10-Minute CrossFit Workouts to Build Lean Muscle — 13 Workouts All in 1 Place

This is a quick ab workout we did in my CrossFit class that totally toasted my core! This incorporates mostly bodyweight moves, so it's the perfect workout to do at home, on vacation, or anywhere you don't have access to gym equipment.

Equipment needed: sliders or paper plates if you're on carpet, or two hand towels if you're on a wood floor

Here's a CrossFit AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) workout designed by Jade Jenny, CrossFit coach and owner of Champlain Valley CrossFit, that you can do on your own.

Equipment needed: jump rope and a sturdy bench or box

Be warned: even though this kettlebell workout is only 10 minutes long, there's no rest, and your legs, butt, and arms will be smoked by the end.

Equipment needed: one light to medium kettlebell (five to 35 pounds)

This quick three-move workout involves cardio plus strength training, so it'll burn fat and build muscle.

Equipment needed: If you're doing single-unders, use a heavyweight jump rope. (If you don't have one, just use a regular jump rope. For double-unders, use a regular jump rope). You'll also need a pair of rings or a TRX, and a pair of dumbbells (10 to 25 pounds) or a barbell for the thrusters (35 to 55 pounds).

This CrossFit workout may not use a barbell, but that doesn't mean you won't completely fatigue your arms in just 10 minutes. It's fast-paced and intense, and it uses a variety of equipment to keep things fun. It's the perfect workout to do when you're short on time.

Equipment needed: soft medicine ball (eight to 20 pounds), rings (or a TRX or a sturdy table), a slam ball (20 to 40 pounds), and a set of medium-weight dumbbells

There is just one move for this workout: burpees! See how long it takes you to complete 100, then try to beat your time.
