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?

  • Double under

    The double under is a jump rope skill where the rope passes under your feet twice per jump, building coordination, speed, and cardiovascular endurance. It’s a popular movement in high-intensity double under workouts, often used to spike heart rate and improve timing under fatigue.

    In this workout, double unders challenge your footwork, rhythm, and breathing, making them a key tool for improving overall conditioning. Whether you're linking sets or working on consistency, double unders are a fast-paced way to level up your engine.

  • wall walk

    The wall walk is a challenging bodyweight movement that builds shoulder strength, core stability, and coordination. Popular in gymnastics-style training and wall walk workouts, it requires control and confidence moving upside down.

    In this workout, wall walks train overhead pressing strength and midline engagement while developing skills for handstand-based movements. Whether scaled or RX, the wall walk is a highly effective way to build upper body endurance and body awareness.

  • Single under

    The single under is a jump rope movement where the rope passes under your feet once per jump. It’s a foundational skill often used in warm-ups, scaling options, or high-rep single under workouts to build coordination, rhythm, and cardio endurance.

    In this workout, single unders provide a low-impact, accessible way to boost heart rate and improve timing. Whether you're just starting out or mixing them with more complex skills, the single under is a valuable movement for all fitness levels.

  • rope climb

    The rope climb is a classic functional fitness movement that develops upper body pulling strength, grip endurance, and core control. Frequently featured in rope climb workouts, it challenges both technique and toughness.

    In this workout, rope climbs train your lats, arms, and abs, while demanding coordination and efficient footwork. Whether performed legless or with a J-hook, the rope climb builds confidence and capacity in gymnastics-style pulling.

  • rope pull

    The rope pull is a scalable alternative to rope climbs that builds upper body pulling strength, grip endurance, and core stability. Common in rope pull workouts, it’s typically performed from a seated or standing position, pulling the rope hand-over-hand for distance or reps.

    In this workout, rope pulls train your lats, biceps, and midline, while mimicking the movement pattern of a rope climb without leaving the ground. They’re perfect for building vertical pulling capacity in a safe, accessible way.

  • front rack walking lunge

    The front rack walking lunge is a demanding unilateral movement that combines strength, stability, and mobility. Common in front rack walking lunge workouts, it involves stepping forward into a lunge while holding weight in the front rack—typically with dumbbells, kettlebells, or a barbell.

    In this workout, front rack walking lunges strengthen the legs, glutes, and core while challenging posture and balance. The front-loaded position increases midline engagement and mimics sport and life movements. It's an effective way to build functional strength, coordination, and resilience—one step at a time.

  • cluster

    A cluster is a hybrid movement that combines a squat clean with a thruster—taking the bar or dumbbells from the ground to overhead through a full squat and press. Popular in high-intensity cluster workouts, this movement is a total-body test of strength, stamina, and grit.

    In this workout, clusters train explosive power, front rack mobility, and overhead pressing endurance. They’re metabolically demanding, making them ideal for conditioning pieces and strength circuits. Whether performed with a barbell or dumbbells, clusters push your limits and deliver full-body results.
