Barbell Repeater - Crossfit Workout

4 Rounds for time

10 Pull ups
20 Thrusters Intermediate: @25/35 RX: @30/45
10 Power Cleans

TC: 15

Workout Overview

This fast-paced 4-round workout mixes barbell cycling and gymnastics pulling into one spicy engine piece. Pull-ups open each round and get harder as fatigue builds, while thrusters and power cleans tax your legs, shoulders, and grip. It’s a full-body grind designed to challenge barbell proficiency and pacing.

Execution and Focus

Start each round with controlled, efficient pull-ups—break early to avoid burn out. Move into the thrusters with a smooth breathing pattern—20 reps is a big set, so consider breaking 10-10 or 12-8. Use the power cleans to catch your breath slightly, but stay moving. Barbell cycling here is key—don’t rush your transitions or you’ll blow up.

Strategy and Finish

Each round should take no more than 3–3:30 minutes. Set a consistent pace through the first two rounds, then assess where to push. Thrusters will be the sticking point for many—break them into manageable sets to avoid redlining. The final round is a gut check: go unbroken on the pull-ups if you can, hang onto the bar for the thrusters, and clean with intensity to the finish. Keep the clock in mind and stay aggressive.

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.

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • Pull up

    The pull-up is a foundational bodyweight movement that builds upper body strength, focusing on your back, shoulders, arms, and core. A staple in almost every pull-up workout, it's key for developing gymnastics capacity and functional pulling power.

    In this workout, pull-ups challenge your grip, coordination, and endurance — especially under fatigue. Whether strict, kipping, or butterfly, the pull-up remains one of the most effective and scalable exercises in CrossFit.

  • thrusters

    The thruster is a full-body compound movement that combines a front squat with an overhead press, making it one of the most demanding and effective exercises in any thruster workout.

    In this workout, thrusters develop leg drive, shoulder endurance, and core stability, all while elevating your heart rate. Whether using a barbell, dumbbells, or kettlebells, the thruster is a powerful tool for building strength, power, and conditioning — fast.

  • 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.
