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?

  • dumbbell snatch

    The dumbbell snatch is a powerful, full-body movement that builds explosiveness, coordination, and core strength. Commonly used in CrossFit, a dumbbell snatch workout challenges both strength and endurance while training one side of the body at a time.

    In this workout, dumbbell snatches help increase intensity, improve unilateral balance, and add variety to your training. Whether you're a beginner or advanced athlete, the dumbbell snatch workout format can be easily scaled and is highly effective for total-body conditioning.

  • push up

    The push-up is a foundational bodyweight movement that strengthens the chest, shoulders, triceps, and core. A staple in any push-up workout, it’s effective, scalable, and requires no equipment — making it perfect for all fitness levels.

    In this workout, push-ups develop upper body endurance, stability, and control, especially under fatigue. Whether performed strict, hand-release, or elevated, the push-up is a timeless movement that builds strength and resilience.

  • dumbbell clean

    The dumbbell clean is a powerful movement that develops explosiveness, coordination, and full-body strength, using one or two dumbbells. Common in functional fitness and dumbbell clean workouts, it trains hip extension, pulling power, and control from the ground to the shoulders.

    In this workout, dumbbell cleans challenge your grip, timing, and endurance, while offering a versatile alternative to barbell lifting. Whether performed single-arm or double-arm, the dumbbell clean is ideal for building functional strength and conditioning.

  • box jump over

    The box jump over is a fast-paced plyometric movement that builds explosive power, agility, and cardiovascular endurance. Unlike a standard box jump, you jump onto and over the box, increasing intensity and coordination. It’s a go-to in many box jump over workouts for raising heart rate and testing athleticism.

    In this workout, box jump overs challenge your lower body drive, balance, and footwork — especially when performed under fatigue. Whether jumping laterally or facing the box, the box jump over keeps you moving with speed and precision.

  • overhead lunge

    The overhead lunge combines lower-body strength with upper-body stability, making it a full-body movement that builds core control, shoulder stability, and leg endurance. Common in overhead lunge workouts, it challenges balance and mobility under load.

    In this workout, overhead lunges train unilateral strength, improve posture, and reinforce strong, functional movement patterns. Whether performed with a barbell, dumbbell, or kettlebell, the overhead lunge is a powerful addition to any training session.

  • double dumbbell deadlift

    The double dumbbell deadlift is a foundational strength movement that targets the hamstrings, glutes, back, and core—using a dumbbell in each hand. It’s a great alternative to the barbell and a staple in many double dumbbell deadlift workouts.

    In this workout, double dumbbell deadlifts develop posterior chain strength, grip endurance, and movement control, all while allowing for more natural range of motion and easier scaling. Ideal for building strength and stability with minimal equipment.
