On September 17th, 2011, CrossFitters from around the world will come together to endure 17 minutes of one of our most grueling workouts in honor of those men and women who have given a lifetime of service and sacrifice.

For 17 minutes we will grind, sweat, and Fight! At every moment we want to slow down, with every thought that tells us to put down the barbell, we will REMEMBER those who sacrificed their lives, limbs, or loved ones in service to our nation. Please turn to your community of family and friends, asking them to join us by participating, donating, and or fundraising in Fight Gone Bad 6.

All funds raised will benefit 3 outstanding organizations, The Special Operations Warrior Foundation, The CrossFit Foundation, and Camp Patriot.

In “Fight Gone Bad” the athlete completes as many repetitions as possible in one minute for each of the 5 movements. After the 5 minutes of work, the athlete gets a 1 minute rest and then completes two more rounds of the Fight, for a total of 3 rounds. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of ‘rotate,’ the athletes must move to the next station immediately.
