Workout Description

30 Min AMRAP 400m Run 15 Air Squats 10 Push Ups 5 Strict Pull Ups

Why This Workout Is Medium

This 30-minute AMRAP combines bodyweight movements with moderate volume and built-in recovery. The 400m run provides natural rest between rounds, allowing grip and shoulder recovery before pull-ups. While the continuous 30-minute format creates fatigue accumulation, the simple movements and light loading mean most average CrossFitters can sustain 4-5 rounds as prescribed. The limiting factor is aerobic capacity and muscular endurance, not skill or heavy loads.

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (8/10): High-volume repetition scheme across multiple rounds tests muscular endurance of legs, chest, shoulders, and back under cumulative fatigue.
  • Endurance (7/10): 30-minute AMRAP with continuous 400m runs and bodyweight movements demands sustained cardiovascular output and aerobic capacity throughout the entire duration.
  • Speed (6/10): Quick transitions between movements and maintaining consistent cycling pace throughout 30 minutes is critical for maximizing rounds completed.
  • Flexibility (3/10): Air squats require moderate hip and ankle mobility; pull-ups demand shoulder flexibility; overall mobility demands are basic to moderate.
  • Strength (2/10): Bodyweight-only movements with moderate rep ranges prioritize endurance over maximal force production; minimal strength stimulus.
  • Power (2/10): Steady-paced AMRAP format emphasizes sustained output over explosive movement; minimal power development stimulus present.

Movements

  • Push-Up
  • Air Squat
  • Run
  • Strict Pull-Up

Benchmark Notes

Strict pull-ups are the primary limiter — even intermediate athletes break these into singles under fatigue, costing significant time per round. L5 (~7 rounds) reflects a consistent athlete who can string 2-3 strict pull-ups per set but slows noticeably in the back half of the 30 minutes.

Modality Profile

4 total movements: Air Squat (G), Push-Up (G), Strict Pull-Up (G) = 3 Gymnastics movements; Run (M) = 1 Monostructural movement. 3/4 = 75% Gymnastics, 1/4 = 25% Monostructural, 0% Weightlifting.
