On Mondays I’m going to start giving a syllabus for the week. This way athletes can be prepared for longer bouts, and teams can plan their schedules to work together. Here’s the plan:
Monday: No extra work, no Team WOD.
Tuesday: Group 1 & Group 2 extra work, 6 member Team WOD.
Wednesday: Group 1 extra work, no team WOD.
Thursday: Off.
Friday: Group 2 extra work, 4 member Team WOD.
Saturday: Group 1 extra work, no team WOD.
Sunday: Off.
Notice that I’ve written the number of team members necessary for the team WODs. This does not mean there won’t be work for the other team members. They will simply do the individual version of the day’s WOD.
Just in case you were wondering what the fastest time on Saturday’s WOD was…
6:18, by Kenneth Leverich. Welcome, Kenneth—being 3rd in the world apparently means you’re pretty good. Six minutes was a little faster than I thought. I hope you don’t get blamed for me having to make everything harder.
We have a rule here at “The Way.” Any time someone combines a PR with a “fuck yeah” we have to post the video. Fact. Trust me: I didn’t want to. I do not approve of adolescent boys lifting heavy weights, as it stunts growth and will give them blonde pubic hair. Also, I do not approve of men wearing women’s bathing suits to lift weights. This is a dangerous practice and could cause testicular torsion if, of course, the lifter has reached puberty (which clearly is not an issue in this video, but could become a problem when he finishes “developing”). Not to mention, at “The Way” we always recommend a well-fitting athletic short, like these or these.
Despite my personal misgivings, a rule is a rule. Here is Noah Ohlsen’s PR 91kg Snatch:
WOD 120402:
BB Gymnastics
1) 5X1 Snatch @ 80-90% – rest 90 sec.
Notes: Begin at 80% and increase to 90% throughout sets if technique is perfect. DO NOT go past 90% and do not add to 80% if technique is not perfect.
2a) 4X2 Snatch Pulls – heavier than last week, rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO
2b) 4X2 Tempo High-Bar Back Squat @ 80% – rest 60 sec.
Notes: Quick descent, 5 counts (seconds) in the rock bottom, bounce and quick back up.
Strength
1a) 7X3 Weighted STRICT Pullups @ 70%
1b) 7X3 Bench Press @ 70%
Notes: Rest intervals should be no more than the length of time it takes to transition movements. You may time this total effort, but DO NOT go so fast that there is a possibility of missing reps, or having to break sets. There should be no more than 45 sec. rest between sets.
Skill
10 minutes practice on Muscle-Ups to Ring HSPU.
Notes: If you are proficient at these, practice stringing them together. If you are not, try to get some clean singles. Do not do more than 15 total reps.
Midline
4 minute AMRAP of:
L-Sit Hold (on paralettes)
For total seconds.
I literally almost don’t even know how to approach this..
Getting a little personal, but we’re all family here, so I must say that Rudy has made one mistake. The fact is, the blonde pubic hair counteracts the testicular torsion by forming a protective cocoon around the “family jewels” and providing protection from the rhino-like barbell that Mr. Courage is all too familiar with.
Anyhow, the “fuck yeah” coming from such a fresh young mouth seems rudimentary in manner. My apologies on that front. I just became overwhelmed in a fit of passion after executing the patience in the hole I was taught at the Outlaw camp that concurrently helped me hit the illustrious 200 lb snatch!
Ps. Kenny and I are now both sponsored teammates by Strength Wraps, so as proud of him as I am for smashing the WOD (and my time) I’m also coming for him on this one! We hit it today (after my oly meet) and upped all the weights AND I wore a weighted vest, so you best believe when I do it the way it was programmed, this adolescent boy’s goin’ sub 6!
Nice onesie.
^^^^ wins the interwebz. Lol
Well, there goes the neighborhood… Welcome aboard, Kenny.
Noah — if you’re gonna let out a “fuck yeah” at a competition, please try to make it more than a whisper. On the other hand, I’m thinking you’re probably a bit too young to be using that language at all, not to mention talking about “fresh young mouths,” “fits of passion,” and having “patience in the hole.” Just sayin.
Seriously, nice work, buddy.
The bear cub is obviously wise beyond his years in the ways of the snatch. That said, Noah will you wear that outfit to WOD in 2 weeks when I come visit Miami?!
Is it acceptable to post a video here for form critiquing?
yes
1) 65kg, 70kg, 70kg (F), 65kg (F), 65kg – Snatches were all over the show tonight. Gutted
2a) 85kg all across – Felt good
2b) 150kg all across. Very difficult
3a) Bodyweight (I weigh 93kg) – All easy, should’ve added 5/10kg
3b) 90kg – Good weight here. 1RM is 115kg, so slightly above percentages. Allowed 45 seconds between reps to get some good strength work in.
Cut it short there as I only had 40 minutes tonight.
Snatch – 76, 80, 82.5, 85kg x 2
Snatch pulls – 110kg
Tempo HBBS – 140kg
Pull ups – 24kg KB
Bench press – 87.5kg
Skill – worked the transition for the first time ever and then got a few single reps out for a new PB movement

1) 175, 185, 185, 195, 195
2a) 275×4
2b) 255×4
Snatch is getting better all the time. Pulls were fine, tempo squats difficult again, but got them.
1a) 50#
1b) 190#
PullUps were supposed to be at 70, but I’ve put on 10lbs as of late and can really feel it there. No problem on bench.
Skill work: practiced some transitions but no press outs on the HSPU. Then did some pike ring hspu.
L-Sit total of 75 seconds in 4 minutes.
Hi guys, i’m new here, just found this programming and noticed that I stumbled upon gold, gonna try to strictly stick to this for 1 year and see how it goes.
5×1@ 80% Snatch based on 135lbs. Failed 2 attempts (caught the weight too forward)
4×2 snatch pulls 165lbs (felt a little awkward, never really did these)
4×2 back squat @ 185lbs (felt good but tough)
7×3 strict weighted pullups with 35# kb (This felt just right, got tough at the end)
7×3 bench based on 170lbs (this was too light, need to redo 3RM soon)
Lsit’s SUCK, best one was 25sec
FORGOT TO DO MUSCLE UPS… Going back to the gym later lol. Can’t do Ring HSPU so will practice the muscle ups.
BB Gymnastics
1) 130, 130, 140, 140, 145#
2a) 190# across sets
2b) 215#

[IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/mwea8g.jpg[/IMG]
A: 105 x 3, 115 x 3 still muscle snatch for the most part but dropped into squat and held there for a count of 3, snatch balance like…
B1: 155, need to go heavier, can’t find my straps since my trip.
B2: 205, real tough getting out of the bottom but managed every set.
C1: 10#, good weight here, will add 5 next time
C2: 185#
Did 10 min of Muscle-up work, almost there, this month for sure.
L-Sit – no time
Snatch 205, 205, 185, 185, 185, first two singles were dodgy so went lighter to nail down technique
2a 295 snatch pull
2b 275 tempo hbbs
1a 275 bench
1b 20# weight vest strict pull ups
10 min did 5 ring hspu singles, threw a mu in the middle somewhere for good measure

2/3/3
1) Worked from 185 – 195… still feel beat up.
2a) Worked from 245 – 275

Strength
2a) Worked from 53# – 80#
2b) 225 – 245
Skill
Worked transitions from the ring dip into RHSPU, and ended up getting a bunch of singles (first time attempting these). My feet get wrapped up too tight on the ropes, though… need to go with Spealler’s method, but I feel like I’m gonna fall through.
Midline
hellooooooo goat! Longest hold was 24 seconds, and the rest were crap.
M/F/S – 2/4/5
Snatch: all at 155, 80%

WPU: 2 rounds at 90lbs, 5 at 70lbs
Bench: all at 225lbs
MU-Ring HSPU, did about ten singles, too low in the roof to string them together since I didnt realise that a fwd roll in the rings probably would be the best way to get to another kip?
Finished off with an easy set off 5 low ring hspu.
L-sit: 1min 6sec, horribly bad performance.

Muscle Up to RHSPU: I can transition to them well but didn’t have a very high set of rings. My feet would hit the top bar every time, so the RHSPU felt a little off.
4 min L-sit: About 1.5min Accum.
M/F/S – 2/2/1

I had to go to a worlds gym today, fuck that place is really unmotiavating!
No snatching, or pulls.
Did tempo hbbs 315 for 4 sets. Scared the gym mayor next to me, when I looked at him and said, “this ain’t shit, you should see the guys I train with”… I.e. all you beasts.
Then every bench in the effing place was taken so did 10 min amrap of 7 strict pull ups 7 shoulder press 95#. 10 rounds +7 presses
Obviously no rings.
Amrap l-sit 99 secs. Suck at these.
Snatch @ 100, 100, 100, 110, 110 (2nd week with snatch now; still not good at them, but do feel them getting a bit better each day)

In 8th grade we were forced to wear those nut-hugging shorts similar to what Stockton is wearing in that picture; it was the early 1990’s that’s just how we rolled back then. Except we (8th grade BOYS) were given the old Varsity girls hand-me-downs with an extra bit winged fabric sewn into the crotch…no punchline…just scarred…for life..

2a) 100, 110, 110, 110 My buddy took some video, I’m pulling it high enough that if I was fast enough I could get under it and snatch this. Hope a PR is coming soon for Sn.
2b) 295lb OH YEAH!
Then did 10 minutes of skill work on the MU/RHSPU. Managed to string some together. Pretty good at these cause I used to spend lots of time on the rings.

BB gymnastics
Snatch
73, 75, 78, 81, 85 lbs.
All of these felt really good. Definitely think I could go heavier. My biggest hurdle that I’ve recently overcome is getting below the bar (vs. just doing power snatches all the time).
Snatch pulls
137 lbs. – they felt better as the rounds went on
Tempo HBBS
137 lbs. – Not super easy, but felt strong.
Strength
1a) Body weight (165lbs.) – failed the very last rep. Tried after a short break, but was spent.
1b) 115 lbs.
Skill
I can’t do either, so I worked on muscle up progression and regular HSPU with two ab mats.
Midline
1:09 total time – longest hold was 10 seconds. Biggest issue was cramping up in left quad.

Midline- 1:48 total time.
BBG:
1) Snatch – 170,175,180,185,190. All reps were solid. Oly is feeling really smooth lately.
2a) Snatch Pulls – 225×2,240×2
2b) Tempo HBBS – 275
Strength
1a) Weighted STRICT Pullups – 53×3,58,63,68,75
1b) Bench Press – 185, felt super light.
Skill – completed sets of 3,2,2, and five singles. 12 total reps. I actually got my shoelace caught on a chain at the top of the rings and I thought we were gonna have to get out the step ladder to get me down. I was stuck in a handstand for a few nervous seconds.
Midline – 80 seconds. Did a max hold EMOM and finished with a couple small sets at the end. 25,15,16,12,7,5.
1) all at 155. still need soooo much work on this movement, feel like everything sucks balls on this.
2a) 245
2b) 290 so damn heavy failed second reps on both the last sets.
Strength
1a) 40lbs
1b) 225, went #25 over 70% and it still felt easy, shouldve done 235 or so
shoulder and elbow were pissed from havin shit for on snatches so nixed the MU practice and forgot all about the midline shiz
Weird day with a lot of unexpected limitations (noted). Had to use the man bar at school… with no chalk because they wouldn’t dare lift anything heavy enough to break a sweat.
1) 115-125, 135(f)… I blame this on grip, really.
2a) 175
3b) 195
Strength
1a) 25# wanted to use 40-50# but no db or weight vest available. Next time.
1b) 115
Skill: Did 1 Ring HSPU every 30s for a total of 15 reps.
Then learned that damn MU HSPU. Got it down. Pretty stoked about that.
Midline: 2ish? That sucked.
Snatch-175×2, 185×2, 195×1
Snatch pulls-225, 235, 245×2
Tempo HBBS-290
Messed up percentages on bench and pullups so not even worth posting but 25# & 165#
MU to RHSPU- did 3-2-3-3-1-1 (ran out of time so rushed at the end and didn’t get 10 min in
L-sits: 90 secs
BBG
1) 110, 110, 115, 120, 125
2a) 165 for all

Strength
1a) 10, 10, 20, 25, 25, 25, 35
1b) 145
Got a few ring hspu. Transitioned from the top of a dip. Our rings dont go high enough to get a MU with full ROM plus ring HSPU so practiced from a sit position but by the time i got to those I had no press left
80 seconds in the L-sit. :10 on :20 off
1) Snatch 205, 210, 215, 220, 225 – Snatches sucked balls today. Missed 225 a couple times which I NEVER do. Fuck.
2a) Snatch Pulls 315 – Nice and high. Good pop today- not sure why full snatches were such a disaster.
2b) HBBS Tempo Squats 380 – Holy fuck. Seeing stars after each set.
Strength
1a) 70lb KB – Missed the very last rep of the workout.
1b) 245 – Easy.
Muscle-ups to Ring HSPU
– 15 done in 7:55. I was hoping for under 6, but oh well. I’d be happy if these came up in competition.
L-Sit – 1:50
Kenneth Leverich
BB Gymnastics:
1) Snatch 5 x 1 @ 230lbs.
2a) 2 x 240lbs, 2 x 240lbs, 2 x 250lbs, 2 x 250lbs. I have never done these before. I will definitely go much heavier next time.
2b) 4 x 2 @ 300lbs. Felt a little tension in my right calf. Legs need some serious SMR on a daily basis.
Strength:
1a) Weighted pull-ups 7 x 3 @ 80lbs
1b) Bench press 7 x 3 @ 225lbs. Bench was interesting considering that’s the first time that I’ve done bench press in over a year. Thanks for exposing a potential weakness.
Skill:
Completed 10 UB M/U to RHSPU. Took it easy. My elbows are really sore still from Saturday and the recent increase in Oly volume. Video below. Some reps may be so-so. Please let me know what you think.
Midline:
Held 2:29.14 of 4:00.00 or 149 of 240 seconds and this was the most challenging part of the night for me.
Looking forward to tomorrow!
Jesus Kenny, I don’t think I’ve ever seen muscle-up to ring hspu look so easy. Like Hoggan said, there goes the neighborhood (whatever that means…)
But how far can he throw a softball?
Nice. I’ve gotta get better at catching the roll right into the press. I catch pretty deep, set and press….these look faster and less effort.
BB Gymnastics
1) 5X1 Snatch @ 80% – 68kg these felt smooth probably should have gone to 90%
2a) 4X2 Snatch Pulls – @ 100kg
2b) 4X2 Tempo High-Bar Back Squat @ 80% = 112.5kg
Strength
1a) 7X3 Weighted STRICT Pullups @ 70% = + 15kg
1b) 7X3 Bench Press @ 70% = 80kg
Missed the rest of the session as I had work to get to

First day on the Way. First let me say thanks for the programming and the antics. I don’t think I’ve laughed so much at any blog. I was doing CFFB when I came across this program. I immediately realized how much I missed the oly lifts paired with the cf style metcons and gymnastics. So here I find myself at the present date.
SN 160,160,165,165,170
*worked on technique, knees out, pulling through heels and keeping feet close
4 rds
SN Pulls 225#
Tempo HBBS 275#
* With speed on the pulls, HBBS were tough but I got every rep
7 rds
3x wgt pull up 95,90,70–>
3x Bench 215#
*started to slow on rd2 of the pull ups so I thought I’d better drop to get all reps minimal rest between sets
Then 10:00 MU to Ring HSPU 4rds of 1 MU + 3 Ring HSPU
Had to do MU from seated position, I hook the straps to a pullup bar, there is no where to attach it to the ceiling, so…
L-sit about 1:30 in the L-sit accumlated
Stretch
2×10 wall extension
roll around on tennis ball
Prasara Yoga- Crow transitions (per Blair Morrison)
Felt good today, looking forward to the program and many thanks.
