>For those of you who will be at Regionals this weekend, we will have coaches at every American Regional. Regions where we have more athletes will have two—Daniel Tyminski and Paul Castaneda will be in the North West, me and Michael Winchester will be in the North Central—and Spencer Arnold will be all by himself in South West (yes, we’ve assigned coaches according to beard level). Come say hi to any of us, or make fun of Dan’s capris (and Spencer’s “beard”). We’re there to be support for our Team Outlaw athletes, but would love to help anyone we don’t know yet, who has been following along with the site. Everyone at “outlaw industries” is pretty excited to get this weekend started.
WOD 130531:
Strength
1a) 7X3 Banded Deadlifts @ 60% Bar Weight + 25% Band Tension – rest exactly 60 seconds.
*Notes: The bar should be loaded with 60% of the 1RM Deadlift. Band tension should equal 25% of 1RM at the top of the lift. Judging band weight and setup is explained in this DEMO VIDEO
1b) 7X2 Bench Press – heavier than last week, rest exactly 90 seconds.
Notes: Work up to a nearly maximal load by the 4th or 5th set. Try to increase from last week, and maintain over the remainder of the sets. All reps must be performed with the hips (ass) in contact with the bench.
Skill
15 minutes alternating 2-3 Strict Muscle-Ups and Max Free-Standing Handstand Holds (non-walking).
*Notes: If you do not have Strict MU, spend the time practicing a banded version, but make them as slow and controlled as possible. If you cannot hold a handstand, spend the time practicing position with nose and toes against a wall.
Conditioning (2 parts)
Part 1-
10 minute AMRAP of:
5 Heaving Snatch Balances @ 80%
10 Pullups
15 Wall Balls 20/14#
*Notes: Part 2 should be done separately if time allows. Also, if you are able, the preference is for it to be performed on a track to allow for exact measurement.
Part 2-
4X400m Run – rest 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, all efforts should be at 100%

Hey Chris, email spencer@outlawway2.wpengine.com so you can hook up.
+1
Rudy I raced you in your rental Cadi cts, add me to your list for the North Central.
This is probably a stupid question, but are Heaving Snatch Balances done off a rack for the conditioning?
Nope
Need a good gym in Salt Lake City. Anyone know a gym that will be open during Regionals that will let me come sling some weight around?
We’d love to have you at CrossFit 801. Open all day tomorrow and then only in the morning on Saturday. Not sure if any of those times work for you, but you’re definitely welcome. When do you get in town?
I’ll shoot you an email as well.
Thanks! I get in today in about 2 hours. Would love to get to lift any of the days you are open. Obviously I will be coaching so it will need to be after that. I’ll be looking for your email.
EA, where’s the poster of yourself to stand in front of whilst giving yr interview, a la Glen?!
“Daniel Tyminski and Paul Castaneda will be in the North West”,
Any way to link up with either of these Coaches at the NW Regional? Will they have an OUTLAW headband on or something?
Any update on the availability of the “Everything is Everything” shirts posted a few weeks ago?
They’ve been ordered, I don’t know exactly when they’ll be in stock.
Hey Chris what’s your email?
chrisstowe311 at gmail dot com
had to work out today- doing a competition on Sat.
1) 240 + Blue band
b) 135 x7
only did runs, have a competition on Sat
1:29, 1:20, 1:22, 1:28
What are everyone’s thoughts on grip for MU’s? I don’t think I can do strict MU’s without a false grip but I don’t utilize the false with a kip. The two movements are very different for most so should I be working up to a strict “no false” MU?
I get so confused about rest… is it work:rest or rest:work?
So, for this on the first one, when I run that 400 in 1 minute, do I rest for 3 min, then 2 min, then 1 min, or 20 sec, then 30 sec, then 60 sec?
Work:rest

Not related to today’s work.
I seem to remember reading awhile back, that sometime in the near future Outlaw will have an Olympic lifting only program for those of us that are not as interested in CrossFit? Anyone else remember this?
It’s a strength and conditioning program rolling out, not strictly weight lifting.
Shhhh…
