Mon. Sept. 27th, 2010

We had a great turnout for the "Fight Gone Bad" on Saturday. Thanks to Kitsap CrossFit up in Poulsbo for hosting the event and for the invite. We made some new friends, ate some awesome food, and kicked some ass with the W.O.D. We hope to get together in the near future for some weekend workouts. More to follow.... I will post some pictures of the event as well.

This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. On call of "rotate", the athletes must move to next station immediately for best score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point. The "Fight Gone Bad" was originally designed for MMA fighter BJ Penn to match the demands of a UFC fight.
