95/65
12 Front Squats 95/65
15 Burpees
The Sumo Deadlift High Pulls should be a little heavier than your Fight Gone Bad weight, maybe unbroken throughout. The Front Squats come off the floor, NOT via a weird Clean after the 9th Sumo Deadlift High Pull, and should be completed unbroken as well.
