Remember: 9AM EST on Saturday the 28th, is officially the day, time, and moment of Outlaw TOURMAGGEDON. We will be releasing tickets for SIX more World Tour dates at the exact same moment (I know, we’re really just making the registration and payment link live, but that sounds effing boring). Those dates are:
December 7th – December 9th
Providence, RI
CrossFit Providence
December 12th – December 14th (this is Wed-Fri)
Miami, FL
I Am CrossFit
March 1st – March 3rd
Dallas, TX
CrossFit Deep Ellum
March 8th – March 10th
Brooklyn, NY
CrossFit Virtuosity
March 29th – March 31st
Stoney Creek, ON
Outlaw North
April 5th – April 7th
Murfreesboro, TN
CrossFit Murfreesboro
We would ask that if you have any online banking you need to do, or if there’s any “adult videos” you need to upload, that you would go ahead and take care of that stuff now. The internets will certainly burn to the ground within seconds of TOURMAGGEDON, and we don’t want you to be left without knowing what that $3.84 charge on your debit card was for (Monster Rehab and grapes at 7-11, that’s what it always is for me).
Today Jay Rhodes was painting at Outlaw North. He has been working so hard trying to get the place open, he hasn’t had much time to work out. He decided, however, he wouldn’t let work stop him today. He decided he’d get his Front Squats in while painting (yes, he’s like 3 days behind), and he’d use his work as a chance to get some hypoxic training in. You know, just in case you ever need to do a weightlifting meet at a severe oxygen deficit. Effing Canadians, so smart.
WOD 120728:
BB Gymnastics
1) 3 attempts to establish a 1RM Snatch.
2) 3 attempts to establish a 1RM Clean & Jerk.
Notes: Treat this like a meet. Warmup to a few heavy singles, including your opener, then plan your attempts wisely. Do not just guess at your lifts. Have a plan in mind before the first lift, then take approximately 2-4 minutes in between attempts. DO NOT allow yourself more than 3 attempts of each lift.
Strength
Work quickly to a near 2RM HBBS. Then every 30 seconds, for 5 sets, remove 5% and perform 2 reps.
Notes: Your “near” 2RM should be a difficult first rep and a VERY difficult second rep. Do not miss, but do not cut yourself short. Try to get to your “near” 2RM with no more than 5 sets.

Rudy, I don’t mean to be a shit but any way a few questions I been working the program on the days training is light for my unit and or I’m not playing with guns in the woods. I am also my units functional fitness coach (cf), for about 120 infantry dudes, known for taking souls of men befor the sun comes up in our box, it means alot for me to attend your camp befor my up coming deployment to a certin shit hole most of America has forget we are even fighting in, the providence RI looks like a doable drive from from fort drum. Here are the ?
Is there a military discount you offer ?
If my dates don’t match up for what ever reason can I please have my money back ?
If it starts to sell out befor I can put the funds together can you please hold me a slot ?
I know you guys are in high demand so I’ll completely understand if it’s no to all of the above, and won’t toss the outlaw name under the bus to bad, keep doing great shit for the community !!!

So amped! Finally got our gyms top CrossFitters on board with giving “The Way” a shot. Starting Monday everyone who wants to compete (individual or team) will be following The Outlaw Way. We’ll have about 10-14 people following so I won’t have to do all the workouts by myself anymore
Snatch
90kg, 97.5kg, 102.5kg miss
Clean and Jerk
120kg, 127.5kg miss, 128.5kg
Total = 226kg (498lb)
HBBS ~2RM @ 160kg
% work done at 152.5, 145, 136, 128.5, 120
Conditioning
Overestimated length (don’t we all!) 2 x 10kg + 1 5kg plate (5″ total) either side of an abmat for HSPU, 85kg for HPC
Absolute grinder of a session but refused to stop
Total time = 33:16
HSPU the weak link, but getting 48 done off a deficit is a huge PB
MFS = 344
Nice work!! I was looking for someone posting their time for conditioning. I felt the same as you…DON’T STOP!
Thanks I did find that to be pretty weak, I didn’t hear anything from the staff yet, fingers crossed
Dude, definitely going to have to write that rep scheme down for the conditioning.

If you live south of Waco Tx. Make some noise we need a world tour stop in Austin or Boerne. Free tip- don’t teach a 8am class if the world tour goes live at 8am. Dallas sold out in 7min.
Outlaw World Tour please make a stop in Austin or Boerne. Come on South Texas, I’m sure everyone didn’t sign up in time, make some noise

Anyone else see this yet. It’s another program that essentially follows the same methods as Rudy. Only difference is they do more maxing/ train 6 days a week( from what they posted so far)
i don’t know what it’s called, as you didn’t specify, but personally I don’t think I could handle any less rest. I already wake up daily feeling like megatron kicked my goddamn teeth in
Feel free to cuss yourself out anytime you’d like.
I feel dumb.. i forgot to post the link to the site…

Got through the double unders at 12:30 and cut it.
Snatch: 82.5 (new PR, my snatch sucks and I’ve pretty much been muscle snatching everything, including the 80 before this 82.5, then I started to feel it and get under today; then I missed 85 a few times, shocked myself by getting under the weight and my coach was like – keep doing that! not miss, get under. LOL)
CJ: 113 (pr)
Skipped squats – time
Conditioning: 18:38
Went and seen a coach this morning to work on the Snatch..Helped me out alot, still far from perfect.. Only looks perfect with 65lbs lol, once i add weight it starts getting ugly again. But a few small things i was doing wrong were corrected and i just had to go for a PR.
Snatch- Hit 135lbs for a PR.. Still not alot of weight but still got some form to work on, next weekend will be another PR now that i know what to work on next week, i can feel it… Barely missed 140 twice, lost it in the bottom of the squat.. One I landed flat on my butt haha.
Clean and Jerk- Hit 170lbs for a 5lb PR and finally can jerk my own body weight..
Gotta work on a harder drive outta the dip and a longer split.
Oh yeah, gym was getting ready to close so didnt get in strength and Metcon

1- 185 clean failed 205 3 times, kept loosing it to the front. Filmed it a figured put I need to work on pulling down and under more aggressively, kept jumping backwards instead of under the bar. Pr is 195
2- 240 clean, failed 245 3 times. Pr is 265 but shoulder are fatigued and sore from incline. Definitely need to work that more.

1- 185 clean, failed 205 3 times. 195 is current PR, kept loosing it to the front, finally filmed it and now I see that when I’m pulling under I’m jumping back. Need to work on more aggressive pull UNDER, not down and back. Any recommendations or tips are appreciated.
2- 240 clean, failed 245 3 times, PR is 265. SHoulders seem really worked from incline yesterday, not something that I practice and it shows.

backsquat: 238 is my 2 rm (228/213/203/193/183)
conditioning: 19:35 (used an abmat and 45’s on top of 15’s) made sure this was for quality, didn’t rush through the movements.
Was really short on time, so Spencer had me run through a slight alteration of things:
1) Hi-Hang snatch — start at 135# and work up by 10# until 3x fails — hit 215# and missed at 225#
2) Hi-Hang Clean & Jerk — same thing, starting at 185# — got to 265# but was smoked
3) HBBS — 10min to establish 2RM-ish, then 3×3 @ 90%. Hit 385# and missed 405#… felt weak
4) Metcon (same as above) — 14:50
(Used 45s w/ 2-10s stacked, abmat in between. HSPUs were the limfac… shock)
M/F/S – 2/6/4
It’s good to be back.
1) 80kg. 3 Fails on 85k – I was very close on the last rep
2) 110kg – Average
Strength – 170kg. 160/150/140/130/120 on reps – All easy. The 170kg reps were difficult after yesterdays deadlifts
Conditioning – Subbed 75kg HPC’s and normal depth HSPU’s.

Hi Coach!
Just wanted to say that I completed my third Outlaw WOD today, and this stuff is pretty sick. My husband and I are both enjoying your programming and are super happy to have found you. Josh (the husband) is attending your workshop in Miami and we can’t wait for that! We are a brand new affiliate here in South Florida (CrossFit SoFla) and are always trying to learn and grow as athletes and coaches, and we appreciate the awesomeness of your programming.
Have a fabulous day!!
Respectfully,
Steph Thompson
Knee has been feeling better so I thought I’d go for it today. Sort of a bad idea.
Snatch – 185 – matches current PR
C&J – 255 – matches all time PR – this last attempt made my knee feel like it was going to explode and made me want to call it a day but I stuck through.
Squats – 275 for all – after my knee pain i was just trying to stick it out. Glad i did.
Conditioning –
20:37 – I dont see how some guys do it. I didnt think I did all THAT bad.
Cond:
No deficit. 19:15
Cond only- 28:55. Rough
So I saw today’s work and thought “I’m gonna be working out all day….” And then I realized – “I’m gonna be working out ALL DAY!!!!!!”
Gymnastics
Still – was NOT feeling maxing out today, and I did it Oly meet style last week anyway, so I worked up to 85% today on Snatch and C&J and really focused on form. Watching the Olympics gave me some inspiration and good mental pictures to focus on.
Also – I did conditioning before squats. I didn’t want to warm up to 120 hang cleans after the backsquats….
Conditioning: 23:58 RX
Strength: Still injured so taking it easy on squats (ugh0, but was happy I got up to 175lbs for a double, it was heavy, but near my former 2RM, but I haven’t lost as much strength as I thought. Also, I rounded on this one…
175lbs, 165lbs, 155lbs, 145lbs, 135lbs, 130lbs
1RM
Snatch- up to 155(F)
Clean- Up to 245. Hit clean pretty easy but missed Jerk
(Will not do this non warm up again next week. Purpose of working to max is to be warm and ready to go) Tweaked back from being cold.
Squats- Back not feeling hot so did all sets at 315lbs. 2RM is around 375-385
Conditioning- 18:30 Rx.
(Hand stand pushups were pretty easy 45 and 35 lb plate stacked with abmat. Probably 5-6″. Went strict first couple rounds. Started kipping and those were easy glad I have these now. Power Cleans were a grind. Could not string them together. Dropped after each one and picked back up to hang clean.)
Went to Lake later on and made up swim from earlier in the week. Not as good of a swimmer as I use to be.
Not a good lifting day… made sure to just try 3 of each

Conditioning:
DNF @ 24:00 wheels came off the bus, HSPU with P-Bars 4″ deficit were easy/ok did them all unbroken until 12. Hang Power Cleans crushed my soul, and D/U’s were even worse. I did the first round of the decent and then called it.
Hey Rudy I just wanted to say,
I was at a Level 1 Olympic Lifting cert. This past weekend and while we were going through the snatch the owner and head coach of the gym (California Strength) was watching me and was impressed. I told the teacher of the course what are some good competitive numbers for a lifter in my weight class? Come to be the numbers I am doing right now are past an international qualifying level. The coach wanted me to join his team to lift for him (that team having a couple world and international champions) So I just wanted to thank you for this programming and I let him know it was because of you I got to my level. I will keep you updated on how training is going with him.

Rudy,
Seeing as you sold all dates out in just a couple days max. Here’s to asking for another date between NY and Boston, preferably Hartford, CT. Or even another date in Providence. Hoping to meet you guys. Phenomenal programming as I have seen so far.

I was able to get 210 on the snatch from the blocks and got under but could not hold 215 a few weeks ago. However, I have not been able to get near that weight lately. Nt sure what is I wrong, but I feel like I am not sitting back far enough in the bottom. I am getting enough height on the bar but I am losing it forward every time.

Stopped there, mentally fucked. I feel like I should have done everything unbroken with this scaling. Just didnt have it today. Working hard on the mental aspect…
Other than losing weight any advice for increasing strict pull-up numbers. Best is 6 reps to failure. I am 5’6″. 207lbs on a good day. Currently 7 months into crossfitting. Went from 1 to 6 that time.
