Watch the 2011 CrossFit Games on ESPN2 for the first time ever! The 12-part series of 30min episodes will launch at 8 p.m. EDT / 5 p.m. PDT on Wednesday, September 14. Four shows back to back for three Wednesdays in a row.

Updated F.G.B. 6 Heat Sign-ups:

NOTE: We will run 2 heats per 45-minute sesssion, and only 10 athletes per heat, so 20 athletes total for each session.  Make sure you come early and warm-up on  your own, because there won't be much time before your heat goes.  This also means you need to know the 5 movements prior to doing F.G.B.  The workout is given below:

“Fight Gone Bad!”
3 rounds of:
Wall-ball, 20/14 pound ball, 10 ft target (Reps)
Sumo deadlift high-pull, 75/55 pounds (Reps)
Box Jump, 20" box (Reps)
Push-press, 75/55 pounds (Reps)
Row (Calories)
In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute.The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. 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.
