The Workout description

Workout Overview

“Push, Lunge, Run, Repeat” is a two-part for-time workout structured around pressing power, leg fatigue, aerobic output, and grip endurance. The first 4 rounds emphasize overhead stability and pacing on the run. The second half is a mix of full-body power and holds, demanding grit and control from start to finish.

Execution and Focus

Part one includes 15 double dumbbell push presses – Intermediate: @2x15/22.5 | RX: @2x17.5/25 – paired with a challenging variation of reverse lunges: one DB on the shoulder, one overhead. After 15 reps, athletes hit a 400-meter run, demanding recovery on the move. Part two picks up with 10 burpees over dumbbells, 12 alternating snatches, and a 15-meter farmer walk – Intermediate: @2x24/32 | RX: @2x28/40 – loading grip and posture when fatigued.

Strategy and Finish

Break push presses into 2–3 quick sets if needed to preserve stability for lunges. Use the run to manage breathing and shake out the shoulders. Burpees should be fast but not frantic, snatches smooth and deliberate, and farmer carries steady and upright. This for time workout features double dumbbell push press workout, reverse lunge workout, running workout, burpee over dumbbell workout, dumbbell snatch workout, and farmer walk workout in a complete test of stamina and composure.

What is a "for time" workout?

A for time workout is a classic CrossFit format where the goal is to complete a set list of exercises as fast as possible. Your time becomes your score, making each for time CrossFit workout a race against the clock — and yourself.

In a typical for time workout, you'll perform a fixed number of reps or rounds of movements (e.g., squats, push-ups, burpees, or barbell lifts) and finish them as quickly as you can while maintaining good form. This format pushes you to work hard, manage fatigue, and develop both conditioning and mental toughness.

Why Try a "For Time" CrossFit Workout?

  • Builds intensity and urgency into your training

  • Encourages better pacing, efficiency, and recovery awareness

  • Easy to track progress over time — beat your previous score!

  • Works well for individual or group competition-style workouts

Whether you're doing a short sprint or a long chipper, the for time CrossFit workout format is a powerful way to test your limits and stay motivated in your training.

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • dumbbell snatch

    The dumbbell snatch is a powerful, full-body movement that builds explosiveness, coordination, and core strength. Commonly used in CrossFit, a dumbbell snatch workout challenges both strength and endurance while training one side of the body at a time.

    In this workout, dumbbell snatches help increase intensity, improve unilateral balance, and add variety to your training. Whether you're a beginner or advanced athlete, the dumbbell snatch workout format can be easily scaled and is highly effective for total-body conditioning.

  • farmer walk

    The farmer walk is a classic loaded carry where an athlete walks while holding heavy implements at their sides—usually dumbbells, kettlebells, or farmer handles. A staple in farmer walk workouts, this movement builds real-world strength and mental grit.

    In this workout, farmer walks strengthen the grip, traps, core, and legs while reinforcing posture and bracing under tension. It's one of the simplest yet most brutally effective tools for developing functional strength and work capacity.

  • Reverse Lunges

    Reverse lunges are a joint-friendly, unilateral lower-body movement that emphasizes glute and hamstring engagement. A staple in reverse lunge workouts, this exercise involves stepping backward into a lunge, promoting better balance and alignment than forward variations.

    In this workout, reverse lunges build strength, stability, and coordination—especially in the hips and knees. They reduce anterior knee stress while developing single-leg control, making them ideal for injury prevention, muscle balance, and functional athletic performance. Scalable with dumbbells, kettlebells, or bodyweight.

  • 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.

  • 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.
