“Murph”
For time:
1 mile Run
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Squats
1 mile Run

In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005. This workout was one of Mike’s favorites, and he’d named it “Body Armor.” From here on it will be referred to as “Murph” in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you’ve got a twenty-pound vest or body armor, wear it.

Here are a few scaling ideas:

3/6/9 for 33 Rounds + 1 Round of 1/2/3

This is a great place to start whether you’re doing Murph for the first time, with or without a vest.

5/10/15 for 20 Rounds

If you’re strong at pull-ups and know that the 5 is no problem, this is a great option if you believe you can maintain unbroken push-ups through the first 10-13 rounds. See below for more detail on what to do with this rep scheme if you do break down on the push-ups.

10/20/30 for 10 Rounds

If you’re a ninja at push-ups, go after this rep scheme. This rep scheme is also popular with athletes who get annoyed with counting all of those rounds!

20/40/60 for 5 Rounds

Done at the 2016 CrossFit Games. All athletes were required to do the same rep scheme for competition purposes.

Partner

If you are feeling like your fitness may not be able to handle a full workload, find a friend and split the reps.

Murph is a LOT of volume in regards to pull-ups and push-ups. While we highly encourage everyone to partake in this workout in some fashion to honor a great hero, we want to make sure that everyone is able to do so in a safe manner. Please do not hesitate to adapt the workout to fit your fitness level and capability. Please err on the side of caution if you’re unsure; we want to see each of you healthy and happy after this Memorial Day. Here are a few additional options:

Option 1:
