workout description

"For Time – Overhead & Over the Box"

This fast-paced couplet WOD combines overhead squats and box jump overs in a descending rep scheme, with a pulling tax after every round to spike your heart rate and grip.

For Time:

20-15-10-5
Overhead Squats @20/30 (Intermediate: 30/40 | RX: 35/50 kg)
Box Jump Overs

After each round:
2 Burpee Banded Pull-Ups / Bar Muscle-Ups

Time Cap: 10 minutes

This is a leg, shoulder, and grip burner — the OHS and box jumps keep your legs and midline under pressure, while the burpee pull-up/muscle-up buy-in after each round makes it a complete upper-body challenge.

What is a "for time" workout?

A for time workout is a classic CrossFit format where the goal is to complete a set list of exercises as fast as possible. Your time becomes your score, making each for time CrossFit workout a race against the clock — and yourself.

In a typical for time workout, you'll perform a fixed number of reps or rounds of movements (e.g., squats, push-ups, burpees, or barbell lifts) and finish them as quickly as you can while maintaining good form. This format pushes you to work hard, manage fatigue, and develop both conditioning and mental toughness.

Why Try a "For Time" CrossFit Workout?

  • Builds intensity and urgency into your training

  • Encourages better pacing, efficiency, and recovery awareness

  • Easy to track progress over time — beat your previous score!

  • Works well for individual or group competition-style workouts

Whether you're doing a short sprint or a long chipper, the for time CrossFit workout format is a powerful way to test your limits and stay motivated in your training.
