Tips and Strategy :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 Balls in the first minute, they can count their first couple Sumo Deadlift High-Pulls as 21, 22, 23…and so on.
Intended Stimulus : “Fight Gone Bad” is meant to be light and fast. You should keep the intensity high so you feel breathless throughout the WOD.
Scaling: 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.
