Register for Fight Gone Bad 2026!

Saturday 10.31.25 🎃 from 8:30-12pm

Since 2009, Fight Gone Bad has been one of CrossFit South Brooklyn’s most beloved community traditions—part grueling workout, part costume party, and all heart. Each year around Halloween, teams come together to sweat, get weird, and raise money for local causes that make Brooklyn stronger. Over the years, we’ve raised more than $520,000 for charity, and in 2026 we’re once again answering the call to serve our community by supporting Brooklyn Community Housing & Services.

Register here for $20 (Mandatory)

100% of your purchase goes to BCH&S

Register a team (Optional)

Like last year, teams of up to 7 people may form a team together. Just put everyone’s name on your team into the spreadsheet above. Teams with less than 7 people may have additional people added to your team. Everyone who registers will be placed on a team regardless so no stress!

Workout of the Day

METCON

Every 2:00 x 10 Rounds
6 Strict CTB Chin-Ups
9 Burpee Box Jump Overs 24″/20″

Notes
The Chin-Ups and Burpee Box Jump Overs should be completed in a minute or less. In order to accomplish this the chin-ups need to be completed unbroken or in maximum 2 quick sets. You may also need to treat the Burpee Box Jump Overs as an AMRAP to the 1:00 mark. The goal is to try and be consistent each round.

Chin-Ups
6/3 Chin-Ups
6 Kipping pull-ups
6 Banded Chin-Ups
6 Self Assisted or Ring Rows

ASSISTANCE

3 Progressive sets of:
8-12 DB Pull Overs

Burpee Box Jump Overs

Today’s BBJOs need to be completed very quickly in order to finish within the minute. Coach David was able to perform every round in today’s workout in :51 by using the fastest version shown in the video below.

Workout of the Day

STRENGTH

Bench Press
3-3-3-3-3

Notes
In roughly 5-8 total sets work up to a heavy triple on the bench press. Below is an example of what today could look like.

45×10
95×5
115×3
135×3
155×3
165×3
175×3

METCON

Every 2:00 x 5 Sets
10 Strict Toes to Bars
10 Weighted Reverse Lunges

Notes
Each interval should take you roughly 1:00 to complete. This workout will tax your grip stength, mid line and legs. There isn’t a huge cardio respiratory element to today’s metcon, but it should still feel like WORK.

Lunges
Hold two dumbbells suitcase style, go heavy. If 50s/35s arent very challenging for 10 reps… go heavier.

Toes to Bars
An unbroken set of T2B will take :30 or less. Try to spend no more than :45 on the bar each round. Scale reps, range of motion or the movement to meet your abilities.

10/7 Strict
10 Kipping
10 Hanging Leg Raises
10+ V-ups

Looking for Cat or Knee sleeves?

Here’s some recent entries from the CFSBK Community Board.

In Search of Cat foster or adopter

CFSBKer: Caitlyn

Description
There are a ton of abandoned and stray friendly cats in my neighborhood, my friends have started a nonprofit and we desperately need fosters to be able to help take in more cats in need. I have one at my house right now that is a perfect angel, and a couple others who are more temperamental but would really open up in their own home if given the chance. Please reach out if you would be willing to give it a try and foster a cat!

5mm Rehband knee sleeves (Medium) – great condition, free!

CFSBKer: Alex Cook

Description
I’ve used these knee sleeves about a dozen times, but I’ve found they’re a little too big for me and that I also wanted the thicker version (7 mm), so I decided to get a new pair. I’m well past the window of returning these, but they’re in excellent condition (and also perfectly clean since I hand wash them with castile soap), so if you’d like them, let me know! And for context, here’s the fit guide on Rogue’s website: https://www.roguefitness.com/rehband-rx-knee-sleeve-5mm-black
