WOD: “FIGHT Gone Wrong”
(1 round = 6 minutes)
4 Rounds For Total Reps in 23 minutes
1 minute Wall Ball Shots (10/7)
1 minute Sumo Deadlift High-Pulls (BB 30/25kg) / KB SWINGS 24/16kg
100m MB Run
1 minute Push Press (BB 30/25kg) (DB 15/10kg)
1 minute Row (calories)/ 200m Run
1 minute Rest
Perform 1 minute of work at each of the 5 stations. Move immediately to the next station after 1 minute. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. One-minute break is allowed before repeating each round. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.
Score is the total cumulative number of repetitions completed of all movements in all 3 rounds.
– Beginner: 150-250 reps
– Intermediate: 250-350 reps
– Advanced: 350-450 reps
– Elite: 500+ reps
While there is often a lot of strategy and gaming in workouts like this, today we are looking to simply find a balance of constantly moving while not hitting a wall of muscular fatigue. It will be slightly different for each athlete, but the goal is to move as much as possible within each 5-minute round and save rest (to the extent possible) for the designated rest periods.
Rather than trying to keep track of reps at each station, athletes can keep a running count. For example, if athletes get 20 Wall Ball Shots in the first minute, they can count their first couple Sumo Deadlift High-Pulls as 21, 22, 23…and so on.
is meant to be light and fast. You should keep the intensity high so you feel breathless throughout the WOD. If you’re asking yourself what your name is after time is called, you did it right.
Most athletes should be able to stick with the interval pattern. Beginners should reduce the loading and height of the box. Intermediate athletes can handle the prescribed loading in this workout.
