BBG
1) 7X2 First Pull + Hang Clean + 1 Jerk – heaviest possible, rest 60 sec.
Notes: The single Jerk should come after the second Clean. This movement should be performed with a pull to the knees—First Pull, a 3 second pause at the knees, then a Clean from the hang position (at the knees).
2a) 3X5 Push Press – heaviest possible, rest 60 sec.
2b) 3X5 Bent-Over Rows (supinated grip) – heavy, rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO
Strength
1) HBBS (based off 130129): 1X5 @ 80%, 1X3 @ 85%, 1X2 @ 90%, 2X1 @ 95% – rest 2-3 minutes.
2) 5X2 Pause Front Squats – heaviest possible (no misses), rest 90 sec.
Notes: Reps should be performed with a fast descent, 5 count pause in the absolute bottom, then bounce and explode up.
Conditioning
5 rounds for total reps of:
1 min. to complete 5 Power Cleans @ 155/105#
-with the remainder of the minute complete ME Split Jerks @ 155/105#
1 min. ME Burpees
5 rounds of burpees, or is that separate?
1 round = 5 PC + ME Split Jerks in1min, then ME burpees in 1min.
(Total working time = 10min).
I am assuming since there is nothing said about rest, the 5 rounds are a continuous 10min effort? Or would it be rest as needed?

what are you guys doing for warm up? ive been doing random shit and need to hone it in… yesterday (200 DU w gas mask, 30 bar muscle ups) sometimes crossfit warm up if I’m feeling lazy… thanks guys!
that sounds nuts…i do some joint mob and some barbell drills to move into the BBG…i want to be good and warm for bbg but not tired, so i can stick to rest periods but still focus on moving as much weight as possible. if you do all that then the programming after that, i envy your time and energy.
cl, i do a quick foam roll on my back legs and calves, ball work in my rotator cuff region, then hit the DU as goat work and I use the mask for elevation training… but i have to say man my shoulders are burnt since switching to Outlaw you guys really move weight… that being said im wondering how you all warm up… i was on double days from crossfit main fallowed by crossfit blacksburg wods, but Outlaw is a different beast all together… thanks again for the response!
About 90 seconds on the airdyne and some ohs w pvc and pass throughs/dislocates. Few warm up sets w/ light weight on the bar for whatever the movement is and there ya go. Should be 5-10mins max. Sounds like you are doing too much.
you might be right… getting ready for Special Forces Selection so its hard not to overdue training and even harder to allow proper rest… thanks man!
As I get older (and wiser), I realize more is not always better.
Sean,
You need to be rucking a ton. Week 1- M-4miles, W-6miles, F-4, S-10. Increase up to no more than 18 miles for your Saturday ruck. This should be two weeks before Selection. Then go back to week one for the last two weeks. You want peak while at Selection. You need to get your feet ready and please know how to climb a rope! And take CL advise!

Sean,
Rob Shaul’s Ruck Based Selection Prep is G2G for this. SFAS doesn’t require CF competitive specificity like double unders and the like. Feet, feet, feet.

Just a quick question. When I do heavy push presses and thrusters, I tend to get up on my toes. Just wondering if this is a no rep or is it “legal”? My friend noticed it and I started wondering.
It’s a legal lift, however I would concentrate on staying back on your heels. You’ll find that you have a whole lot more power sitting back a bit.
