>After multiple discussions with Coach Pendlay about what he thinks is the biggest weakness with CrossFitters, and novice lifters in general, I have decided to focus the first 16 weeks of our off-season template on the single most important movement in all of strength training…the Squat. We will start with the 4 week Junior version of the world’s most feared Squat program, Smolov. Then, after a week to de-load and re-test, we’ll move on to an old Outlaw favorite, the Hatch Program.

While discussing this topic with Coach, and Travis Cooper (currently the number one ranked lifter in America), and seeing Travis both Squat 245kg (539#) for five reps last week, and PR his total at 350kg on Friday, I am convinced that adding strength to the Squat is the best way to add to all lifting numbers. This is especially true when considering most of our athletes have lifting numbers that are completely out of proportion when compared to their relatively low Squat numbers. The fact that we have almost no 450/275# plus squatters (in fact, we don’t have many above 400/250#—especially with the high bar), but have multiple athletes with 330/220# plus Clean & Jerks, is something that Travis called “really weird”. Even Spencer “The Machinist” Arnold, at a rail thin 155# BW, has pushed his Squat to almost three times bodyweight, and his lifts have risen almost every time his Squat has.

Our sport is one that rewards gains in overall strength with gains in overall capacity. The Squat is the most basic and useful tool for strength development. If you disagree with this notion, or think that there is a “too strong”, first watch this—which was a full year ago, then click here and see what kind of capacity squatting strength can give you.

There will be some tweaks to the template to fit the overall volume of the programs, but the majority of the daily work will remain the same. For the Smolov Jr. portion of the cycle (the first three weeks), our Weightlifting (BBG) volume will be paired back slightly. For the entire cycle (16 weeks), our conditioning pieces will show the most overall change, as they will focus more on gymnastics, calisthenics, and general aerobic capacity work.

Side note: No, you should not try to eat 14,000 calories a day, and “get big” before the next competition season. Let your body tell you when to add more fuel, if you need to at all.

>This weekend I had the pleasure of taking some of the kids from Team Outlaw down south to train with Team MDUSA. While we were there we had the opportunity to bring everyone in and record an episode for Coach’s podcast. It’s long, but gives you guys the opportunity to get to know the Team a little better, and get a lot of insight into our prep for the Games.

15 rounds for total calories of:

30 seconds ME Airdyne or Row for Calories
90 seconds Active Recovery (AD or Row) @ 55-65% RPE

*Notes: Airdyne is the preference. During each 90 second recovery interval try to record the exact same caloric total, but make sure you allow for a true max effort interval after. Yes, this is a 30 minute piece.

  3. 1) this looks awesome

    2) what are some of you guys doing for warm ups? I’m finding myself doing less and less general warm up stuff and just jumping into my first movement with an unweighted bar.

  4. Heads up for anyone having issues with the Smolov Calculator. The numbers weren’t populating with firefox, I had to switch to internet explorer.

  6. I don’t have a rower or an airdyne. Any suggestions on how to sub? Maybe sumo high pull?

  7. Should I use my most recent 1RM for HBBS even if it is 25# less than my PR? My PR was a couple months ago but last week in testing I didn’t reach it. Thanks for your advice.

    • You use your current 1RM, not all time PR for obvious reasons. The percentages are based on what you currently do. Very few lifters in the course of their career don’t have an injury or setback that causes their lifts to go down. For example, my squat went down a whopping 40# since the last squat cycle due to some minor injuries. I would not survive this cycle if I tried to use my PR from 4 months ago.

  8. This is excellent news.
    I started the full version of Smolov for my FS on April 15th and finished the base meso-cycle on May 25th with a 25# PR~300#.
    As my numbers were/are very skewed towards the S(240#) and C&J(275#) and the fact that my FS PR had become my C&J PR I decided I needed to put more emphasis on the FS.
    I did this by shoehorning Smolov in instead of OW prescribed squat work.
    While it obviously did the job of increasing my FS, I did not know how to adjust the rest of the volume accordingly and as such my fatigue levels started to max out and weightlifting work towards the end started to feel very taxing at just 80%.
    Long story short I am psyched that Rudy is melding this into his programming. After listening to Pendlay say that it is very abnormal for a lifters Snatch to be above 70% of his squat and mine being at 76% ~ 240#S vs 315#BS ~ I knew something had to change.
    All I can say is get ready for mobility and recovery.
    As always thanks for the programming Rudy.

  12. Hell yea!
    Really excited for this cycle because I grew up lifting at spectrum fitness center training speed and strength with Coach Hatch!
    His squat programs were always nasty!!!
    Glad to know others around the Crossfit world know who he is because most I speak to do not.
    Btw just want to say thanks to Rudy for all the programming etc. Been fallowing for about 6 months all together now and the gains are amazing!
    Looking forward to this cycle!!!!

  13. Coach, is 2.5 the increment you want us to go with on Smolov? Just making sure

      • Guys, it really doesn’t matter. If you have the incremental plates to be accurate, be accurate. If not, you’re not going to ruin the cycle if you have to put 1.365566666# too much or too little on the bar.

        • No no no, it automatically rounds to the nearest 2.5 lbs. But you have to put in your increments for how much to go up each week. “When you add the 10-20 pounds onto your percentage, it’s just the same weight you used last week plus 10-20 pounds.” and “Do not add 15-25 pounds onto your lift in addition to the 10-20 from week 2. Instead add on extra weight to get a total of 15-25 pounds.” So its automatically set to add 2.5 each week but you can type in a different number and and increase more each week. http://www.seriouspowerlifting.com/2362/articles/smolov-jr

  15. So I read up a little on the Smolov Jr and for Week 2 & 3, the template is exactly the same except you are supposed to add 10-20#’s to your Week 1 numbers for Week 2, and you add 15-25#’s to your Week 1 numbers for Week 3.

    That’s how that increment field works. If you put in 10#’s then it will add 10#’s to all your Week 1 numbers for Week 2 and then subsequently add 20#’s to your Week 1 numbers for Week 3.

    Maybe I’m wrong but to do what Smolov Jr is prescribing, we should be using an increment of around 10-12#’s…..Coach can probably chime in here.

  16. Awesome! I pushed my hbbs to 2x bw this last cycle using a Starr linear progression, that strength translated into PRs across the board. Can’t wait to try Smolov and squat, and squat some more!!

  22. BBG) 110kg felt really smooth

    Strength) 122.5kg will up the increment another 2.5kg

    Cond) used a spin bike and set the tension tight enough that I had to lift my bum off the seat to peddle fast enough. Couldn’t record calories tho but I thought it would still be better than rowing.

    Really excited about starting his cycle

  24. Squatting makes you better at other lifts? GTFO! What’s next? Making contact with the bar on snatch/clean? This gives me the lawlz.

    • Cont:
      3) total Cal: 393 (6670m rowed)

  27. Have a quick question for the coach. Injured my ankle Saturday evening playing soccer. I hope I can jump in next Monday, till then I’m just doing some upper body stuff to stay moving.

    Should I just jump in with the actual week two program or start at the beginning of the cycle one week behind?

  28. Very glad that outlaw also makes same conclusion I did on January. Since then put lot of energy to squats and it really works. All my other lifts have come up but legs are so much stronger now and it helps from Jackie to all the way to clean. I guarantee from my experience that all that hard work with squats makes you bette in crossfit.

  29. 1. Up to 225, no misses. A little wrecked from Amanda at 185 yesterday.

    2. Off 405 – 285. Easy (ish)

    Conditioning – 355 cals on the rower. My ass went numb.

  48. Had to airdyne first
    Right at 300 cals
    10-12 cals per work set. Realized after the 1:30 min sets were too low on effort
    This was awful

  49. 1) 175/175/175/185/185/185/185

    2) 270#
    Row- averaged 13 Cals per work set

    MFS 1/2/2

  61. Worked up to 145# on the snatches. On the road again, found myself at a location with extremely limited space. May sound silly, but I feel like the limited space made my snatch form better because I really focused on just going straight up and down.

    HBBS@210#. Ouch.

    No place to do the conditioning.

  62. 1) snatches: still lacking here big time.
    115-135-155-175-175-175-175

    2) Squats done at 325, no fails

    3) 435 Calories (7018m)

    Excited to get the new cycle Rollin’!

  63. Sn/spp 135,155,175,185,185,185,185
    These make my shoulders hurt! It ranks up there with getting punched in the dick! Advice?

    Squat 317.5

    Did conditioning my devil’s tricycle monitor doesn’t work

  64. 1) 200# x7
    2) 275#
    3) I only had time for 8 rounds – 230 cal

    This is my first cycle on Outlaw, it’s awesome to see that some of you guys with similar squat numbers are snatching 20-30#’s more than me. Can’t wait to see how the higher volume of weightlifting will translate to my #’s.

  66. 1: 75 – 77,5 – 80 – 82,5 – 85 (all time snatch PR!) – 87,5F – 87,5F

    2: 108,5kg

    B1. 108kg
    C1. 598cal. This is a new Airdyne and I think it counts high on cals.

  76. 1) snatch/push press. Worked up to 165
    2) HBBS @ 270
    3) Airdyne 409 cal total (165 bw). Felt good to get off the bike

  79. 1)BBG: still working on tech. so i did hang squat snatch – 83lbs
    2)HBBS: 110lbs

  80. Snatch work 85-95-105-105-110-110-115
    Push press were very easy. Snatch was limiting factor. Max is 125.
    Squat 6×6 @160
    These were tough and back was already pretty tight from morning airdyne conditioning

  83. 1) Worked up to 135#.
    2) 6×6 @ 205.. Easier than expected.
    3) Done on Airdyne, the screen doesn’t work but stuck to the 20 seconds ME, 90 Seconds Active Recovery

  84. ive been having pretty painful hip strains lately and i have no clue how long i should rest for. i havent been doing any squatting or rowing or anything that brings my knee past my waist or anything that associates with external rotation or internal rotation because it literally feels like im being stabbed in the hip, so ive been working upperbody and some power snatches and power cleans. so im going to the doctors this week to get my hips checked out. anyone have any suggestions of what it actually could be and how long i should rest them?

    • I am having this same problem and was wondering if I should go to the doc! Hip flexors are killllllin me. Interested to see if anyone answers this as well.

      • When I was doing straight oly training I had this same problem. As soon as I would start to squat my hip felt like it was going to break and catch on fire. I rested it for a straight month and it finally felt better but 2 sessions back in of squatting and it felt worse than before. I went to the ortho and had it checked and got a contrast MRI. Nothin was wrong with it. He had no answers for me. It turned out mine was actually caused by lower back issues. I went to the chiropractor and after 2 adjustments I could squat pain free. This may not be your issue but I thought I would offer it as a suggestion if you haven’t visited a chiro yet.

  86. 1. 115#/115#/115#/125#/125#/135#/135# – missed 1 @ 135#
    2. 6×6 @185#
    3. Rowed: Total Calories: 341

  88. I don’t normally post but I’m making a point to start posting everyday with this new cycle.

    Snatch worked up to 175- felt really crappy in the hole, overall more work is still needed on my snatch

    HBBS- off 415, did all 6 sets at 290 felt pretty good

    Conditioning- no air-dyne so rowed, about 12-13 calories per sprint interval

  90. So excited for this next cycle. The volume (especially with conditioning) from the open through regionals was starting to wear me out. But, the gains are spectacular.

    PR’d my HBBS this week by 20lbs at 325.
    PR’d my Snatch by 10lbs at 205
    PR’d my Clean by 5lbs at 250
    Did the 150 burpees in 9:04 (never done this before but I was pleasantly surprised at the result)
    PR’d my Deadlift by 30lbs at 425

    This. Shit. Works.

  91. I’m sure if I had paid more attention in the past I would know the answer to this question because I think somebody asked it once…Should I ramp the 7×1 or stick with a fixed weight? I usually just go with how I’m felling. What’s RX just for clarification sake?

    1) 200
    2) 255
    3) Wow hated that.

    • From what I see you are hitting your thigh with the bar which is causing it to stay out front, this is causing you not to get full hip extension. At the bottom you lost your core, with heavier weight you will drop this lift in front of you every time. Work on getting triple extension and slowing down your first pull.

      • Derek, at the bottom where he “lost his core”, is this what caused him to rock back? Because this happens to myself also. I also think it has something to do with losing your lower lumbar curve (you can see Troy lose his at the very bottom) and the hips rotating posteriorly which changes your center of gravity. if you watch, he rocks right when his pelvis dips under him. I’m no expert, just a thought from someone with the same problem. Thoughts?

    • You should work on the first pull. More specifically keeping your torso vertical and your hips down. Right now your hips are shooting up at a much higher rate than your torso and this is putting you in a poor position at the start of the second pull and sapping a lot of the power you would have derived from your legs.
      From the looks of it you are nearly horizontal at the end of the first pull. Go watch some of Spencer’s vimeo’s, specifically his last meet, he discusses this relationship in detial.

  115. 1) 50/60/70/75x/75/80x/80k – back was worrying me.

    3. Sucked
    I did this weird thing called ‘running’ yesterday. Did not help my squats, it sucked way worse than I thought it would.

  169. Snatches at 145-185…maybe could of gone heavier, but first time doing a push press from the back(and first time with snatch grip) and need to grease the groove if you will.
    Squats at 245 felt amazing. Been working on mobility to fix being duck footed and it seems to be paying off. Think that combined this squat programming will have huge increases for me. Looking forward to this.
    The Airdyne at Albany Crossfit is now saturated with a decent bit of my ass sweat. That was terrible.

    Dumbbell squats – 3 sets of 10 with 40 lb DBs. Killed my shoulders more than anything.

    Conditioning- on the stationary bike, I guess that’s equiv to an airdyne??
    280 calories. And, that was about as much fun as it sounds on paper.

  211. Smolov Jr was wooingly calling my name from across the way. Seemed like a good a time as any to jump back in the fray.

    I am a sweaty mess.

  217. So glad to be back!

    After Carpal Tunnel Release surgery this is my first Outlaw Wod since March.

    Im rehabing a little and taking it easy.

    BBG: kept with 95 on all sets. Very easy but recovering.
    STR: 220 on Squats.
    CON: 342 on the rower.

    Conditioning is down. Strength is down and Skill is way down.

    I am hoping to follow the WODs (scaling as necessary) and add in some lower arm work. My grip and wrists are sooooo weak!

    My all time best is a 175 Snatch and 225 C & J. Tons of room for improvement!

    I like the Outlaw Way for the focus on Olympic Lifting and the mentality.

    So happy to be back!

    Thank you for reading!
