Yes, this IS the mythical de-load (and testing) week that you shitheads have been asking about for the last 700 years. Enjoy, and DO NOT add a bunch of your gym’s conditioning work on top of what is written. Please try to let your exercise addictions not completely control you this week.
Looks like I’m gonna break the thesis up into an every-other-post format. This will allow me to have an actual editor (thank you, Terri) chop it up before the public gets to have eyes on. Back at it tomorrow night, with Technique & Loading.

Have you been following outlaw since regionals? Just curious

nice work zach! I’m going to start posting on here..

deadlifts are definitely a weakness of mine
First Day on OUTLAW
115lb Snatch
Diane 6.20
DL @ 200lb
Push ups subbed for HSPU
1) 175, barely missed 185 thrice
Cond 6:33 Rx
3min PR
HSPUs were great today but back was done by round of 15 and had to resort to brutally slow singles. I have to believe that it was part of the plan to do Diane fatigued this week and I am still happy with a PR. I know it’d be faster if I was at full strength, but that’s probably not the ‘desired stimulus’. At least that’s what I’m telling myself…
24:42, first time completing as rx. more than twice as many rx HSPU as I’ve ever been able to complete in a single workout
BBG
1. 95# struggled today
Conditioning
competition sat so I practiced for that
175
6:30 feet on 30 inch box for HSPU
1.) 205, 225ff (220 is PR)
2.) 4:36*PR as Rx
BBG-
205# (10# off PR)
Cond-
4:48…
PR by :30 but still upset with the time. DL were fine but Im worse at “strict” HSPU then I used to be. My kipping has got much better so I had to do kipping the entire time, and I feel like getting as many strict HSPU would be the best for time in a workout like this.
275 Snatch (5#PR!)
8:10 Diane
Tried pacing my HSPU early but still ended up crashing and burning. Fuck.
BBG
230 Snatch
237 HI-Hang Snatch. I know makes no senses. Working on staying back and over the bar longer when pulling from the floor.
COND
6:03 – HSPU 3″ deficit.
Regional Standard HSPU time is 3:45. I never would have thought 3″ would be that much harder. Not sure if i am happy with this.
BBG
123 lbs,,, same as old PR, but 10 lbs up from when we tested last.
Diane
4:29 Rx (PR by 1:47. did everything unbroken, need to work on getting HSPUs faster

No Diane though did 12.4 open wod and got 258 which I was pretty happy with
255 Snatch (260 PR)
Diane 7:29 (PR 6:14) HSPU killed me
Snatch:
-only got to 93# today (10# off of a PR). Caught 98 at the bottom but lost it on the way up.
“Diane”
8:43 PR like crazy.
-The last time I did this maybe 6 months ago, I finished in the teens with a hspu scale of 9-6-3 so I’m very happy with today’s time.

Diane-5:04 pr by 16 seconds
BBG: 185 snatch 20 off my PR
leaving the bar in front
Diane 3:48RX (:15pr)
First time doing it all unbroken
No snatch. I have to do what spencer arnold says now.
diane- 1:58 (20 second pr)
the camera kept moving so you can’t see the last 9 hspus, and yes i know my deadlifts were on the border. But whatever the deadlifts in this workout are irrelevant. They should rename the workout 45 hspus for time.
whatever, you didnt even do the last hspu’s
143lbs
2:32 (not regionals standard on the hspu hand width)
snatch 108 kg
diane 3:25 had sub 3 but rushed 9 round and had to break it up

200lbs, 215f
14:55 Rx
‘Nuff said! All good!
One other thing…my bag! Worked the Snatch from the Hang position…above knee.
240 Snatch. 5lbs PR. pretty stoked to hit this. Missed it bunch 2 weeks ago
Modified Diane in 10:40. Half rep volume HSPU but on paralettes to neutral. Working around a tweaked wrist. These were hard as hell.
Guess my CNS was still jacked from Friday bc I had a really shitty day. I was so pumped for this, so I’m a lil salty about it.
Snatch: hit 170 failed @180 many times. PR is 175. Couldn’t get out of the squat at first then it just got worse.
Diane: 6:41rx it’s a pr by over a minute but I’m still really disappointed in my time. Unbroken 21s (discouraging when you look at the clock, 1:36, dan bailey is already done) then it all went to shit on the hspu’s
Snatch 50kg
Diane
60kg 10.53
2/2/7
playing it smart (ish) today. no 1rm snatch, no diane.
pulled muscle in the back of my neck from the damn deficit hspu last week and i know i wont hold back. I’ll just be an idiot and make it worse.
played a bit with lighter snatch just to go through ROM.
worked a bit on ring dip and deadlifts.
decided to test Ring HSPU at my new bodyweight, 10# heavier than before:
I HIT FOR 5 STRAIGHT, no climbing!!! BOOM! that made me happy.
