Workout Overview

“Triple Trouble” is a descending AMRAP gauntlet that combines pulling, pushing, and barbell cycling into an intense three-phase test. Starting with a 9-minute AMRAP that includes deadlifts and handstand push-ups, the workout then shrinks to 6 and 3 minutes while shedding movements. The structure forces high-rep stamina and smart pacing early, with a final sprint to empty the tank.

Execution and Focus

Open steady on the deadlifts—moderate weight means speed with control. Handstand push-ups should be broken early if volume might become a trap. Hang squat cleans demand positioning—catch low, stand tall. On the rig, if you’re switching from pull-ups to muscle-ups, commit hard and reset mentally each round. Watch the clock in transitions: 2-minute rests give you time to breathe, reset, and gear up for the next phase.

Strategy and Finish

Don’t blow up in the 9-minute opener—treat it as a controlled grind. Keep reps smooth and manageable. As the AMRAPs shrink, the intensity must rise. Try to match or exceed your round pace as you move into AMRAP 6, then treat the final 3 minutes as an all-out sprint. This format rewards smart athletes who can shift gears and stay consistent under mounting fatigue.

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?

  • handstand push-up

    The handstand push-up is a high-skill bodyweight movement that builds shoulder strength, balance, and core control. Common in advanced handstand push-up workouts, it challenges your upper body like few other movements.

    In this workout, handstand push-ups develop pressing power and gymnastic control under fatigue. Whether performed strict or kipping, the handstand push-up is a true test of body awareness and upper body stamina.

  • Pull up

    The pull-up is a foundational bodyweight movement that builds upper body strength, focusing on your back, shoulders, arms, and core. A staple in almost every pull-up workout, it's key for developing gymnastics capacity and functional pulling power.

    In this workout, pull-ups challenge your grip, coordination, and endurance — especially under fatigue. Whether strict, kipping, or butterfly, the pull-up remains one of the most effective and scalable exercises in CrossFit.

  • Deadlift

    The deadlift is one of the most effective strength movements in any fitness program. It targets the posterior chain — including your glutes, hamstrings, back, and core — making it a cornerstone of any deadlift workout.

    In this workout, deadlifts develop raw strength, posture, and pulling power. Whether you're lifting light for speed or going heavy for strength, the deadlift builds a solid foundation for both performance and injury prevention.

  • bar muscle up

    The bar muscle-up is a high-skill gymnastics movement that combines a powerful pull-up with a dip, taking you from below the bar to above it in one fluid motion. A highlight of many bar muscle up workouts, it demands upper body strength, timing, and core control.

    In this workout, bar muscle-ups challenge your grip, pulling power, and technique—making them a true test of gymnastic capacity. Whether strict or kipping, the bar muscle-up is a milestone movement in CrossFit and functional fitness.

  • hang squat clean

    The hang squat clean is a compound Olympic lift variation that begins from the hang position—above the knees—and finishes in a full front squat. Key in many hang squat clean workouts, this movement emphasizes bar control, speed under the bar, and clean mechanics without pulling from the floor.

    In this workout, hang squat cleans train explosive hip extension, front rack mobility, and leg strength. They’re especially useful for developing power, timing, and clean technique, while reducing lower back strain compared to full cleans from the floor.
