Enis - Crossfit Workout

AMRAP 31

Buy-In: 51 Burpees
Then in the remaining time, AMRAP of:
3 Bear Complexes - @61/135 lb
15/10 Cal Assault Bike
18 Pull-Ups
Every 7 minutes, complete:
51 Double Unders

Execution and Focus

AMRAP 31, also known as Enis, is designed to challenge your endurance and skill across multiple movements within a specified timeframe. The workout begins with a buy-in of 51 burpees, which sets an intense tone from the outset. Following this, athletes will engage in an AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible) of 3 bear complexes, 15/10 calories on the assault bike, and 18 pull-ups. The addition of 51 double unders every 7 minutes introduces a rhythmic jump rope element that tests cardiovascular capacity and coordination. This structured sequence allows for a demanding yet effective training session that balances strength, stamina, and skill.

Strategy and Finish

To maximize performance during AMRAP 31, begin with a sustainable pace for the burpees and avoid rushing to maintain your energy for the subsequent movements. Aim to complete each bear complex unbroken initially, and manage your breathing as fatigue sets in. On the assault bike, find a cadence that keeps your heart rate elevated but doesn’t compromise your pull-up performance. For the pull-ups, incorporate kipping or strict variations based on your proficiency. Finally, when it comes to the double unders, focus on maintaining a steady rhythm and minimize misses, as they can significantly impact your overall time. Pushing through the last few seconds of the workout can make a critical difference in your final score.

How do you perform the Enis workout

Learn how to crush this hero workout

Start with a buy-in of 51 burpees to warm up your body and elevate your heart rate. Focus on maintaining a steady rhythm throughout each burpee to maximize efficiency.

Once the burpees are complete, transition into the AMRAP portion of the workout. Perform 3 bear complexes, consisting of a power clean, front squat, push press, back squat, and another push press, using a barbell to enhance strength and stability.

Follow this with 15 calories on the assault bike for a high-intensity cardio burst. Afterward, complete 18 pull-ups, ensuring full range of motion with each repetition.

Every 7 minutes, add in 51 double unders, focusing on quick wrist movements and light jumps to maintain momentum.

How do you scale the workout

The hero wod "Enis" can be done by everyone

To scale the AMRAP 31 workout, reduce the number of burpees to a manageable level, such as 25 or even 15, to accommodate your fitness level.

For the Bear Complex, consider using lighter weights, like 30-50% of your body weight or adjust to a comfortable weight for 3 unbroken reps.

If the Assault Bike is too intense, decrease the calories to 8/5. Alternatively, substitute with a rowing machine or a brisk jog for a similar cardiovascular effect.

Scale pull-ups to jumping pull-ups or ring rows to ensure proper form and prevent injury.

For the double unders, beginners might use single unders or reduce the number to 30 to stay within their capabilities.

How do you score the WOD

See if you beat your friends in the hero wod "Enis"

Your score for the AMRAP 31 workout called Enis is calculated by adding the total number of complete rounds you finish before the time cap runs out, along with any extra repetitions performed after your last full round.

Start with the buy-in of 51 Burpees. After completing the buy-in, continue with the AMRAP of 3 Bear Complexes, 15/10 Cal Assault Bike, and 18 Pull-Ups until the time is up.

Every 7 minutes, you need to perform an additional 51 Double Unders, which can also be included in your final score if they are completed within the time limit.

Thus, if you finish 5 full rounds with additional 4 Bear Complexes, your score would be 5 rounds + 4 reps = 164 reps total.

What kind of exercises are in the Enis hero workout?

  • Burpee

    The burpee is a simple, full-body movement that combines a squat, plank, and jump into one explosive exercise. It’s a staple in nearly every burpee workout thanks to its ability to build cardio endurance, coordination, and mental toughness — fast.

    In this workout, burpees spike your heart rate, challenge your engine, and require no equipment. Whether you're doing them over a bar, onto a target, or just flat out, burpees are a true test of grit and conditioning.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
