Hladik - Crossfit Workout

AMRAP 25

7 Snatches - @70/35 kg
21 Bar Facing Burpees
20 Pull-Ups
Buy-Out: 1,994 meters Weighted Run - @9/6 kg

Execution and Focus

The Hladik workout, an AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible) for 25 minutes, combines a blend of strength and endurance movements to challenge athletes both physically and mentally. Participants will cycle through 7 snatches, 21 bar-facing burpees, and 20 pull-ups, pushing their limits with each round. The snatch demands explosive power and technique, while the bar-facing burpees test cardiovascular endurance and agility. Pull-ups engage the upper body, particularly the back and arms, integrating strength and stamina. This workout not only honors the Hladik Memorial Tribute but also serves as a fantastic test for athletes of various skill levels during holiday celebrations.

Strategy and Finish

Begin with a moderate pace to establish a rhythm without burning out too quickly. Each round might range from 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your fitness level. Focus on performing the snatches with solid form to avoid injury, breaking them into sets if needed. For the burpees, prioritize speed and efficiency to maintain momentum, while the pull-ups can be tackled in sets to manage fatigue. As the workout progresses, challenge yourself to maintain your pace and aim for those last few minutes to push for additional rounds — even a single extra round can significantly impact your final score in the Hladik Memorial Tribute & Holiday Workouts.

How do you perform the Hladik workout

Learn how to crush this workout

For the Hladik workout, perform an AMRAP of 25 minutes focusing on three key movements. Begin with 7 snatches, ensuring to use a weight that challenges you while maintaining proper form. Engage your hips and keep the bar close to your body throughout the lift.

Following the snatches, complete 21 bar-facing burpees. Make sure to jump over the bar with both feet together, landing softly to reduce impact on your knees. Maintain a steady rhythm as you transition between each burpee.

Next, execute 20 pull-ups, using a standard grip. Aim for full range of motion, starting from a dead hang and finishing with your chin over the bar. Keep your core tight to enhance stability.

Finally, finish with a buy-out of a 1,994-meter weighted run, selecting a challenging weight for the run to increase the intensity.

How do you scale the workout

The wod "Hladik" can be done by everyone

To scale the Hladik AMRAP 25 workout, adjust the snatch weight to a manageable level, such as 25-35 lbs for beginners, or use a lighter kettlebell. For bar-facing burpees, consider stepping back instead of jumping to reduce impact. If pull-ups are challenging, use a band for assistance or perform ring rows as an alternative. You could also reduce the pull-up reps to 10, or opt for jumping pull-ups.

For the buy-out, if running with weight proves too strenuous, reduce the weight to 10 lbs or perform a standard 1,994-meter run without added weight. Alternatively, consider rowing 500-1,000 meters as a substitution, keeping the intensity manageable.

How do you score the WOD

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

Your score in the AMRAP 25 workout named Hladik is determined by the total number of full rounds completed, along with any additional repetitions you manage to accomplish after your last full round.

Each round consists of 7 Snatches, 21 Bar Facing Burpees, and 20 Pull-Ups. It’s important to keep track of every repetition, as they all contribute to your overall score.

After finishing the last full round, if you can complete any additional reps before the 25 minutes are up, be sure to add those to your total. For instance, if you completed 5 rounds and then 3 additional snatches, your final score would be 5 rounds + 3 = 33 total reps.

Be sure to account for the 1,994-meter Weighted Run as well, as it is a significant part of the workout.

What are the tips and strategy to use

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

Begin with a steady pace for the first few rounds to gauge endurance. It's essential to maintain controlled breathing to avoid fatigue. Strategically manage your energy during each segment, especially during the snatches and burpees, as those can spike your heart rate significantly.

Utilize a strong grip for the pull-ups and consider setting manageable goals, such as breaking them into smaller sets to maintain consistency. This prevents burnout and keeps you moving.

For the weighted run buy-out, maintain a comfortable yet challenging pace. Focus on your form to avoid injury, and remember that pacing is key to a successful finish. Hydrate adequately before and during the workout.

Who are we honoring with the Workout "Hladik"

Why are we doing the "Hladik" workout?

The workout Hladik is honoring the memory of a dedicated individual who made significant contributions to their community and exemplified strength and perseverance. Through this challenging AMRAP, participants pay tribute to their legacy, reflecting on the values of resilience and determination.

Named in their honor, this workout combines multiple high-intensity movements that symbolize the hard work and dedication they embodied. By pushing through the snatches, burpees, and pull-ups, athletes not only challenge themselves physically but also remember the inspiration and impact of the person they are honoring.

What kind of exercises are in the Hladik 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.

  • 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.

  • chest to bar

    The chest-to-bar pull-up is a high-skill gymnastics movement that takes traditional pull-ups further by requiring the chest to make contact with the bar. Common in competitive CrossFit and advanced chest to bar workouts, it builds upper body strength, pulling power, and grip endurance.

    In this workout, chest-to-bar pull-ups challenge your lats, arms, core, and coordination—especially under high reps or in combination with other movements. Whether performed strict, kipping, or butterfly, chest-to-bar is a true test of bodyweight control and stamina.
