More from the weekend…
Nuatu Tsegga: PR of 210# on the Snatch @ BW of 165#. No big deal, just slamming barbells…in mother-f**king Afghanistan.
CrossFit Adrenaline & CrossFit Gwinett: CF Adrenaline finished 1st overall, and CF Gwinett 3rd overall at the South Georgia Throwdown. The team from Adrenaline continues to simply win everything since their 22nd place finish at the Games. This was not only the first podium, but the first ever competition for the team from Gwinett.
Jason Khalipa: Best time on “Tommy Mac” – “about 14 minutes”.
Jay Rhodes: PR of 330# on the Clean (and some VVS).
WOD 121030:
Strength
20 minutes to establish a 1RM High-Bar Back Squat.
Conditioning
3 rounds for time of:
10 Deadlifts @ 275/185#
50 Double-Unders
*Rest 10 minutes.
3 X ME UB Pullups – rest as needed.
That kandahar barbell spike is so badass
What is a ub pull up?
SMH
UNBROKEN.
You must have won the magazine contest the other day.
Ultra Bounce pull up.. Where you “bounce” out of the bottom to achieve more reps..
Unbroken pull-ups. Stay on the bar for as many as possible.
you should read the FAQ
If you’re being serious, it means unbroken.
^ You jest
UB = Unbroken. Pay it forward and tell someone else who doesn’t know, eventually that question won’t have to be answered EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
Maybe….
unbroken. check FAQ http://outlawcoach.wordpress.com/faq/faqs-for-dumbass-noobs/
Unbroken, read the FAQ section 🙂
What was the best time for women on Tommy?
I saw Sam Briggs get 17ish.
I did 15 something…
Ub= unbroken. 3 attempts to do as many unbroken pull-ups as possible
Do you rest ten minutes in-between each round? And I’m new here so what’s a ME UB pull up?
Khalipa is a monster. I did the WOD with two active-duty men at my Box on Saturday and we almost lost our cookies.
Kudos to the teams! And AWESOME Outlaw article on Again Faster: https://www.againfaster.com/en/blog/2012/07/10/finding-his-way/ From back in July, but worth noting again because Outlaw produces champs.
Ready to kill it.
UB stands for Unbroken. That means as much pull ups as you can without falling from the bar.
@gmo “ub” pull ups means “unbroken” pull ups!
BBG) 1RM Hi Bar Back Squat – 140kg PR, failed 145 twice

Gonna have to go out on a limb and say that seeing my team on the Outlaw Way blog is about 100 times cooler then being on CF HQ. 😉 Thank you, Rudy, for the shout out but most of all thank you for developing this program. All 6 of us have seen gains in the past 3-4 months that we never thought were imaginable. They don’t call you the Bearded Wizard for nothing!! Congrats to CF Gwinnett on their first competition and first podium finish, that is not the last time we will see those peeps. Watching Caleb Williams C&J in an uneven parking lot was the cherry on top to a pretty awesome weekend.
Even non-CrossFit CrossFit gyms are trying Tommy Mac… http://irontribefitness.com/Home/WODScores/243
Ha! That’s funny shit right there. These Guys tried to create Thier own CF affiliate dynasty. CF, had none of it and took the affiliation away. They still do ‘CF’. And now they are doing ‘the outlaw way’… Just riding on coat-tails.

Strength:
1) 290 15lb HBBS PR
-Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing a violent hip drive out of the hole? Whenever I fail it is because my hips shoot up and put my back at an awful angle, or maybe it’s a lower back weakness?
Conditioning:
6:05 Rx-DU’s held me up, DL’s all unbroken
M/F/S
4/2/1
*Strict ring pull ups: 12,8,7
could be a weaker posterior chain. i had the same problem. i was really quad dominant. my hamstrings, glutes, and lower back lacked a lot of strength. been doing a lot of glute ham raises, back extensions, good mornings, pendlay rows. a bunch of posteior chain accessory work. and it’s helped to fix the problem….. hope that helps a little bit.
Back squat 370. Last week was the first time in months where I could finally start squatting. So I’m pretty happy with 370.

BBG) 1RM Hi Bar Back Squat – 220lbs. PR from last week at 205lbs. Just need to keep working to catch up to all the beasts on here.
COND) 16:40RX – went UB on Deadlifts. DU is something I am learning right now. It is not as easy as I thought it was. I did manage to string 3, 4 all the way up to 8 without having to stop. All and all I need to keep working at them, most of time was spent working on the DU’s.
ME PULLUPS – 15, 10, 10. I believe I am using way to much swing for kipping. I can do more strict pull-ups than kipping, but I wanted to work on my weak area.

Great day.
Strength: 475lb (Up 25 pounds from 05Sept2012)
I have to say that I am honestly blown away by the results. A year ago, I was at 365 on a great day. To jump 25 pounds in less than two months and PR on Fran really says a lot about the balance this programming delivers. I almost hit 485, stalled on the way up. I see 500 getting up in 6 months or less.
Conditioning:
As Rx’d
