121022

Posted on by

5 days, 2 camps, 314 cups of coffee, and an army of exercisers who may have finally realized that the tension in their hamstrings can be directly applied to move large loads through the greatest fulcrum in history—the ass.

It was a great week+weekend, which absolutely flew by. I’d like to thank our host, Chad Kibbey, of CrossFit Shifted, who provided us a perfect home away from home. I’d also like to give a special thanks to Marc and Daniel from CrossFit Code 3, and Dan from CrossFit LAX, for coming all the way out to the desert and assisting in any way possible. Thanks boys, for everything.

    • Snatch DL would have you come to a complete standing position just like a normal DL. For a Snatch First Pull you stop at the knee, thus the name “First Pull” because it is the first pull of the snatch.

    • Yeah, but if you’re referring to last modays SnatchDeadlift (stopping at knees), then it is the same thing. Stopping at knees is what makes last monday the same as this monday.

    Conditioning: 15:00
    Heavy American swings were still my downfall. I had to split them up into sets of 10. HS walks, I would get about 25′ then fall, then use 2 more attempts to finish.

  13. 1) 122-140-157-165-148
    Not typos – I was using fractional plates. Failed one rep at 140 and 165 due to forward catch.

    2a) 225
    2b) 165

    Cond DNF’d the HS Walks. Still did the T2B and KBs. Whatever.

  15. BBGym:
    1) Based off 160#. Failed reps @90% and both @95%. Wen’t back after the 4×1 and hit 95% once. My snatch technique is all off, I am always on my toes receiving the bar, even after trying to stay on my heels and pull the bar back. Very frustrating.
    2a) 205
    2b) 2×165, 170(4)

    Conditioning: only have 50# KB and my walks were broken up several times

  20. BB- based off 215# 1rm… Didn’t do the 1rm Saturday cuz my hammy felt like it would pop if I put under that much tension without a little rest lol… But no misses, hit 205 at the end super easy! Felt fast and strong!!

    2a – 245 and again felt solid thru whole ROM
    2b – 195… Ready for more!!!

    Skipped HS practice til later tonight in the yard

    Conditioning – 11:48, forearms were burning for that set of 25 swings at the end!! Fun WOD tho!!!

  21. BBG

  25. BBG:

    1: Done based off of 215… Couldn’t work out the past few days to personal stuff so I went for a 1RM on the last 4 reps. Got under 225 3 out of the 4 times but couldn’t stand it up.

    2a: 275
    2b: 185

    Skill work: Done

    Conditioning: 11:46

  26. Today was awful. Period.

    1) i failed at 90 & 95%, backed off and worked back up to 90% but still felt shitty. My shoulder is f-ing killing me in the overhead position. I feel like I’ve been hammering the snatch for 9-10 months with absolutely no progress what.so.ever!
    2a) 100, 130, 135 <– these are easy. They are fast and solid with good technique. When I pulled 100, which I actually thought was 120, I was certain I could have snatched it. Could it be that I am just not warming up enough? I'm just at loss for where to go, what to do to get my snatch numbers up?
    2b) 60, 65, 65

    Skill: done – got a couple of good ones, but nothing to write home about.

    Conditioning: Not sure of time because we all started staggered; I used the 40kg KB b/c we only have one 32. That was a horrible idea.

    • Steeeeeeeeeeve
      today was just another day of lifting heavy shit over your head. there will be many more days of lifting heavy shit over your head. you did your best, feel proud of that and move on.

      As far as the shoulder goes, you might want to seek out someone who knows how to do Advanced muscle integration therapy, or AMIT, I heard that John Welbourn was going and getting worked on in Kaysville while he was here for the CFFB cert at CrossFit the club so I went and checked it out, really helped sort out some issues i’d had since my motorcycle crash… Anyways, the master is Dr. Craig Buhler is Kaysville UT, I can get you their office’s number and they can see if there is anyone near you who does it if you want to give it a try..

      • Zach,
        Dude, thanks so much. I sort of needed that.
        And thanks for the ref for the Advanced muscle integration therapy – I will see if there are any practitioners around ATL area. Also, good call subbing the bear crawls – HS walks suck!

      • No problemo brother! hope you can get your broken stuff fixed up 🙂 and hs walks are a huuuuge weakness for me.. love to work on them but yea, bear crawls were a great sub to keep my workout shorter and intensity much higher.

  27. BBG:
    Based off110#. Failed both reps@95%, though 90% went really smooth and easy.
    2.a) 155#/175#/185#
    b) 85#/95#/105# (finally overcoming this fear of bar crushing my neck bone).

    Conditioning: 9:35min. RX.
    (My walking started with 2 steps at a time and ended up with 6, so it just shows that practise is everything:) ).

  29. Thanks for programming the wall facing hand stand holds last week. This made hand stand holds, shoulder touches, and hand stand push ups a hell of a lot easier. Can’t kip the HSPU this way, but it makes strict a lot easier.

  30. 1. Based off 205# failed both 95%. Felt weak today

  54. BBG- 95/100/115/120/100 Felt Good. Didn’t get a chance to 1RM Saturday, but I think I have a big PR coming this Saturday. Been really focusing keeping the shoulders stable and steady (my weakness in the snatch), and its getting consistent.

    2a & 2b @ 140. Probably need to go up on weight on 2a, could stand another 25 pounds probably. Next week for sure!

    Conditioning: 18:04
    T2B feel good, getting smoother and more reps unbroken then last week. Kip is much better.
    HS Walk- amazing, after keeping the same position as Nose/toes to wall, it started to get easier, but did 25′ turn around, fall, try again. Definitely slowed me down.

    KB-Holy hell, that was fun. Found that technique real quick. the Buy out set was not as pretty, form wise.
    All in all the programming is really leveling out my weaknesses in various movements! Loving the Outlaw Way!

  64. First off, I would like to say Thank You, for all the help that and hopitality that was shown to me this past weekend at Outlaw HQ. It was the perfect setting for finally breaking through some PR’s, Snatch 235# -> 245#, and C&J 280# -> 285#. And probably another 10-20lbs left in the my form. The Bar Muscle up WOD, 6 rds 1 MU, and a great amount of support form some Saturday morning Outlaws. The Blood Blister and tare in the middle of my palm are a nice little present. No really, I take my tares as a sign of good hard work! Thank you for everything Outlaw staff and new friends!
