What is an "EMOM" workout?

An EMOM workout stands for "Every Minute on the Minute" — a time-based training format where you perform a specific number of reps or a short workout at the start of every minute, then rest for the remainder of that minute.

In a typical EMOM CrossFit workout, you'll rotate through one or more movements (like squats, push-ups, or barbell lifts) for a set number of minutes. Whether it’s 10, 20, or 30 minutes long, an EMOM builds consistency, pacing, and work capacity.

Why Choose an EMOM CrossFit Workout?

  • Trains intensity with structure — no wasted time

  • Builds work/rest awareness and sustainable pacing

  • Easy to scale for beginners or advanced athletes

  • Perfect for developing movement quality under fatigue

EMOM workouts are ideal for strength training, conditioning, or skill development, and they work in both solo and group settings. Whether you're doing a bodyweight circuit or barbell cycling, an EMOM workout keeps you moving with purpose.

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • Row Erg

    Rowing is a low-impact, full-body movement that builds cardiovascular endurance, leg drive, and pulling strength. It’s a staple in many CrossFit workouts because it trains both aerobic capacity and muscular coordination.

    In this rowing workout, each effort helps develop power output, pacing control, and total-body stamina — all while being easy on the joints. Whether you're sprinting for calories or pacing for meters, rowing is one of the most effective tools for conditioning.

  • bike erg

    The BikeErg is a fan-powered cycling machine that delivers a smooth, low-impact workout focused on leg power, aerobic endurance, and pacing control. Common in BikeErg workouts, it's perfect for both steady-state conditioning and high-intensity intervals.

    In this workout, the BikeErg builds quad and glute strength, while challenging your engine and recovery. Whether you're sprinting for calories or logging meters, the BikeErg is a versatile tool for improving cardiovascular fitness in a joint-friendly way.

  • bar facing burpee

    The bar-facing burpee is a high-intensity movement that combines a chest-to-floor burpee with a two-foot jump over a barbell. It's a CrossFit staple used in many bar facing burpee workouts to build explosive power, agility, and full-body conditioning.

    In this workout, bar-facing burpees spike your heart rate, test your coordination, and demand mental grit — especially when paired with heavy lifting or fast-paced intervals. Simple, brutal, and effective.

  • overhead squat

    The overhead squat is a high-skill movement that develops full-body strength, mobility, balance, and core control. A key lift in many overhead squat workouts, it involves holding a barbell locked overhead while performing a deep squat — challenging both stability and flexibility.

    In this workout, overhead squats train shoulder stability, midline engagement, and leg strength, making them a valuable tool for improving movement quality and preparing for Olympic lifts like the snatch.
