Annie WOD timer

Annie is 50-40-30-20-10 double-unders and sit-ups, for time. No barbell, no pull-up bar: a rope, a mat, and whatever your coordination has left after the first two rounds.

How it works

  1. Start the stopwatch: 50 double-unders, 50 sit-ups, then 40 and 40, and so on down to 10.
  2. Stop the clock on the last sit-up.
  3. Trips are the whole workout. Reset your breathing before you start the rope again rather than swinging straight back in.
  4. The sit-ups are recovery for your arms but not for your heart rate; keep them steady.

Frequently asked questions

What if I cannot do double-unders?
The usual scaling is single-unders, often at a higher count, or attempts for a fixed time. Be honest about which you did: an Annie on singles is a different workout and should not be compared to one on doubles.
Why does Annie feel so much harder than the rep count suggests?
Because double-unders punish a raised heart rate. The rope needs a calm, precise rhythm at exactly the moment the sit-ups have taken that away from you, which is why the round of 30 trips people who cruised through 50.
Is there a time cap?
The cap on this page is a common working limit, not an official rule. Most benchmark workouts have no prescribed cap; a cap exists so a class ends on time and so you have a number to beat.
