Definition

A workout format aiming for as many rounds or repetitions as possible in a fixed time. In CrossFit programming, this term specifies how work and time are organized rather than the physiological effect by itself. The same format can produce very different demands depending on exercise selection, loading, movement standards, duration and athlete scaling.

Practical use

Read the full workout prescription before comparing scores. Keep movement standards and scaling consistent when using repeated workouts as benchmarks.
