Every Third Fire - Crossfit Workout

E3MOM 18

40 Double unders
8 Toes to bar
8 GHD sit ups
8 DB clusters – Intermediate: @12,5/20 | RX: @15/22,5
6 Burpee over DB

Workout Overview

“Every Third Fire” is an E3MOM — every 3 minutes on the minute — repeated for 6 rounds. It’s a crisp sequence that starts with double unders and moves through midline work, dumbbell conditioning, and burpee aggression. Your goal is to finish each round in under 3 minutes, leaving any leftover time as rest. But as fatigue builds, that rest window shrinks.

Execution and Focus

Start each round smooth and sharp. Double unders should be relaxed and unbroken if possible. Toes to bar and GHD sit-ups make for a spicy combo — brace and breathe through both. Dumbbell clusters are the meat of the round: stay upright and drive through the hips. The final 6 burpees over DB are your sprint closer. Move fast, but clean. Use your rest wisely before the next round.

Strategy and Finish

Pace round one like a baseline test — aim to finish in under 2 minutes to earn at least a minute of rest. Focus on efficiency, especially in transitions between core and dumbbell work. Grip and breathing will be tested by round 3, so don’t go full send too early. If you're consistent through rounds 1–4, push the final two. This is about rhythm under fatigue and knowing how to move fast without blowing up.

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • burpee over dumbbell

    The burpee over dumbbell adds a dynamic twist to the classic burpee by including a lateral jump over one or two dumbbells. This movement increases intensity, coordination, and agility, making it a popular choice in fast-paced burpee over dumbbell workouts.

    In this workout, burpees over dumbbells push your cardio capacity, lower body explosiveness, and mental grit. Whether used in intervals or for total reps, this variation adds variety and challenge to any conditioning session.

  • ghd sit up

    The GHD sit-up (Glute-Ham Developer sit-up) is a high-range core movement that develops abdominal strength, hip flexor power, and midline control. Common in advanced GHD sit-up workouts, it extends beyond the typical sit-up range, demanding more from your entire trunk.

    In this workout, GHD sit-ups train explosive core strength, spinal control, and endurance, making them ideal for building gymnastic capacity and resilience. When used properly, the GHD sit-up is a powerful tool for high-level core development.
