120910

Posted on by

I have 3 very important points of business for this post. I’ll try to keep each as brief as possible, and would ask that those of you who have been following would take the time to really read and help with the second.

We are adding TWO MORE Training Camps World Tour dates. They will go live Wednesday morning at 9am EST, and both will be mid week camps. These will also be the final dates added to the schedule.

The first will be February 11th-13th in San Rafael, California at TJ’s Gym. Yes NorCal, we love you too.

The second will be March 6th-8th in Long Island, New York at CrossFit LIC. Long Island, home of Rakim.

Last week’s testing was the culmination of our first 12 week off-season cycle. To say that I’m happy with the results is a gigantic understatement. I said a few weeks ago that I was likely to publish this cycle as a 12 week template, and after seeing last week’s numbers I will absolutely be doing just that. I, however, need your help with data collection.

As some of you may know, I am a gigantic number nerd. Part of the reason I started this site was to use it as a tool for data collection. As we progressed through this cycle I realized I wanted to not just get some data, but I wanted a better collection tool. I want to know exactly what worked, what didn’t, and I want accurate numbers to support any claims of efficacy. That’s where you guys come in.

Below is a form that I need AS MANY OF YOU AS POSSIBLE to complete. I will be posting one of these Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday this week. They are short questionnaires that will allow you to list pertinent data harvested from our testing. I cannot emphasize this enough, even if you don’t post on a daily basis, I need you to fill these out. My goal is to get somewhere near 500 of you to submit all three questionnaires. This will make for one of the largest study groups I’ve ever heard of for a strength and conditioning study. The nerd in me is incredibly excited.

The PR numbers that are listed as “pre-cycle” can be from any time before June. The only exception would be the Snatch and Clean & Jerk (posted tomorrow). Due to the amount of maximal lifts performed with these, I’d like your highest lifts from any point in the cycle. Just so you know, the testing week actually began 120918, this Saturday was simply a work day.

For those of you attending the upcoming Raleigh Training Camp; we will be posting details for the camp tomorrow night on the actual Raleigh camp page. I will remind everyone of this tomorrow night and link to it.

  3. Way to go Coach Caleb.

    Rudy, just going to toss this out there – I do data analysis, sort of like, for a living. I’m a neuroscience professor by day but if you need/want any assistance with data analysis let me know.
    (Also: Kroger: Monster Rehab on sale $1.29 <– cheapest I've found!)

  4. Just to clarify with the three position snatch, we pull from floor to hang, pause, then to high hang, pause, then perform the snatch?

      • Thanks for asking and clarifying. I always watch the vids but i guess i missed this somehow?? I’ve been doing it wrong! (I thought it was the 3 pulls then snatch)

  6. This may be a dumba$$ noob question, but can you split the three parts of these workouts up over a day? Because of my schedule, I can’t spend that much time unbroken in the gym, but I can probably spread it out. Please be kind to a noob!

  7. Whats the difference between free-standing and not-free standing? is the demo video what we are supposed to do or is it a modified version of that?

    • Not-free standing is against a wall like in the video. Free standing is without support from some sort of structure, like a wall. So, it’s free standing in the open 🙂

  9. Back at it. Very busy last few weeks. Shoulder feeling better and back to snatching again.

    1) 50, 60×4, 65kg x 2 (going easy on my shoulder)
    2a) 65, 70kg x 4
    2b) 100, 130kg x 4

    Shoulder touch practice done!

    Cond. 8:10

  10. 1) 115#
    2a)165# (probably should have done more weight on these)
    2b) 115#

    Did shoulder touches (100) on the wall first, then got 74 free…did the wall because I didn’t think I could do them free-standing….learn something every day.

    Cond: 20:10 (handstand walks took me quite awhile….getting much better though)

  11. BBG

    1) 45kg x 5, 50kg,50kg
    2a) 65kg, 85kg, 85kg, 95kg, 95kg
    2b) 35kg, 35kg, 40kg, 40kg, 40kg

    Skill – still working on handstands against the wall and didn’t have a wall to use today

    Conditioning

    skipped the handstand walk

    used a 24″ box

    10:54

    Now that I am home I will work on shoulder touches using the wall.

  14. I cannot view the video: what is a shoulder touch? My guess is one hand touches opposite shoulder from the inverted position….?

  15. BBG
    1) 125 x 2, 130 x 5
    2a) 200

    Cond 14:58 Rx

    Last time I tried to handstand walk was May, found out the hard way I was too weak to even hold myself up and crumbled like a house of cards, partially tore my labrum, pretty happy to get through this one.

  23. Bbg –

    1) 185. Failed 1 hi hang
    2a) 265
    2b) 245 failed third on last set x.x

    10 minutes… Think i totaled 10 maximum

    Cnd –

    7:44 rx came down once on walks 2nd and 3rd rounds

  24. Attempted to search, but possibly screwed it up… I’ll ask anyway. How does Outlaw feel about straps on the BB gymnastics?

    • From what I’ve read on here in the past if the movement is from the ground, don’t use straps but on something like multiple unbroken hang snatches, use them. So this one is kind of iffy. I would say use them if you absolutely need them but if you’re grip doesn’t fail you then forget it.

    • Never use them on cleans or any of its variations (It’s OK and sometimes preferred to use them on clean pulls though).
      For snatches – as per JohnB’s comments

  25. BBG

    1) 135, 135, 145, 150, 150, 150, 155#

    mfs 8/8/3 I sucked at everything today except burpees 🙁

    2/2/1

  30. Quick, maybe stupid question, I have definitely made progress on my snatch in the last cycle, but due to not always being around a gym the past few weeks I have missed more than a few days. My squat, clean andbench improvements however are not adrquate. Would you guys suggest I go back and refinish the last week or two in the cycle or count my losses and start from today?

  32. Questionaire complete

    BBG

    1) 125, 135×3, 145×3 felt good

    2a) 205, 225×4
    2b) 145, 165, 175, 185, 195 (2/3, lost it standing up on last rep ugh!)

    Skill practice complete

    Conditioning: 10:36 Handstand walks were pathetic

  33. BBG
    1) 135×4 sets 140×3 sets
    2a) 225 all
    2b) 185 all

    Conditioning:

    12:00 (Handstands walks are for children) And i need to work on them. FML I also crashed hardcore on the box jumps and skinned up my leg. My mom wrote me a doctors note and everything.

  34. Correct me if I’m wrong but…Following rest times exactly as written makes me think these should be working sets. Meaning work up to the heaviest weight you believe possible for the allowed rest time, then knock out all sets with that weight. More power to you if you can switch weights around and still get ready to go with only 60 seconds, I am too slow and lazy for that 🙂

    BBG
    1) 185 trying to use less muscle and be all all technical n junk

    2a) 225
    2b) 185
    Skill/Cond later

    • I figure it is better to go up in weight if I can, and once I get started I typically have 5’s, 10’s and 2.5’s already to go so I’m not walking around. It does add a little bit of time, but a decision I’m making consciously…

    • skill
      kicked up to wall and attempted feebly to pull my hands off the ground.. made it a few inches on best attempts.
      Conditioning
      26:39 rx more skill work really, burpee box jumps no prob. butterfly kips getting way better, knocking out 11-15 at a time. However, walking on my hands is still really wonky.

    • I agree, too many people include their warm up sets. I may add 5-10lbs but I work up to heaviest possible then start my working sets.

    • Okay I did the same weights as Zachary Brodis today ( yes I did scroll up to make sure I spelled his name right so he wouldn’t cyber-obliterate my being). My point in mentioning this is his max snatch is a shit ton more than mine. I think I saw him post 285 or so.

      Can a coach tell me what, approximately a 1rm should be, if doing the weights above??

  35. BBG
    1) 95, 105, 110, 115, 115, 120, 125#
    125# is most I’ve ever done on a 3-pos snatch
    a) 185, 195, 185, 185, 185#
    b) 115, 125 (1 fail), 120 (1 f), 115, 115#
    Not sure what was up with snatch balance today?!?

    Skill and Conditioning later

  36. BBG:
    3-pos snatch: up to 82 (actually I made the full, missed the hang and then made the hi-hang, PR)

    130kg
    82.5 (pr; I hate this exercise)

    10 min practice: I got a total of about 50-100, the best string I got was 6, 3/side (need work)

    Cond: 11:10 – i hate to complain, but my legs were literally sore to the touch after the testing week, so those box jumps blew!

  37. We’ve been doing Outlaw CrossFit programming at my affiliate and I officially made the switch to OW today. I couldn’t be more excited, but I’ve got to manage some of the volume to deal with some pretty harsh patellar tendinitis (hence, no SB).

    BBG:
    1)165/165/175/175/185/185/185 – 60 sec rest is a fast pace – much faster than I expected – and faster than I prefer.
    2a) 225×5
    2b) –

    Cond: 11:27 – Handstand walks were turrible.

    handstand walks are the worst, with the exception of ring muscle up to handstand pushup

  39. First time poster, first day starting Outlaw. Crossfitting since May 12′. Need to work on strength. My Pr’s are weak compared to others and that must change. Today is the second day I’ve ever snatched. I suck. I can’t do overhead squats, I can’t snatch. Not sure if it’s mobility or that I’m retarded (prob both) but whenever I sit in a full squat with arms over head my chest/arms fall forward. I can’t figure it out. Anyways, I made a commitment to work on it and try this program out for strength numbers. Get ready to laugh…

    10 minutes shoulder touch (against wall) most I could get was 5. Again I suck.

  44. BBG:
    1) 4×135, 2×145, 1x155lbs (last 3 I dropped in between because my grip just couldn’t handle it, weight went up easy enough but couldn’t bring it down and stay in my hook grip).

    2a) 275lbs (limited by how much pain my thumbs could tolerate)
    2b) 155lbs

    Skill:
    done, but went kind of easy, didn’t want to blow shoulders up before the conditioning.

    CON:
    10:05, handstand started to fall apart at the end, last walk got pretty ugly!

  45. Couldn’t program a better WOD of things I suck at. Maybe a nice 800m between rounds really would have completed that anal pounding.

    185 for all BBG because I have a loose vagina and was told by Coach not to go above until I learn to snatch.

    16:50 on the anal pounding.

  46. I follow a week behind on the Way due to job requirements. I missed Fri and Sat of last week (which is really two weeks ago). I would normally just pick up where I left off and skip a rest day or two to get back on cycle. As I mature in my training approach I don’t know if this is wise. I’m not a cherry to this stuff and can do some work. What do you guys do?

    I’m especially concerned because last weeks cycle, which I should be starting today had I not missed two days, is a testing phase.

    What’s y’all’s philosophy/coaching advice for this?

  47. BBG

    2a) 245
    2b) 225 ( fail on 3rd rep 3rd set)

    DL 225×1 275×4

    10 Minutes of touches, 8 still can’t get this, I fall out every time I try and half the time can’t touch

    Cond:
    Scaled: Modified Outlaw Crossfit WOD
    14 Burpee over box @24
    21 KBS @24kg
    60 Sec Handstand Hold
    21:40

    Need more practice in the handstand with all movements

  71. Back was super fatigued so kept it really light today at 62kg. Stop the hang snatches at set four and did the halt snatch deadlifts and snatch balances at the same weight. Nick Frasca gave me great cues and helped me with keeping my hips higher.

    Conditioning:
    Since my handstand walks are nonexistent I piked up on the thirty inch box and did five revolutions. I stopped after two rounds (I know I had one more round, I’m not an idiot). I felt terrible and just not good at all.

    6/6/6 (ozzy!)

  72. BBG:
    1) 155lb, 155, 165 for remainder.
    2a) 275, 275, 275

    Felt super solid on the bbg stuff today. Good getting back into the groove after a solid test week.

    Skill: Complete. Managed quite a few good sets of 10 in there. This was fun.

    Conditioning: 12:55.

    2b. 135×3 (ran out of time…weight light but heaving was awkward compared to normal SB)

    Skill – no time

    Conditioning – 2 rounds + 3 pullups in 12 mins

    Gym was closing so had to cap it. Ate major shit on 4th box jump. Huge gash on left shin. Was all fucked up after that. Pullups sucked – hand is ripped from Saturday’s Cindy. And I can’t hs walk to save my life so did 12 hspu instead. The burpee box jumps were much rougher than expected. Cue violin.

    conditioning: (subbed inv ring rows for pullups bc the bars were all bein used by class, plus my hands hurt so i didn’t care too much-got lifeasrx comp this weekend, dont wanna tear)
    13:50- my hs walks werent on point today. Took me about 3-5 tries to reach 25′ feet then turn around…there was a few times that i just stood in a free standing hs and would bend my legs as far as they would go and i still wouldnt move forward..wtf!) im gunna keep workin on those walks!

  87. BBG:
    3 Post Snatch – 115-120-120-125-135#
    • Could of gone heavier but was having trouble holding on to the bar coming down. Thumb wasn’t feeling it today I guess. Only 1 miss at 135 from the ground as I think I pulled a bit to hard, lost it behind me.

    Halting Snatch DL to knee – 205# x 5 sets
    • Could of done more but thumb was feelign pretty sore after the 3 Pos snatch.
    Heaving Snatch Balance – 135-145-145-165-175
    • Didn’t have a miss till 175, and it was missing on my first rep. So restarted and then got all 3

    Conditioning
    21:50 RX

    2a. 225 across
    2b. Did one set at 135 and then skipped the rest

    Snatches felt super solid today. Tweaked my left shoulder a little bit trying to save the final snatch at 180. Was feeling it on the snatch balances so I cut them after one set.

  99. 1) 60kg, 60kg, 65kg, 65kg, 70kg, 70kg, 70kg (F on hi-hang)

    Skill – Practiced shoulder touches but I couldn’t even get one. Sigh..
    I’m still very tired and sore in the triceps/chest/back from Cindy

  100. BB Gymnastics:
    1) 7X1 3-Position Snatch (floor, hang, hi-hang) – heaviest possible, rest 60 sec.
    145×4 155(failed) 155×2
    2a) 5X3 Halting Snatch Deadlift (stop at knees) – heavy, rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO
    255 for all
    Notes: The demo video demonstrates the movement performed to the thighs, the version we are performing today should stop at the knees.
    2b) 5X3 Heaving Snatch Balance – heavy, rest 60 sec.
    160 for all
    Skill
    10 minutes Free-Standing Shoulder Touch practice. DEMO VIDEO (not free-standing)
    complete
    Conditioning
    3 rounds for time of:
    14 Burpee Over-the-Box Jumps 30/26″ (touching the top of the box is required, but opening the hip is not)
    21 Pullups
    50′ Handstand Walk

    My dumbass forgot the burpee’s…without them I got 8:29 (handstand walks sucked due to my back being super tight today)

  101. BBG: 3 pos snatch 75X2,85X2,95X1,105X1,115X1 (last one looked real ugly)

    2a 185
    2B 95

    Skill: done facing wall I could get 10 in a row. Facing away I can barely lift a hand.

    Cond: 22:30 subbed 2 wall walks for hand stand walk. Pretty good sub to preserve the stimulus but I would up the amount if you want to get closer to the time it would take a novice HS walker. The rest of this thing smoked me. Burpee box jump overs??

    This is the start of my second week following this program to the letter.

    1) working sets of 70kg, (failed high-hang on set 5)
    2a) working sets of 100kg
    2b) 80 (failed on sets 4&5)

    Messed up the BBG in that I did all of 2a, then all of 2b, rather than alternating. I’ll blame it on my noobness. I know how to read the workouts now.

    Strength:
    Hand stand touches were rough at first, once I figured it out though, I was stringing together 10-15 at a time.

    Cond:

    18:25 Rx

  108. I was attempting to figure out when the new cycle started and the clue I was using was from this post: “Just so you know, the testing week actually began 120918, this Saturday was simply a work day.”
    Testing began on a date that is in the future?

  109. M-6′-200lbs-25yrs. 

    SN: 115-125-125-135-135-145-155

  110. Snatch- 115 for all. First day in 2 weeks since knee felt ok but did not want to push it,

    a) 205 all sets
    b) skipped (yoga started at gym)

    10:00 capped myself on wods at 10 min 2 full rounds.

  112. 2a) 100lbs (coming off of a tweaked back)
    2b) 55/65/75/75/75 – had problems getting down into the hole quickly until the last set, so kept the weight low.

    Skill:
    not free standing practice.

    Conditioning: 14:09 scaled as this: 20′ over the box jumps/pullups/50 against the wall shoulder touches

  114. Changed all my lifting & strength work, but will continue with the Outlaw metcons – since I have a serious weakness to psyching myself out of wods.

    Three rounds for time:
    14 Burpee Box Jump Overs @ 30″
    21 Pull-ups (all UB)
    50′ HS Walk
