We map out ten rungs—from Rookie to Pro—by estimating how much work a workout usually takes, using trusted benchmark WODs and smart fatigue adjustments. Level 5 is where most everyday CrossFitters land, and the color gradient shows how scores spread from early levels on the left to top-tier finishes on the right.This is a descending ladder workout with increasing deadlift loads and decreasing reps, combined with wall balls and rowing. Round 1: 20 deadlifts at 185/120 (40-50 sec) + 40 wall balls (80-100 sec) + 500m row (85-100 sec) = 205-250 sec. Round 2: 16 deadlifts at 205/135 (35-42 sec) + 32 wall balls (64-80 sec) + 500m row (88-105 sec) = 187-227 sec. Round 3: 12 deadlifts at 225/155 (28-35 sec) + 24 wall balls (48-60 sec) + 500m row (90-110 sec) = 166-205 sec. Round 4: 8 deadlifts at 255/165 (22-28 sec) + 16 wall balls (32-40 sec) + 500m row (92-115 sec) = 146-183 sec. Round 5: 4 deadlifts at 275/180 (12-16 sec) + 8 wall balls (16-20 sec) + 500m row (95-120 sec) = 123-156 sec. Applied fatigue multipliers: Round 1 (1.0x), Round 2 (1.1x), Round 3 (1.2x), Round 4 (1.3x), Round 5 (1.4x). Added transition time between movements: 5-15 seconds per transition (15 transitions total = 75-225 sec). Total time range: Elite 920-1100 sec, Recreational 1500-2200 sec. The workout gets progressively more challenging with heavier deadlifts despite fewer reps, creating a unique pacing challenge.
