5 rounds, each for time, of:
15 box jump-overs
12 dumbbell deadlifts
9 dumbbell hang power cleans
6 dumbbell shoulder-to-overheads

Rest exactly 2 minutes between rounds.

♀ 35-lb dumbbells and a 20-inch box
♂ 50-lb dumbbells and a 24-inch box

Post time for each round to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
This twist on the Hero workout DT swaps in dumbbells and adds a spicy box jump-over, with rest after each set. Rounds will likely move faster than the barbell version since dumbbells are easier to hang onto. Use the rest to push each round like a sprint. Finish the box jump-overs, grab the dumbbells, and hang on! Keep deadlifts unbroken through all rounds. If needed, break the hang power cleans and shoulder-to-overheads into 2 sets, keeping rest breaks to 15 seconds or less — scale to maintain this. Reduce dumbbell load if needed to keep a flat back and sound shoulder position through the deadlifts and jerks. Advanced athletes: Aim for as many rounds as possible without putting the dumbbells down before moving up to a heavier load.

5 rounds for time of:
30 medicine-ball cleans
20 ring dips

♀ 14-lb medicine ball
♂ 20-lb medicine ball

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
This workout combines two movements that each pack a punch in very different ways. Expect the med-ball cleans to fatigue the lower body much quicker than you'd expect. Set a goal to move quickly through large chunks of reps before needing to take breaks. The ring dip volume is very high and will be the most difficult part of the workout for most. This movement will significantly tax the chest, shoulders, and triceps. If you're not able to perform 10-15 reps consecutively, plan to scale the reps or difficulty. Due to the volume of this workout, start conservatively, particularly for the ring dips. Do a small number of reps at a time, staying well short of muscular failure.

Intermediate option:
5 rounds for time of:
20 medicine-ball cleans
10 ring dips

Post loads to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you'll build to max loads for 5 sets of 3 power cleans. Look back at July 17 to compare your last heavy power clean attempts. Plan to gradually build up in load, starting with a challenging first set of 3 at around 70-75% of your 1-rep max. Rest 3-4 minutes between sets to maximize recovery and preparation for the next set.

♀ 35-lb dumbbells
♂ 50-lb dumbbells

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's effort is a fun, grindy dumbbell workout. Grip will be a factor, so rest as needed before hitting failure. Dumbbell loading should be moderate. Aim to finish the hang power cleans and push presses in under a minute each, and the farmers carry in under 3 minutes. This workout is most effectively and efficiently performed on a track, or somewhere you can continuously progress through 200-meter segments after completing the hang power cleans and push presses.

1 ½-bodyweight deadlifts
Bodyweight bench press
¾-bodyweight squat cleans

Compare to 241118.

Post time in comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a classic CrossFit benchmark, nicknamed "the three bars of death." Look back at Nov. 18, 2024, to compare your most recent score for Linda. The earlier rounds are a bit of a grind — go unbroken where you can, and manage your reps when you need to catch your breath. For example, singles on the squat cleans are a great way to manage your heart rate and prepare for the next round. This effort carries a high volume of weightlifting at a moderate load. Reduce the loads and/or cut some of the early rounds to bring down the total volume. If you're able, use a spotter on the bench presses — this is purely a safety consideration. If you can't find a spotter, don't push to failure; break before you think you need to.

1-rep-max clean

Compare to 250222.

Post heaviest load lifted to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a classic heavy day. Unlike last week's power clean, today's lift can be any variation of the clean that allows you to lift your heaviest load. Look back to your most recent heavy lift to help gauge this effort. Remember, heavy is relative to each individual and their capacity. Newer athletes should focus on technique and lift only as their form allows.

3 rounds for time of:
30 wall-ball shots
30 low-hang squat snatches

♀ 45-lb barbell and a 14-lb medicine ball to a 9-foot target
♂ 75-lb barbell and a 20-lb medicine ball to a 10-foot target

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a couplet of conflicting movement patterns. These two movements are purposefully paired to cause muscular fatigue, forcing you to rest. The loading isn't the issue here; it's the redundancy in the movement patterns. Back in 2009, this was a devastating workout, and to this day, it still packs a punch. The low-hang position means the barbell should stay anywhere below the knee on each rep. Scale the loading of each movement so you can maintain consistent sets of 10 or more reps.

Intermediate option:
3 rounds for time of:
25 wall-ball shots
25 low-hang squat snatches

Power clean 3-3-2-2-1-1-1-1 reps

Compare to similar 221204.

Post loads to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Build to max loads for a 3-, 2-, and 1-rep power clean over 8 sets. Start your first set of 3 around 70-75% of your 1-rep max and build gradually from there. Sets of 3 and 2 should take no more than 20 seconds — touch-and-go or singles. One set every 3-4 minutes gives plenty of rest, allows you to lift with a buddy, and keeps equipment needs low. Reference your last heavy power clean day to help navigate loading.

Eva Strong

With a partner, 5 rounds for time of:

19 toes-to-bars (total)
2 clean and jerks (total)
400-meter run (together)

Share all work and complete the run together.

♀ 135-lb barbell
♂ 205-lb barbell

Compare to 220618.

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, we honor Eva Mireles, 44, who died on Tuesday, May 24, 2022, while shielding her fourth-grade students from a gunman at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. Mireles’ co-teacher, Irma Garcia, and 19 students were also killed in the shooting. Mireles was in her 17th year of teaching in the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District, and held certifications in special education and bilingual education. In addition to regularly running before school, she also enjoyed hiking. Friends and relatives recall she could be found in her CrossFit gym almost every day after school. In 2022, she participated in the CrossFit Open for the ninth time.

Eva Strong is a partner workout where each athlete completes 24 double-unders, then works with their partner to split 19 toes-to-bars and 2 clean and jerks before running together. Each round should take less than 5 minutes to complete. To account for fatigue later in the workout, aim to keep the first few rounds under 4 minutes.

Scale the volume and load so each movement takes no more than 1 minute to complete. This should leave approximately 2:00-2:30 for the run while keeping the overall round time under 5 minutes. Scale the double-unders to single-unders or penguin taps, and reduce the range of motion on the toes-to-bars. The goal is to maintain steady movement, efficient transitions, and consistent pacing throughout the workout.

Intermediate option:

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today is a monostructural benchmark — a 5K run! Pacing is everything in a 5K. Resist the urge to go out too fast. Instead, settle into your rhythm during the first 800 meters and build from there. Your legs may still be feeling the effects of yesterday’s rope climbs and hang squat cleans, so we’ll make sure to get them loosened up during the warm-up.

Regardless of your goal, focus on maintaining a consistent pace throughout the run or executing a negative split by starting slightly slower and finishing faster. Avoid the common mistake of sprinting the first half of the workout only to fade significantly in the second half. Consistency and patience early on will set you up for a strong finish.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a descending-ladder couplet of hang squat cleans and rope climbs. Expect a serious grip challenge. The goal is to move efficiently and maintain a steady pace, with most athletes aiming to finish in 10 minutes or less, with faster athletes approaching the 6-minute mark.

Choose a moderate load for the hang squat cleans that allows you to complete each round in no more than 3 sets. Whether you are experienced with rope climbs or still developing the skill, spend time on the rope during your warm-up and use the opportunity to refine your technique. Select a variation that appropriately challenges your current ability while allowing you to maintain consistency throughout the workout.

15-12-9 reps for load of:
Clean and jerks

Perform all unbroken touch-and-go reps. There is no time limit; rest as needed between sets.

Compare to 250114.

Post load to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
This benchmark workout builds stamina and strength throughout the entire body. The goal is to lift as heavy as possible without failing a rep, demonstrating major technical faults, or putting the barbell down. The key to accomplishing all three is deliberate movement on every rep and finding grit as each set progresses. In the set of 15, reps 1-7 should feel manageable, reps 8-12 will require focus and challenge your barbell stamina, and reps 13-15 should test both your mental toughness and movement quality under fatigue. Plan for 3-4 minutes of rest between sets and use the same load for the entire workout. Fatigue will accumulate with each set, but the descending rep scheme is designed to help you maintain the same weight with solid mechanics throughout.

♀ 135-lb barbell
♂ 225-lb barbell

Compare to 120428.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout revisits a 2012 Regionals event. On the rower, focus on your breathing and maintaining a tall posture. Use the opening few hundred meters to settle into your pace. This shouldn’t feel like a 2K PR attempt, but continue to push the pace as best as you can throughout.

Stay smooth and controlled on the single-leg squats to minimize missed reps. The barbell loading should feel moderate to heavy, allowing for consistent sets of 3-5 unbroken hang power cleans. Manage your sets with short, deliberate breaks as needed. Opening with overly aggressive sets will only lead to long rest periods later in the workout.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is an ascending-load front squat ladder paired with lateral burpees over the bar. Each set runs on its own 2:30 clock, and your score will be the total working time across all five couplets. The front squat reps decrease as the load increases, while the burpees remain the same throughout. Each interval should take about 1:30-2:15 to complete, so scale the loading accordingly.

Move directly into the burpees as soon as you finish your squats. Settle into a steady rhythm and work to maintain a consistent pace from round to round. Have your plates organized and ready so you can quickly adjust the bar before the next interval begins. The barbell starts from the floor, and the first rep of each set may be taken as a squat clean.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s Hero workout honors Laura Schwartzenberger, 43, who was killed while executing a search warrant related to a violent crime against children. Schwartzenberger, who joined the FBI in 2005, was fatally shot by a suspected child pornographer on Feb. 2, 2021, in Sunrise, Florida.

Plan to move through each round with your partner, splitting the reps as needed. One athlete works while the other rests. Choose a moderate barbell load that allows for quick singles back and forth, though advanced athletes may be able to hold larger touch-and-go sets. The row should take no longer than 3 minutes, and the burpees should take no longer than 2 minutes each round. Scale the loading and volume as needed so both partners can complete at least half of the reps for each movement every round. If you’re unable to complete the workout with a partner, perform it solo.

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, we hit the fun Nasty Girls benchmark workout that combines moderately heavy weightlifting and gymnastics. Look back at your previous score to compare your last effort. This should be a sub-15-minute workout, and advanced athletes should push to finish in sub-10 minutes. Nasty Girls requires skill and strength endurance. Avoid going to failure, even if it means strategically resting a few reps before you think you need to. Remain smooth and steady on the air squats, while still shooting to complete the reps in 2 minutes or less. Scale muscle-ups to the most challenging gymnastics pulling movement you can perform for at least 3 unbroken reps. Choose a hang power clean load that allows you to chip through the reps in 1-3 sets each round.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, we have a very grip- and shoulder-heavy workout. Even with the heavy dumbbells, try to keep moving with minimal breaks through all movements. Aim to complete the jump rope in under 2:30 each time, and the dumbbell movements in no more than 6 sets each. As you get farther into this one, use your legs and hips to keep the weight moving. This workout will not get easier each round, so make sure you are confident with the loads and scales you select.

Post total reps to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is 8 sprint efforts. Sprint the 100 meters as quickly as you can, get to the barbell, and complete as many clean and jerks as possible before the minute is up. Choose a light-to-moderate barbell load that allows you to cycle through reps quickly for touch-and-go reps. Practice barbell cycling in the warm-up to enhance your efficiency. Aim to complete the sprint in 30 seconds or faster, giving you around 30 seconds for clean and jerks.

Hang squat clean 2-2-2-2-2-2-2 reps

Compare to 240115.

Post loads to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you'll build to a heavy double hang squat clean — plan to have some fun and lift heavy. Look back at your last 2-rep hang squat clean in January 2024 to help gauge your effort and goal for the day. Hit the first set around 70-75% of your 1-rep-max clean. Advanced athletes should build to a max for the day, potentially hitting a PR. If this movement is new for you, plan to find a challenging load that still allows you to practice pulling under the bar quickly with sound mechanics.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx'd.

8 rounds for time of:
5 box jump-overs
5 hang power cleans

♀ 155-lb barbell and a 24-inch box
♂ 225-lb barbell and a 30-inch box

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, we have taller box jumps paired with heavy hang power cleans. Expect this to be a very high-power output workout that will challenge you more with each round. Choose a weight and height that allows you to maintain unbroken sets through the first several rounds. Be prepared to take a quick break after each set of box jumps to ensure you’re ready for that heavy barbell. Set that hook grip and get full hip extension on each rep.

♂ 135/155/175-lb barbell and a 24-inch box

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s effort is two descending rep-scheme efforts with a 5-minute rest between each. Go into each piece with a “sprint” mentality. In the first part, the loading of the cleans increases, and the reps decrease. Expect the pulling redundancy to be in full effect. Focus on getting full hip extension and driving your elbows around the bar. In both efforts, push the pace on the rower as you are able. Work hard and have fun today.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a longer endurance-based effort. Expect the first bike to challenge not only your endurance but your mental fortitude. Look to maintain a consistent pace on the bike. Find an RPM or cadence you can hold based on the distance. Higher cadences will be harder to hold for longer durations. Aim to perform the cleans in 3 sets or fewer. On each farmers carry, try to go a little further than you want to. Ultimately, try not to put the kettlebells down more than four times on any carry. On that last bike, give it one last push with everything you have left.

Open Workout 18.1

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 20 minutes of:
8 toes-to-bars
10 single-dumbbell hang clean and jerks*
12/14-calorie row

*Perform 5 clean and jerks with one arm, and then switch.

♀ 35-lb dumbbell
♂ 50-lb dumbbell

Compare to 180223.

Post total reps completed to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is Open Workout 18.1. In 2018, the men's and women's high scores were 15+ rounds (487 reps for men and 452 reps for women), and the average score in 2018 was about 9 rounds for both men and women. The trick to this workout lies in rowing just fast enough to complete the work quickly without burning out. Scale the toes-to-bars to hanging knee raises or lying leg raises on the floor to finish each round's reps in under 90 seconds. Perform 5 dumbbell hang clean and jerks on each arm, ideally selecting a load that allows you to finish each round in 1 minute or less. That said, even if you can't hit the target score, consider performing this workout Rx'd as long as you can maintain sound mechanics and are up for the challenge.

Intermediate option:
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 20 minutes of:
8 hanging knee raises (chest level)
10 single-dumbbell hang clean and jerks*
12/14-calorie row

♀ 125-lb barbell
♂ 185-lb barbell

Post total rounds and reps to the comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a weightlifting and gymnastics couplet. The loading of the barbell should be moderate to heavy. Performing singles is totally appropriate; however, if you are able to perform a few touch-and-go sets, get after it. For the L-sit holds, choose a variation that allows you to complete your holds in 3 sets or fewer. Expect the fatigue of your hip flexors and your abdominals to make the hang power cleans more difficult.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you'll take on a descending-rep triplet that combines moderately heavy barbell work, paired with burpees. Choose a barbell load that allows you to move through the front squats in no more than 3 sets each round and perform quick singles on the power cleans. Plan to complete the largest set of lateral burpees over the bar in no more than 90 seconds.
