Today’s WOD

“Fight Gone Bad”

In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. We used this in the 3 round versions. The stations are:

Wall-ball: 20/ 14 pound ball, 10 ft target. (Reps)
Sumo deadlift high-pull: 75/55 pounds (Reps)
Box Jump: 20/16″ box (Reps)
Push-press: 75/55 pounds (Reps)
Row: calories (Calories)

The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On the call of “rotate,”move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.

Trainer’s Tips: Everyone’s favourite, “Fight Gone Bad”! Chances are you have done this one before, and if you want a PB, you will need some strategy. Know how many reps of each movement you will need and as hard as it may be, try to maintain your effort for each round. It is normal to lose a few reps during round 2, but it is also not uncommon to see people gain reps in round 3. Know which movements you will accumulate the most reps with and use the full 60 seconds. For weaker movements with lower reps, tranistion to your next movement at 50 seconds and get ready for the next movement. Good luck!

    Haha I have faith in me ladies. Ok ok, I will go balls out the first round then balls in the 2nd and 3rd. Followed by 30 minutes of bicep curls since Pauly loves when I do my dumbbell curls.
