You're not always going to be able to make it to your gym — but that doesn't mean you should miss your WOD.

Skip out on the big weights and barbells and check out these CrossFit workouts to do at home. You'll need basic implements like a jump rope and pull-up bar for a few of the WODs, but most of them can be completed with just your bodyweight.

If you're just starting out in the CrossFit world, don't be afraid to adjust any of the workouts for reps or time.

20 minutes, as many reps as possible (AMRAP)

  • 10 Pushups
  • 15 squats

    Set a timer for 20 minutes. Complete as many rounds as you can before the clock runs out.

    Every minute on the minute (EMOM) for 30 minutes

    • 5 pull-ups
    • 10 push-ups
    • 15 squats

      For CrossFit newbies, EMOM means that you'll perform a round of the exercises at the start of every minute, resting until the start of the next 60 seconds. That will get harder, and eventually you might not have any time to rest.

      If you start running behind the clock, finish out the period at your own pace, counting the number of rounds you can get in before the timer sounds.

      • Situps

        You'll need a jump rope for the double-unders. To perform situps per CrossFit specs, put the soles of your feet together and reach your arms back over your head on each rep.
