What is a "on-off" 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 is an "on-off" workout?

An on-off workout is a time-based training format where you alternate between work periods and rest periods — for example, 1 minute on, 1 minute off. In an on-off CrossFit workout, your goal is to perform as many reps as possible during the "on" phase, then recover during the "off" phase before the next interval begins.

This format helps you push hard during the work period, knowing you have built-in rest. It's especially useful for building intensity, power output, and recovery efficiency.

Why Try an On-Off CrossFit Workout?

  • Encourages maximum effort during work intervals

  • Helps improve work-to-rest ratio awareness and recovery speed

  • Perfect for training sprints, weightlifting, or gymnastics under fatigue

  • Easily adaptable to all fitness levels and time domains

Whether you're doing 30 seconds on / 30 seconds off or longer 2–3 minute intervals, an on-off workout is a powerful way to train smart and hard — one round at a time. Ideal for interval-based CrossFit workouts, EMOM-style sprints, and team formats.

What kind of exercises are in this workout?

  • 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 facing burpee

    The bar-facing burpee is a high-intensity movement that combines a chest-to-floor burpee with a two-foot jump over a barbell. It's a CrossFit staple used in many bar facing burpee workouts to build explosive power, agility, and full-body conditioning.

    In this workout, bar-facing burpees spike your heart rate, test your coordination, and demand mental grit — especially when paired with heavy lifting or fast-paced intervals. Simple, brutal, and effective.

  • hang power clean

    The hang power clean is a dynamic barbell movement that builds explosive power, coordination, and full-body strength. A staple in many hang power clean workouts, it focuses on lifting the bar from the “hang” position (above the knees) to the shoulders — without a full squat.

    In this workout, hang power cleans challenge your hip drive, grip, and timing, making them ideal for both strength work and high-intensity conditioning. Whether you're cycling reps or going heavy, the hang power clean develops efficient movement and athletic explosiveness.

  • shoulder to overhead

    The shoulder to overhead movement trains your ability to drive a load from the shoulders to a locked-out position overhead using one of several techniques — strict press, push press, push jerk, or split jerk. It's a staple in any shoulder to overhead workout for building upper body strength, power, and stability.

    In this workout, shoulder to overhead challenges your shoulders, triceps, and core, especially under fatigue. It’s a versatile movement that allows athletes to choose the most efficient technique to move weight overhead — depending on the load and intensity.

  • power clean

    The power clean is a fast, explosive lift that develops full-body strength, speed, and coordination. A staple in Olympic lifting and functional fitness, it’s central to many high-intensity power clean workouts.

    In this workout, power cleans train your hip extension, pulling power, and barbell control, making them ideal for improving athletic performance and barbell cycling. Whether done heavy or for reps, the power clean is key for building functional power and explosiveness.

  • jerk

    The jerk is a powerful Olympic lifting movement that drives a barbell from shoulder to overhead with explosive force. Central to advanced jerk workouts, it typically follows a clean and is executed by dipping and driving the bar overhead—either with a split stance or power stance.

    In this workout, the jerk builds overhead strength, power, and coordination while demanding precision and speed. It trains the legs, core, and shoulders simultaneously, making it an essential movement for athletes looking to improve explosive strength and total-body stability under load.
