Tangle Up - Crossfit Workout

AMRAP 17

40 Single Crossovers
18 Toes to Bar
15 Cal Bike Erg
12 Double DB OH Lunges – Intermediate: @2x12,5/20 | RX: @2x15/22,5

Workout Overview

“Tangle Up” is a 17-minute grinder with a sneaky mix of coordination, gymnastic stamina, and overhead control. The jump rope crossovers are a high-skill test right out of the gate. Toes to bar and the bike erg compound midline fatigue and breathing demand, while the double dumbbell overhead lunges force balance and tension late in each round.

Execution and Focus

Use crisp timing and wrist control on the crossovers—don’t rush the jump. Toes to bar should be approached in controlled sets early. Keep your breathing calm on the bike erg; don’t sprint unless you’ve got strong lungs. For the overhead lunges, prioritize stability and avoid stepping too narrow. These reps get real fast.

Strategy and Finish

Round one should feel smooth and controlled. Aim for even pacing and minimal rest between movements. Crossovers will get harder when fatigued—stay mentally locked in. Keep transitions tight and try to increase effort each round. A strong finish comes from staying steady, not from blowing up early.

What is an "amrap" workout?

An AMRAP workout — short for "As Many Rounds (or Reps) As Possible" — is a popular format in CrossFit workouts and functional fitness training. In an AMRAP CrossFit workout, you’re given a set amount of time (e.g., 10, 12, or 20 minutes) to complete as many rounds or repetitions as possible of a specific set of exercises.

This training style is known for being simple, scalable, and highly effective. Whether you're performing a bodyweight circuit or combining barbell and cardio movements, an AMRAP workout pushes your limits and helps build endurance, strength, and mental toughness.

Why Choose an AMRAP CrossFit Workout?

  • Time-efficient: Great for busy schedules — you know exactly how long the workout takes.

  • Self-paced intensity: Go as hard as you can or focus on movement quality depending on your goal.

  • Easy to scale: Modify weights, reps, or movements to fit your fitness level.

  • Motivating structure: The challenge to beat your previous round count adds a competitive edge.

Whether you're training at home or at your CrossFit box, an AMRAP workout is a fun and functional way to boost your fitness, track your progress, and build resilience. Explore our library of AMRAP CrossFit workouts and get inspired to move!

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • single crossover

    The single crossover is a jump rope variation where the athlete crosses their arms during each jump, one rep at a time. In single crossover workouts, this skill adds variety, timing, and shoulder coordination to classic jump rope conditioning.

    In this workout, single crossovers build rhythm, footwork, and upper-body agility. They’re a fun and scalable step up from single unders, helping athletes improve timing and rope control in a cardio-focused setting.

  • T2B

    Toes to bar is a powerful gymnastics movement that targets your core, grip, lats, and hip flexors, making it a key element in many high-intensity toes to bar workouts.

    In this workout, toes to bar challenge your core strength, rhythm, and coordination while under fatigue. Whether you're kipping or going strict, it’s an essential skill for improving gymnastics capacity and midline control in CrossFit.

  • bike erg

    The BikeErg is a fan-powered cycling machine that delivers a smooth, low-impact workout focused on leg power, aerobic endurance, and pacing control. Common in BikeErg workouts, it's perfect for both steady-state conditioning and high-intensity intervals.

    In this workout, the BikeErg builds quad and glute strength, while challenging your engine and recovery. Whether you're sprinting for calories or logging meters, the BikeErg is a versatile tool for improving cardiovascular fitness in a joint-friendly way.
