Workout Description

AMRAP 14 mins 7 Barbell bench press, 135/95 3 Wall walks 7 Barbell bench press 15 Box jump over

Why This Workout Is Medium

This 14-minute AMRAP combines moderate barbell loading (135/95 bench press) with skill-based movements (wall walks) and explosive work (box jump overs). The repeating cycle of 7 bench press + 3 wall walks + 7 bench press + 15 box jump overs creates natural recovery windows between demanding elements. Bench press fatigue doesn't significantly interfere with wall walks or box jumps. Most average CrossFitters will complete 3-4 full rounds, with manageable pacing. The workout is challenging but not overwhelming for the target demographic.

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (7/10): Repeated bench press and box jump overs accumulate significant muscular fatigue. The AMRAP format forces sustained output across multiple rounds, testing upper body and leg endurance.
  • Power (7/10): Box jump overs are inherently explosive movements. Bench press at moderate loads can be driven explosively. The combination creates meaningful power demand throughout the workout.
  • Endurance (6/10): 14-minute AMRAP creates sustained cardiovascular demand. Continuous cycling through bench press and box jumps maintains elevated heart rate, though moderate loads prevent maximal aerobic stress.
  • Speed (6/10): AMRAP format incentivizes quick transitions and rapid cycling. Minimal rest between movements demands efficient pacing and movement speed to maximize rounds in 14 minutes.
  • Strength (5/10): Moderate barbell load (135/95) requires meaningful force production but isn't maximal effort. Wall walks demand core and shoulder strength, creating a balanced strength component.
  • Flexibility (4/10): Wall walks require shoulder mobility and thoracic extension. Bench press demands shoulder and chest mobility. Box jump overs need ankle and hip mobility, but demands remain moderate.

Movements

  • Box Jump-Over
  • Wall Walk

Benchmark Notes

Wall walks are the primary skill bottleneck, slowing transitions significantly under fatigue; bench press at 135 lb becomes a limiting factor for less experienced athletes. L5 (~3.5 rounds) reflects moderate cycling on bench with brief breaks and steady wall walk execution.

Modality Profile

Barbell Bench Press is Weightlifting (external load). Wall Walk is Gymnastics (bodyweight movement). Box Jump-Over is Gymnastics (bodyweight plyometric). Distribution: 2 Gymnastics movements, 1 Weightlifting movement = G: 33%, W: 67%
