Burpee Pull Cluster - Crossfit Workout

EMOM 20

1: 10 Burpee box jump over
2: 6–10 Pull-ups + 6–10 Toes to bar (same number of each)
3: 12 DB Clusters Intermediate: @15/22,5 | RX: @17,5/25
4: 12–15/15–20 Cal Row
5: Rest

Workout Overview

This EMOM is structured in five-minute repeating blocks over a 20-minute span. The variety of movements targets different muscle groups, keeping the intensity high but the stimulus varied. You'll move from explosive box jumps to strict gymnastics, power-driven dumbbell work, and high-demand cardio, making this a full-body test of endurance, coordination, and grit.

Execution and Focus

Each minute has a clear focus. Minute 1 is pure grit and jump capacity. Minute 2 requires control and rhythm with two gymnastics elements—pull-ups and toes to bar—done in matching reps. Minute 3 demands clean movement through squat cleans and thrusters with dumbbells. Minute 4 tests aerobic capacity on the rower. Minute 5 is your only break, so breathe intentionally to lower your heart rate. Stay efficient and avoid early burnout.

Strategy and Finish

Choose your rep range wisely, especially in the gymnastics. Stick to numbers that allow you to finish in 40 seconds or less. Don’t redline in the first 10 minutes—stay consistent, pace the clusters, and approach the row with controlled effort. Use the rest minute to reset your breathing and grip. The key to finishing strong is managing your transitions and maintaining unbroken sets where possible.

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?

  • Burpee Box Jump Overs

    The burpee box jump over is a high-intensity, plyometric movement that combines a burpee with a lateral or forward jump over a box. A staple in burpee box jump over workouts, this movement tests explosive power, coordination, and grit.

    In this workout, burpee box jump overs elevate the heart rate, develop lower-body explosiveness, and challenge mental resilience. Unlike standard box jumps, the goal is to get over the box—not land on top—keeping the movement fast and fluid. It’s a perfect blend of cardio and power in a compact format.

  • Dumbbell Clusters

    A dumbbell cluster combines a squat clean directly into a thruster—moving from floor to overhead in one fluid, explosive motion. In dumbbell cluster workouts, this compound movement challenges strength, coordination, and conditioning in a minimal-equipment setting.

    In this workout, dumbbell clusters hit the legs, core, shoulders, and lungs all at once. The clean demands power and precision, while the thruster finishes with a full-body press under fatigue. It’s a time-efficient, high-output movement perfect for intensity and full-body development.

  • 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.

  • T2B

    Toes to bar is a powerful gymnastics movement that targets your core, grip, lats, and hip flexors, making it a key element in many high-intensity toes to bar workouts.

    In this workout, toes to bar challenge your core strength, rhythm, and coordination while under fatigue. Whether you're kipping or going strict, it’s an essential skill for improving gymnastics capacity and midline control in CrossFit.

  • 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.
