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?

  • 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.

  • shoulder to overhead

    The shoulder to overhead movement trains your ability to drive a load from the shoulders to a locked-out position overhead using one of several techniques — strict press, push press, push jerk, or split jerk. It's a staple in any shoulder to overhead workout for building upper body strength, power, and stability.

    In this workout, shoulder to overhead challenges your shoulders, triceps, and core, especially under fatigue. It’s a versatile movement that allows athletes to choose the most efficient technique to move weight overhead — depending on the load and intensity.

  • squat clean

    The squat clean is a compound Olympic lift that builds explosive power, coordination, and full-body strength. A staple in many high-skill squat clean workouts, it involves lifting a barbell from the ground into a front squat, catching it deep before standing to finish the rep.

    In this workout, squat cleans challenge your hip extension, pulling mechanics, leg drive, and mobility. Whether performed heavy for strength or light for speed, the squat clean is essential for developing athleticism and efficient barbell movement.

  • cluster

    A cluster is a hybrid movement that combines a squat clean with a thruster—taking the bar or dumbbells from the ground to overhead through a full squat and press. Popular in high-intensity cluster workouts, this movement is a total-body test of strength, stamina, and grit.

    In this workout, clusters train explosive power, front rack mobility, and overhead pressing endurance. They’re metabolically demanding, making them ideal for conditioning pieces and strength circuits. Whether performed with a barbell or dumbbells, clusters push your limits and deliver full-body results.
