How do you perform the Hannah workout

Learn how to crush this workout

To perform the workout Hannah, start by preparing for 13 rounds of the designated exercises. Begin with 20 kettlebell swings, ensuring you hinge at the hips and keep your back straight as you swing the kettlebell to at least eye level.

Next, transition into 7 burpee box jump overs. Start with a burpee, kicking your feet back and then jumping forward, followed by a jump over the box. Make sure to land softly on the other side for safety and control.

Finally, for the cash-out, run a total of 2,008 meters together, pacing yourselves to finish strong. Focus on maintaining a steady rhythm while encouraging each other throughout the workout.

How do you scale the workout

The wod "Hannah" can be done by everyone

Scale the kettlebell weight to 8–12 kg for a more manageable workout. If needed, reduce the number of kettlebell swings to 15 or 10 reps to maintain proper form.

For the burpee box jump overs, consider stepping up instead of jumping or lowering the box height to 16 inches. Alternatively, reduce the number of repetitions to 5 or 3 per round.

Instead of the full 2,008 meters run, scale back to a distance of 1,600 meters or 1 mile. Beginners can also opt for a brisk walk or jog to ensure they complete the workout comfortably within 14–20 minutes.

How do you score the WOD

See if you beat your friends in the wod "Hannah"

Your score for the benchmark workout called Hannah is calculated by adding the total number of full rounds completed to any additional repetitions completed after your last full round.

In this workout, you will perform 13 rounds consisting of 20 kettlebell swings and 7 burpee box jump overs, followed by a cash-out of a 2,008 meter run together as a team.

For example, if you complete 10 full rounds plus 5 kettlebell swings and 3 burpee box jump overs, your score would be 10 rounds plus those additional reps, resulting in a total of 10 + 5 + 3 = 18 completed reps.

To achieve the best score, focus on maintaining your form and pacing throughout the workout.

What are the tips and strategy to use

Here is how to gain an edge in the "Hannah"

Begin by pacing yourself to avoid burning out too early; instead of rushing, find a rhythm that you can maintain throughout the workout.

Focus on efficient kettlebell swings by keeping your core engaged and using your hips to generate momentum, which can help reduce shoulder fatigue.

During burpee box jump overs, maintain a steady pace and try to land softly to minimize impact and conserve energy. Utilize controlled breathing to enhance endurance.

For the cash-out run, aim for a steady, manageable pace — try to finish strong but avoid starting too quickly to ensure you have energy left for the final push.

Lastly, stay mentally focused and visualize each segment, breaking the workout into achievable parts to keep motivation high.

What kind of exercises are in the Hannah The 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.

  • 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.

  • kettlebell swing

    The kettlebell swing is a powerful hip-hinge movement that builds posterior chain strength, core stability, and cardiovascular endurance. A go-to in any kettlebell swing workout, it’s known for improving explosiveness, grip, and conditioning in one efficient motion.

    In this workout, kettlebell swings train your glutes, hamstrings, and shoulders, while developing rhythm and control. Whether Russian or American style, the kettlebell swing is a versatile tool for both beginners and advanced athletes.

  • 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.
