Sprints
Sit-ups
Air Squats
Push-ups
Box Jumps

Reps: 1-2-3-4-5-6

Execution and Focus

AMRAP 20 is a challenging and dynamic workout that incorporates a diverse set of movements to test your overall fitness. This benchmark workout includes sprints, sit-ups, air squats, push-ups, and box jumps, designed to keep your heart rate elevated while engaging multiple muscle groups. The structure of performing these movements in an "As Many Rounds As Possible" format over 20 minutes emphasizes endurance, strength, and agility. Each movement plays a crucial role: sprints push cardiovascular limits, sit-ups engage the core, air squats build lower body strength, push-ups test upper body endurance, and box jumps enhance explosive power. Together, these elements deliver a comprehensive workout suitable for athletes of various levels.

Strategy and Finish

Begin AMRAP 20 with a focus on maintaining a sustainable pace, especially in the first half of the workout. Aim for a rhythm that allows you to cycle through the movements efficiently, with each round ideally taking between 1-2 minutes. Prioritize transitions between exercises to minimize downtime. Keep your core engaged during sit-ups and use proper form during air squats and push-ups to maximize efficiency and reduce fatigue. Box jumps can be tackled with either rebound jumps or step-downs based on your skill level. In the final minutes, push through any mental barriers and maximize your effort — this is where you can gain significant ground in your score and ensure a powerful finish to your workout.

How do you scale the workout

The wod "Armistice 2013" can be done by everyone

For the AMRAP 20 workout, consider scaling the sprints by reducing the distance to 200 meters or switching to a brisk walk or jog if necessary. For sit-ups, you can perform them with legs elevated or use an ab mat for support.

In terms of air squats, focus on a range of motion that feels comfortable; you can use a bench or box to assist with depth if needed. Push-ups can be modified to knee push-ups or incline push-ups against a wall or bench.

For box jumps, decrease the height of the box or switch to step-ups to ensure safety and maintain form. Lastly, beginners might aim for a lower total workout time, targeting around 14 minutes, or scaling the reps to 5 for each movement.

What kind of exercises are in the Armistice 2013 The workout?

  • sit-up

    Sit-ups are a classic core exercise where the athlete moves from a lying position to an upright seated position, engaging the abdominal muscles throughout. A common feature in sit-up workouts, this foundational movement builds endurance and strength in the front of the core.

    In this workout, sit-ups target the rectus abdominis and hip flexors, improving trunk flexion and midline control. They’re easy to scale, require minimal space, and can be performed for reps, speed, or volume—making them a versatile choice for conditioning and core development.

  • Box jump

    The box jump is a plyometric movement that builds explosive power, coordination, and lower body strength. It’s a key component in many high-intensity box jump workouts, often used to develop speed, agility, and stamina.

    In this workout, box jumps challenge your legs, core, and cardiovascular system, while also training quick reaction and balance. Whether performed at a moderate pace or in sprint intervals, the box jump is a powerful tool for improving athletic performance.

  • 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.

  • air squat

    The air squat is a fundamental bodyweight movement that builds lower body strength, mobility, and endurance. As a key component of many air squat workouts, it targets the quads, glutes, hamstrings, and core—all without equipment.

    In this workout, air squats help develop proper squat mechanics, balance, and muscular stamina, making them perfect for warm-ups, high-rep conditioning, or scaling strength-based movements.

  • running

    Running is one of the most effective ways to build cardiovascular endurance, leg strength, and mental toughness. A foundational element in many running workouts, it adds intensity and pacing challenges to both short sprints and longer distances.

    In this workout, running boosts your engine, footwork, and recovery capacity, especially when paired with strength or skill-based movements. Whether you're hitting meters or minutes, running is essential for building a well-rounded fitness base.
