As promised I’d like to discuss the methodology behind programming longer conditioning efforts, despite advocating for mostly working in the sub-12-minute range. I’m also trying to become more concise with writing, so I promise to TRY to do this just shy of dissertation level.
The conditioning effort which brought up this question/discussion was from 120824. Before we get to the discussion of the actual workout, let me explain a programming detail that I’ve shared with many people privately, but have never actually stated on this site. The conditioning work is likely written with Jason Hoggan in mind. That doesn’t mean it’s programmed for him specifically; it means that the end-goal, the absolute best-case-scenario number that I’m looking for, is based off of what I think he’ll do. Here’s why: for the better part of two years Jason was the absolute fastest person who I coached. Eventually I could literally tell you to within 30 seconds (he and many others can attest to this), exactly what his time would be on a WOD. It basically got to the point where, based on my goals for the effort, I would simply tailor the reps-rounds-loads of the WODs knowing almost exactly where Jason would finish the effort. Yes, now that I program for quite a few “fastest people”, it gives me a more broad scope to draw from. But what doesn’t change is the fact that these WODs are written for an ideal time, and many of you are VERY close to that time every day.
Last Friday’s work was written with a 16-18 minute ideal time in mind. Jason actually had the fastest time I know of in the low 17s—anything much faster than that, and I would have known I had short-changed the work. This is probably double the amount of time that I’d normally like for someone like Jason on their work, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t effective or was some sort of a long-slow aerobic piece. Here were the exact goals I had for that WOD, and the reasoning behind them:
Conditioning (breakdown)
9 Muscle-Ups (UB 25-40sec)
Row 500m (1:35-1:45)
40 Slapping Pushups (2:00-3:00)
30 KB OH Walking Lunges 24/16kg (UB 40-60sec)
20 Stone to Shoulder 120/80# (1:15-1:45)
30 Slapping Pushups (2:00-3:00)
20 KB OH Walking Lunges 24/16kg (UB 40-60sec)
10 Stone to Shoulder (1:00-1:30)
Row 500m (1:40-1:55)
9 Muscle-Ups (1:30-2:00)
-Put together a traditional timed conditioning effort that acts like interval work, and is slowed down by a high lactic movement after performing two completely different high intensity/anaerobic efforts. In other words, I wanted this effort to act like a 2 minutes on/2 minutes off interval piece, but instead of a complete 2 minutes recovery, the Slapping Pushups were used because there is almost no one that can just power through 40 of them without some significant rest. Jason actually told me his pushups were somewhere in the 6-7 minute range—which fits right into the breakdown above. The laying on the ground waiting to do more pushups was the rest portion of the interval.
-Use two-arm OH KB Walking Lunges to punish those who have lack of should mobility and proper lockout position (single arm are nowhere near as penalizing). After pre-fatiguing the arm extensors, pectoralis, and anterior deltoid with the pushups, the KB OH Lunges would be seemingly impossible for someone who tended to let lockout movements drift forward and away from the much larger and more effective trapezius. Whether this be an issue with mobility or simply laziness, the goal is to punish poor lockout by using an implement that will not allow the athlete to reinforce possible bad habits they’ve formed with a barbell.
That’s all you get for today. I guess if you can’t make it concise, just make it to be continued. More tomorrow night.
Spencer sent me a legitimately jaw-dropping video over the weekend. This video features Russell Aldredge, from CrossFit Deep/Outlaw Texas. Russell started the year with a 225# Snatch. This lift comes after spending the better part of the year following The Outlaw Way, and a whole lot of coaching from Spencer. Russell weighs just under 185#, has never competed in the sport of weightlifting, and performed a legitimate 7:38 Helen not long after this lift. This is not supposed to be possible.
Russell Aldredge – 275# Snatch (15# PR):
WOD 120827:
BB Gymnastics
1) 7X3 Hi-Hang Snatch (knee extension only)- medium/heavy but VERY fast, rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO
Notes: These are UB reps. If you have to drop the bar then lower the load.
2) 7X3 Hi-Hang Clean (knee extension only) + 1 Jerk – medium/heavy but VERY fast, rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO
Notes: Perform 3 Tall Cleans THEN 1 Jerk. These are UB reps. If you have to drop the bar then lower the load.
Strength
1a) 3X8 Weighted Strict Pullups – heavier than last week, rest 60 sec.
Notes: Use a weight that allows for at least 3-4 UB Pullups. These should not be all singles, but a few breaks are acceptable. If the total set takes more than 30 seconds then lower the weight.
1b) 3X8 Shoulder Press – heavier than last week, rest 60 sec.
Conditioning
4 rounds for total reps of:
In 90 seconds Row 250m then with the remaining time perform AMRAP of OHS @ 115/75#.
*Rest 90 seconds after each round (including the final round).
-THEN-
400m Run for time (absolutely all out effort).
Do you prefer a damper setting on the rows?

Violent Lift dude!!!! Stare was classic!!!
good insight on the programming. Keep it coming!

The FAQ’s say that ‘Today’ is a good day to start. I picked 120824 to start and got well and truly smashed. Had to scale everything and still ended up with a time just over 30 minutes. That said, I have enjoyed the programming and am looking forward to making some serious gains in both strength and fitness.
I enjoy reading Rudy’s musings and found the explanation of the programming very helpful in understanding how much I should have scaled the workout to be closer to the ideal time.
BBG:
Hi-Hang snatch 45-50kg
Hi-Hand clean + jerk 60-65kg
I liked these really felt that they were helping me develop my speed under the bar
Strength:
Strict pull-ups Body weight only (85kg) managed the first set UB, last set was a combination of singles and some doubles.
Shoulder press 35-45kg
Conditioning
completed with 35kg OHS. Only managed 8 reps and got my timer all screwed up on the run, but I was starting to cramp in my calf so I didn’t break any records!
I guess it’d be too much to ask (haha) for you to post the *”ideal”* time… something to shoot for? to gauge where we are…. HAHA! I know you’ll never do it.
BBG
High Hang Power Snatch: 65, 70, 75, 135 (2 sets).
Only 20 minutes to work, limited bumpers, hence the big jump. Had to drop and reset on the last two.
Are any of you guys splitting these up into two a days if so, how do you split it?
Session 1: BBG
Session 2: Strength and Conditioning
Snatch work
2 x 3 @ 60kg
5 x 3 @ 70kg
7 minutes to row 1000m then AMRAP wall balls = 67
Conditioning
1 = 10 reps
2 = 8 reps
3 = 9 reps
4 = 9 reps
400m run = 1:22 with both calves cramped up
Press 52.5kg, 57.5kg 60kg x 6
Pull ups 16kg across
Glad to know my 20:30 on Friday’s conditioning was a fail.
Life of a 1/4 Ton Exerciser.

Ha, I was going to say – I KNOW you don’t weight 1/4 ton! LOL
After trip to Chicago, feels like it.
Does anyone know what the equivalent distance on an AirDyne would be for a 250m row?
TL;DR – Sometimes, the conditioning work is far beyond the abilities of most of the people who follow this blog.
BBG: A)135 Across, B) 165 Across
Strength: 1 Pood KB, 135#
Conditioning: 11-12-12-13.
400 M Run – 1:40. Both calves cramped badly the last 100 m.
Been lurking for the summer and following for a week (now that I have access to bumpers), and I’ve got a question for the more experienced: is serious fatigue and muscle and joint soreness normal? If so, when does it go away? My wrists, elbows, and shoulders hurt from BB gymnastics, and my legs are sore from everything. My technique on the Oly lifts isn’t the best yet, but I’m working with light weights and will hopefully have access to a coach soon.
I’m 28, 5’10” and 170 lbs. BS: 325. DL: 405. BP: 265. OHP: 180. Power clean: 225. Power snatch: 150. (No true maxes yet for full lifts.) Sleep and diet are good.
Advice? HTFU? Acknowledge that it’s not for me and go drink a skinny latte?
If it’s muscle soreness, HTFU. If your joints are illegitimately bothering you, ease up a bit.
Just my opinion.
Make sure you are drink plenty of water and look at taking omega’s for joints. A lot of people will mistake joint soreness for muscle soreness around the joints. Bottom line, listen to your body, go hard when you can, ease up when you have too. May want to look at Amino supplements as well. I find it hard to take in enough calories for the amount of volume we do. By the way, the soreness never goes away if you are pushing hard enough…
I struggled (and still do) with the volume. I began taking BCAA’s and upped my calories big time and that has seemed to help. I know it can take a while to get through these training days and the last thing you want to do is “extra” work but you should really be doing some kind of post wod movement (low intensity row); it can really help decrease soreness.
-Two cents (or as we say “pence”) from an old guy
Thanks to all. I’ll eat more, ease up as necessary, and above all — HTFU.

****HELP****
When I get to just before lockout in the jerk and thruster (the last 1/4 of the lift) I have pain in my rear delts, both on my right and left arm but more so on the left. It does not hurt when pressing. It seems to be the more explosive movements that cause this. I have been foam rolling my lats and stretching. Has anyone had experience with this?
Changing your hand width might help. I had the same thing happen to me last year.
