Benchmarked Burn - Crossfit Workout

AMRAP 13

3-6-9-12-15…
DB Bench Press – Intermediate: @2x15/22.5 | RX: @2x17.5/25
Double DB Squat Cleans
Wall Balls @14/20 lbs

60 Double Unders after each round

Workout Overview

“Benchmarked Burn” is a 13-minute ascending ladder that combines upper-body strength, squat cycling, and engine stamina. Each round increases in reps—3, 6, 9, 12, 15…—for dumbbell bench press, double dumbbell squat cleans, and wall balls. After each round, athletes must complete 60 double unders before beginning the next round. The result is a continuous push-pull between strength fatigue and aerobic effort.

Execution and Focus

Start with deliberate, controlled bench press reps—don’t rush the press or collapse the core. Keep your feet planted and dumbbells balanced. The double DB squat cleans require consistent form: use your hips to drive and keep the chest tall. Wall balls are a gassy finisher each round—stay relaxed and efficient. For the double unders, minimize arm movement and breathe through the rope.

Strategy and Finish

Pace round one like it’s round five. Each rep scheme builds fast, and shoulder fatigue will stack quickly. Consider breaking bench early to save push capacity. The squat cleans can be done in steady singles or short sets. Keep your jump rope transitions smooth and consistent—unbroken sets will save time, but short breaks are fine to stay moving. This AMRAP rewards those who can manage volume and grip without panic.

What is an "amrap" workout?

An AMRAP workout — short for "As Many Rounds (or Reps) As Possible" — is a popular format in CrossFit workouts and functional fitness training. In an AMRAP CrossFit workout, you’re given a set amount of time (e.g., 10, 12, or 20 minutes) to complete as many rounds or repetitions as possible of a specific set of exercises.

This training style is known for being simple, scalable, and highly effective. Whether you're performing a bodyweight circuit or combining barbell and cardio movements, an AMRAP workout pushes your limits and helps build endurance, strength, and mental toughness.

Why Choose an AMRAP CrossFit Workout?

  • Time-efficient: Great for busy schedules — you know exactly how long the workout takes.

  • Self-paced intensity: Go as hard as you can or focus on movement quality depending on your goal.

  • Easy to scale: Modify weights, reps, or movements to fit your fitness level.

  • Motivating structure: The challenge to beat your previous round count adds a competitive edge.

Whether you're training at home or at your CrossFit box, an AMRAP workout is a fun and functional way to boost your fitness, track your progress, and build resilience. Explore our library of AMRAP CrossFit workouts and get inspired to move!

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • double dumbbell squat clean

    The double dumbbell squat clean is a full-body Olympic-style lift that moves two dumbbells from the ground to the shoulders while catching in a full squat. Common in double dumbbell squat clean workouts, this movement builds explosive power, coordination, and positional strength.

    In this workout, double dumbbell squat cleans target the glutes, quads, hamstrings, and shoulders while reinforcing timing, balance, and midline control. The independent loading makes it a great tool for building functional strength and correcting side-to-side imbalances.

  • dumbbell bench press

    The dumbbell bench press is a unilateral pressing movement where dumbbells are pressed from chest to full lockout while lying on a bench. A staple in dumbbell bench press workouts, this variation offers a greater range of motion and balance demand than barbell presses.

    In this workout, dumbbell bench presses build chest, triceps, and shoulder strength while improving joint control and muscular symmetry. It’s a powerful upper-body builder that can be scaled from rehab to hypertrophy and strength-focused programming.

  • 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.

  • Double under

    The double under is a jump rope skill where the rope passes under your feet twice per jump, building coordination, speed, and cardiovascular endurance. It’s a popular movement in high-intensity double under workouts, often used to spike heart rate and improve timing under fatigue.

    In this workout, double unders challenge your footwork, rhythm, and breathing, making them a key tool for improving overall conditioning. Whether you're linking sets or working on consistency, double unders are a fast-paced way to level up your engine.
