This is the Crossfit Balance workout of the day:
AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) for 15 minutes:
5 Clapping Push-ups*
30 mountain climbers (each leg)
3 Turkish Get-ups (each arm)**
30 mountain climbers (each leg)
*Scaling options:
1) If you usually do push-ups from the knees but can do a few regular push-ups, try regular push-ups
2) If you can do regular push-ups but can't do a full clapping pushup, try plyo push-ups.
The guy in this video isn't getting his chest all the way down so just use this as a reference for the plyo aspect - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjtdydB1v80
Note: Do not do clapping push-ups from the knees for this workout
**The prescribed weight using kettlebells (or dumbbells) is 54lbs men /35lbs women.
Here are two videos on turkish getups:

My workout: I did 4 rounds plus 5 clapping pushups. I used 25lb and it was quite challenging.
