5-Minute Cycles - Crossfit Workout

E5MOM x 4 (20 Min Total)

200 Meter Run
12 Wall Balls – @14/20 lbs
10 Power Cleans – Intermediate: @30/45 | RX: @35/50
8 Overhead Squats
10/14 Cal Assault Bike (add 2 calories every round)

Workout Overview

“5-Minute Cycles” is a high-volume, escalating intensity piece that runs on a 5-minute clock. You'll repeat a full round of cardio and barbell movements four times, with a 200m run setting the pace and an increasing assault bike demand closing each effort.

Execution and Focus

Run smooth—don’t sprint. Hit the wall balls unbroken if possible, then transition to the barbell with control. The power cleans should feel crisp and fluid, setting up for a strong set of overhead squats. On the bike, hit the assigned calories with enough time to breathe before the next 5-minute block begins.

Strategy and Finish

Start round one conservatively. Use the first set to gauge pacing. As the assault bike cals increase, stay composed and manage breathing. The goal is to complete each round in 3:30–4:30 and stay consistent. This workout rewards athletes who can recover on the run and stay snappy on the barbell.

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • wall ball

    The wall ball is a classic CrossFit movement that combines a front squat and an explosive throw, targeting your legs, shoulders, and lungs in one fluid motion. It’s a staple in any high-intensity wall ball workout, known for quickly elevating your heart rate.

    In this workout, wall balls build endurance, coordination, and full-body power. Whether you're using a 10 or 20 lb ball, this simple movement delivers serious results — especially when the reps start adding up.

  • Assault Bike

    The Assault Bike is a fan-powered machine that delivers one of the most effective full-body conditioning challenges in fitness. Common in high-intensity assault bike workouts, it trains your legs, arms, and lungs all at once — and responds directly to how hard you push.

    In this workout, the Assault Bike is used to build power, stamina, and mental toughness. Whether you're sprinting for calories or holding a steady pace, the Assault Bike is perfect for intervals, finishers, or pure engine tests.

  • 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.

  • running

    Running is one of the most effective ways to build cardiovascular endurance, leg strength, and mental toughness. A foundational element in many running workouts, it adds intensity and pacing challenges to both short sprints and longer distances.

    In this workout, running boosts your engine, footwork, and recovery capacity, especially when paired with strength or skill-based movements. Whether you're hitting meters or minutes, running is essential for building a well-rounded fitness base.

  • power clean

    The power clean is a fast, explosive lift that develops full-body strength, speed, and coordination. A staple in Olympic lifting and functional fitness, it’s central to many high-intensity power clean workouts.

    In this workout, power cleans train your hip extension, pulling power, and barbell control, making them ideal for improving athletic performance and barbell cycling. Whether done heavy or for reps, the power clean is key for building functional power and explosiveness.
