DB Ladder Burn - Crossfit Workout

AMRAP 12 – 2-4-6-8-10…

Double DB Hang clean Intermediate: @2x12,5/17,5 RX: @2x15/22,5
Double DB Push press
Double DB Front squats
Cal Echo Bike

Workout Overview

This 12-minute AMRAP follows an ascending rep scheme—2, 4, 6, 8…—cycling through three dumbbell movements and an aggressive Echo bike effort. It begins light and rhythmic but becomes a serious grind as reps climb and fatigue sets in. Your shoulders, quads, and lungs will be under fire from start to finish.

Execution and Focus

Start the early rounds smooth and fast. Keep your dumbbell hang cleans efficient—no unnecessary pulls. Push press should be punchy but controlled—don’t pause overhead. Front squats demand a strong upright position and steady pace. Save energy for the Echo bike—this is where your score grows or dies. Aim for a powerful but recoverable pace and keep transitions fast.

Strategy and Finish

The round of 8 is where this gets real. Break dumbbell movements early if needed—quick 4-4 or 5-3 splits. The bike should be your accelerator; push it at the end of each round but don’t redline too early. In the final 3–4 minutes, try to go unbroken and ramp your intensity. You’re racing the clock and your own grip. Expect to get deep into the round of 12—and beyond if you’ve paced it right.

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 hang clean

    The double dumbbell hang clean is a compound lift that starts from the hang position (above the knees) and finishes with both dumbbells received in the front rack. Common in double dumbbell hang clean workouts, this movement trains power, timing, and control under independent loads.

    In this workout, double dumbbell hang cleans develop hip explosiveness, grip strength, and midline stability. The hang position shortens the range, placing more emphasis on speed and coordination—making it an excellent option for cycling, metcons, or strength-volume training.

  • double dumbbell front squat

    The double dumbbell front squat is a compound lower-body lift where two dumbbells are held in a front rack position throughout the squat. A key component in double dumbbell front squat workouts, this variation demands midline control and upright posture.

    In this workout, double dumbbell front squats strengthen the quads, glutes, and core while also testing shoulder stability and coordination. The independent loading adds an extra challenge, making it a functional and efficient choice for strength development in minimal space
