Fight Gone Bad

Our official "Welcome to Crossfit" workout was fight gone bad. With some suggestions from veterans about beginners and this workout we decided to scale the workout considerably. The original workout is 3 rounds, 1 minute for each exercise:

  • Wall Ball
  • Sumo Deadlift
  • Box Jump
  • Push Press

You get a 1 minute break between rounds. We wanted to be gently introduced so that we weren't too mangled for our second workout. We took the advice of the veterans and went with 30 seconds for each exercise plus a 30 second rest between exercises. At first, I have to admit that I thought that might be a little too scaled but then after a couple of rounds I changed my mind.

Our numbers for each exercise per round are listed:

Kristie:

  • Sumo Dead Lift 17, 17, 17
  • Box Jump 13, 15, 17
  • Push Press 22, 19, 18
  • Wall Ball 13, 14, 15

Greg:

  • Sumo Dead Lift 10, 13, 12
  • Box Jump 14, 18, 11
  • Push Press 19, 19, 14
  • Wall Ball 12, 14, 14
