EMOM WORKOUTS

FAST. FOCUSED. FUNCTIONAL

What does EMOM mean?

EMOM stands for “Every Minute on the Minute,” a popular workout structure in CrossFit and functional fitness training. In this type of training, you perform a specific number of reps of an exercise at the start of every minute. Once you complete the reps, you rest for the remainder of the minute before starting again when the next minute begins. This format challenges both physical endurance and mental focus, allowing you to balance intensity with recovery.
