A commitment to excellence.

Don Hasselbeck brought his 1984 Los Angeles RAIDERS Super Bowl ring to the North Central Regional, so I could get a picture with it. He actually made sure I put it on to take the picture. I was shaking. This was the coolest moment of a very cool day. Thanks, Don.

  2. I’m 3 wods in to The Outlaw Way, so please excuse my lack of vocab. What is BB Gymnastics?

    • Read the doctrine – you’ll find that and tons more good shit.

      (It’s olympic weightlifting basically….in various forms)

    • Posted this on yesterdays, but really felt the need to post it again after seeing this.

      For all of you noobs to the site, and/or people who just like to ask stupid fucking questions.
      Rudy knows his fucking shit, don’t question his methods just STFU and do it. If you have to follow a day behind, then fucking follow a day behind and STFU. If you can’t follow the programming to a “T” then follow it the best that you can and STFU. If you don’t know what something means then fucking google that shit. You are all adults, well most of you, Rudy does all of this programming for free, and he trains a lot of ELITE exercisers, he doesn’t have time to hold your fucking hand and explain everything to you, unless you want to pay him $200 a month, and still if you asked me some of the questions that are asked on here I would tell you to keep your money.

      Really, what is BB Gymnastics?!?!?!?!
      I REALLY hope that you know what BB means, if not, 1,000,000 cockpunches for time for you. If you didn’t understand the meaning of the combination of BB and Gymnastics…then think about it. What are the movements you are doing with the BB and then how might that relate to gymnastics movements…AH HA, AHHH HAAAA…

      Fucking think people, do you not have to think for yourself on a day to day basis, or do you always have someone there walking around with you holding your hand.

      • I’m new to this Outlaw Way and I can read but what does “STFU” mean? Is it like “Snatch the fucking weight”? Can’t be cuz that would be “STFW” hmmm I wonder… can anyone help?

        M/28/225

        1,000,000,000 CPs for time

        4:20 Rx

        Pr’d by a minute!

      • LGA, If I come to boro will you hold my hand?? <—lulz and I know what STFU means,,,, it's gotta be "Steal The F'n Underwear" <— right, right???!! I'm gonna do an extra wod today too, work on some squa-sna-chucks (or however the hell Courage spelled it) and some UB ME BB Cock Punchese EMOM followed by (another exercise Courage was working on that was based off of horse maneur shoveling, need a video to figure it out tho) but whatever it is, an AMRAP of that, and mayb if I get to 16 WODs a day I can beat Rich next year!!!! hell yea!! On a serious note LGA, Hughey… nice job at regionals, watched a few of the team WODs.

      • chill bruh I think he got it after the first 2 sentences. Although I agree people do a little research if you don’t know.

  4. Back squats – we don’t usually get a rack for any BB movements in a conditioning piece. Is this the same?

    • Im just taking a guess, but I think taking it from the rack on this one is acceptable. A lot of people on here dont have a 275# c+j or for the ladies a 185# c+j.

  5. Bb gymnastics
    1) 135# with an asterisk. I’m in a tiny foreign gym with no bumpers and very congested free weight area populated by people who will walk right into a lifter doing squats, much less a ballistic movement. So, I work my snatches conservatively for now. No biggie, I can drill form/technique.

    2a and 2b) 155# ea

    Conditioning

    26:37 using 225# and 45# respectively

    Additional strength work:
    Since I am built like a spider, I want to increase my force generation over the very long length of my pulls. So….

    1) Zercher Squats 5×3@225 moving very fast/aggressively through each rep

    2) Pendlay rows 5×3@165 focus on ripping bar off floor and hitting my solar plexus before releasing weight.

    • In looking at the conditioning portion, I figured Rudy planned this for a 17:00-22:00 minute window. Looking at everyone’s times, I think I assessed correctly. Looks like I need to tighten up my scaling to hit the time domains.

  6. BBG
    1) Snatch. PB of 100kg, today hit a 90 easily and had 2 tilts at 105kg but missed them both
    2a) Behind the neck Snatch Grip Push Press – 4 x 3 @ 95kg
    2b) Snatch Pulls – 3 x 3 @ 115kg, 1 x 3 @ 120kg

    WOD rx’d
    20:01
    Leg are beat up from f squats and Karen yesterday

    • My box dosent have 60# DB, heaviest set is 35# DB. Anyone know of any good sub for the push jerks since I don’t have the RXd weight? ….I was thinking about doubling the reps and using the 35#….

      • See LGA’s post above for desired answer. I personally was going to use hspu’s.

  8. I’m going to follow the programming just because of the love for the Raiders…..

    No, thats a lie. Its clearly great programming.

  9. Snatch:

    1RM Snatch – rough day, warmed up to 165 then started the 12 min with 175 pulled under it twice but just couldn’t finish. Thought it was a mental thing so went to 180 (5# under PR), pulled under and caught it 5 times but just couldn’t stand up.

    Kicked my ass yet again today 24:38, my Squats were limited to 2-3 reps at a time.

  20. Did Powersnatching for 20 minutes. On the minute stuff. Up to 205. Still trying to avoid knee flexion when I can.
    +
    Conditioning:
    19:28 with 135# BB PushPress. Transitions were laxed.

    Runs were real slow. BS unbroken. Need more long stuff… and need to start doing running drills. Damn calf still tightens up easily.

    Some awesome times and weights on here today! Very impressive.

    Conditioning:

    BS 3/3/3-3/2/2-3/2
    Runs slow

  22. BB Gymnastics

    1) Snatch
    Went up to 165. Posting it not because it’s a PR in weight, but because it’s a PR in time spent being patient in the hole under something heavy. (yeah, yeah… that’s what she said)
    2) Snatch grip PP
    165
    3) Snatch pulls 205

    Conditioning other

    MFS: 1/2/3

  24. 1) 95, 100f, 102.5ff, 105fffff
    Yup… was snatching for about 30 minutes. Really wanted 105 and I got dang close so many times.
    2a) 90, 95, 100, 105
    2b) 120, 120, 120, 125 from a 2″ deficit standing on a plate.

    Conditioning: 17:54
    800m rows and 50lb Push Presses with 2 extra reps each round.

  25. BBG: SN 170#, not feeling great today, however bar height was the best I’ve been able to produce in a while, just not sticking the catch
    SN grip PP: up to 185#, shoulders a bit tired wanted to only hit them at around 80%
    SN pulls: 175#, did halting deadlift to just above knee then would finish pull, trying to adress where I feel I miss the lift the most (going from the point just off the ground to above the knee and taking the bar from there to the hips). Anybody recommend any drills for this, in addition to halting deadlifts?
    Conditioning
    18:47, runs slow, not the best runner, hams still tight from other day and felt them on the very first 400m, all squats and PJ unbroken, weights were fairly easy to work with.

  27. A) 12 min to find 1 rep max snatch
    220/ 230 f….not a pr but pulls are feeling good and can tell a big pr is coming soon.
    B1) 185/205/215/225 definately go heavier next time.
    B2) 230 all sets

    conditioning – skipped no time….might try it tonight on my lunch break

  28. RESULTS:
    Sleep=5.2 hours. Awoke very groggy
    Work=4 hr OT in hold moving dunnage, chain and steel scraps.
    Wx=Rolling 5 degrees. Fair breeze, mod temp

    BBG
    1) 95×3-135-165-185(f)-185(f) weak pull-185(f) locked overhead then broke at waist and dropped. Bullshit rolling 
    2a)135(too light)-165(more)-175(f)-170-170
    2b)185(nipple high)-185(nipple high, jumping away from bar during pull)-205(jumping back on last rep)-205(big improvement)

    Conditioning:
    1) 17:40. Run 80m shuttles, shuffle to stop at bulkhead but pace slower than ashore. Slick decks with moisture and hydraulic fluid.
    BS @225. 5 degree rolls does not allow for more without risk of injury. Still dragging on rolls. PP @50/45 KB/DB all I had. 

  29. a.) drilling the squat snatch technique (20m)
    5×75#, 5×95#, 5×115#, 5×135#, 5×145#, 1×165# with 4 misses

    b1.) 115# all sets

  30. Holy hell my legs are trashed.

    BBG
    1)Slowly worked my way up, and got 229, missed 239. Just slow and sore.
    2a) 195, 217, 227×2
    2b) 265×4

    Conditioning
    18:45 – Went super low bar on the back squats, all sets UB.

  32. So I’m having some trouble with the flexibility for full snatches and OH squats. Just wondering if anybody has some good mobility work suggestions to open up the hip flexors in the bottom of the snatch.

  33. Snatch: After a week at the beach I didn’t quite have enough to PR. 118kg @ 64.5kg BW: Here’s the video:

    Conditioning: 17:46 RX

  34. 1) 205 tied PR failed at 215 a lot. I just can’t keep it locked out in the hole.
    2a) 205 215f 215 225f
    Both fails on 3rd rep
    2b) 225 235 245 245
    Conditioning done around 4 hours later
    23:30
    Used 53lb KBs
    Runs slow as shit. Got mad calf cramp on last 800 and walked a lot.
    Squats 5-4 4-3 5
    PJ unbroken
    3/7/5

  36. So I googled before I posted to as not get raged on, but when I went from taking the bar overhead to putting it back on my shoulders, excruciating pain. What does this mean? Am I going to die? Are weightlifters allowed in heaven?

    Srsly though, wtf is wrong with my shoulders?

  37. Conditioning: 15:19

    Runs, accidently did a 900m on the first run.
    Squats UB
    DB PJ, 9-5-4 , 7-4-3, 10 UB used 65# DB’s, the gym doesnt have 60’s

    Bringing the squat rack outside made the transitions much quicker.

  38. Hey, I am new to following is the programming. Been looking at past posts and noticed sometimes there are second conditioning workouts that are posted as either group 3, 4, or 5. I am trying to find out how I should choose which group to follow, or if there is a set way to choose.

    • No need to do the extra stuff unless you’re competing in regionals. If your games season is over just do the regularly prescribed work.

  39. @GMadg i’ll help ya before you get your head ripped off. the extra work is for regional competitors. if your not going to regionals, then don’t worry about it.

  42. 1) 75kg (Equals PR). I missed 77.5kg 3 times very closely. I’m sure this (and more!) will be coming soon..
    2a) 95kg x 4 x 3 – Felt good and strong. My left elbow and shoulder wasn’t enjoying the movement that much however.
    2b) 95kg x 4 x 3 – Getting lots of good height and power on the bar.

    Conditioning – Subbed 60kg BB push press for DB Push Jerks

    19:02.

    All runs slow – 3:50 for first run. 4:30ish for the other two. Runs had 3 turn arounds in them.
    Back Squats – All unbroken. In my squishy running shoes which through me out a little bit, but this was a light enough weight not to bother me.
    Push Press – 6/6/6, 8/6, 10

    Good workout. Slow and steady with small breaks between the push presses. I wish I could run faster while fatigued!

  44. Snatch didn’t feel that great. hit 173, missed 184 twice.
    176 for ppress
    208 for Snatch Pull

    18:12 for the WOD.

  45. Attended Caleb and Kelly Williams Peak Peerformance Weightlifting/CrossFit Gwinnett weightlifting seminar and learned more about the list in 8 hours than in the last yer. The hands on approach and depth of knowledge from these two lifters, and the small (12 people) format was fantastic. I would recommend it to anyone, ESP at $175!
    As part of the seminar I snatched up to 75kg, off my pr by 5kg, but ….
    Cj 105, then cleaned 110 twice, missed both jerks, tried cleaning 115kg and after a full 8-9 hours work I just got pinned, slow elbows, on a fresh day it’s going up

  46. 1) 185# – 10# PR and pretty remarkable considering last October 135# was the most my left shoulder could handle, and I didn’t even attempt anything over that until I started following this site in January. Now I hit a new PR every time we test.

    2a) up to 170# – never been comfortable with behind the neck work (dropping the wt down on my back)
    2b) 215# all sets.

    No time for conditioning.

  47. 1) got 75 kg easy, failed 79 kg twice but it was so close 🙁
    2a) Used 65 kg all the way.
    2b) 85 kg

    Conditioning: 21.57 – Used 115 kg instead of 125 kg – Great workout

  48. 205 snatch fuck yeah. tried 210 and felt a shit ton heavier basically i just did snatch pulls with it. maybe it’s in my head.
    2a) heaviest 210
    2b) 225 for all

    conditioning) 15:53
    used 245# since 275 was going to make my spine snap like a fucking yoga instructor. and didn’t have dumbbells so did hspus instead. i probably could have done this faster but the squats were scaring the shit out of me so i never really pushed it til the last round.

  49. 1) 225 missed everything else. Wasnt sticking it at the top once again.
    Didnt have time for next two.

    conditioning:

    19:34..brutal

  50. 1. Snatch- 135 easy; failed 145 on 2 attempts. Locked out in the bottom both times held for a second and the weight fell forward. Don’t think i was getting under the bar enough.

    2a) 165 all
    2B) 205 all

    Conditioning: used 185 for back squats and 35lb DB’s for PJ both unbroken
    Time: 16:26
    Hit it at about 85-87%, runs were slow but squats and jerks felt good, technique was good.

  51. BBG:
    1) 110# , 5#pr. Slowly making progress here!!

    Team wods with box today. Helen and partner Nutts.

    • Cond. 33:12(rx from rack) I’m fine with this considering I couldnt do 185# when I started this program 2 mos ago.

  52. BBG:
    1) 175 Squat Snatch. 30# less than my last PR at Power Snatch, but want to get better getting under the bar.
    2a) 140, 160, 180, 200
    2b) 185, 205, 205, 205

    Conditioning: 12 sets of
    Row 1, Rest 1- Sub 1:45/500m pace each time

  54. BBG:
    Snatch – hit 145….failed on 155 which is my current PR 6 times before saying screw it. really wanted 165, not today though.
    2a) 145, 155, 165, 175
    2b) 155, 155, 165, 175

    Conditioning: took me forever but it was a needed confidence boost on the 275 deep squats.

    extra: 20 minutes – even minutes 3 PC&J 135, odd minutes 2 ring muscle ups
    last 2 rounds bumped up to 155.
