>Oh, ok Paul Estrada, we get it. You’re back from injury, grew your beard out, qualified for Nationals, and now you just wanted to remind everyone that you are Godzilla. Cool.
Paul Estrada – 315# Snatch + 5 Snatch Grip Push Presses:
Paul may be the Outlaw king of the Snatch (please tell me someone else is chuckling), and this is certainly one of the most impressive feats of strength we’ve ever seen here, but… Is it the MOST impressive?
This question, along with the fact that I had to do it anyway for the new site, led me to create the “Outlaw Feats of Strength” channel on our Vimeo account. I thought, since most of them are in the same place, that we should take a little poll on what is the all-time greatest Outlaw feat of strength. You can CLICK HERE to go to the Outlaw Feats of Strength page, and peruse some of the greatest lifts, complexes, and other craziness that we’ve ever posted. Most of the videos are on the page, but I’ll be adding more later. Also, to truly make things fair, you’d have to go to this young lady’s page and look at some of her work as well.
The grand prize for the video that gets the most votes, is absolutely nothing—they all probably already have plenty of our t-shirts and other stuff.
WOD 130705:
Strength
*Recommendations for week three:
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. If last week’s squats were all easy, and you had zero problem with any reps, you may add between 10 & 20# this week. If they became difficult in the last few sets, and you experienced some legitimate soreness, you may add between 5 & 10#. If you could not complete all sets, could not walk because you were so sore, and you cursed my name daily, then do not add weight.

I’m by no means one of those monsters and my beard is somewhat of a joke, but let me just say. I love this programming. I am having so much fun with the squats and am looking forward to every post to see what is the next workout.
Sadly I’m following a week behind, so I’ll have to wait a hole week for this WOD.
I have been thinking about following Outlaw and now I am. I looked back and noticed the smolov cycle started on June 27. I thought maybe that’s where I should start. Any suggestions?
Definitely start there, because before that we just finished a whole testing cycle, so otherwise you’d have to start 6 weeks or so before that when the testing cycle began. Just pick up from the Smolov cycle
I don’t know if it would be a good idea to start from the first week because i believe we are starting the “Hatch” program soon. But I am not 100% sure.
Start with today. There is plenty of squatting to go around.
Whole
I’m totally planning to load up the GT in our garage for those sled drags. No excuses!
@Ryan, Smolov is finishing this week, we are then doing a deload and max retest this next week after which we’re jumping into the hatch squat cycle. Best to jump on for next monday, have a slightly lighter intro week, and be caught up. Just my 2c.
That’s what I would do
Paul makes it look so easy!!Very impressive
are men and women supposed to use the same weight kb for this?
Nope. Updating now.
Rudy, why isn’t your elbow dislocation featured in the Feats of Strength?
oh good God Almighty
Dammit! I was gonna save that for the fail channel, but I think it’s the only one.
OUCH!!
If that cat on ESPN can eat 70 hotdogs in 10 minutes, I can fight through the last two days of Russian madness…. ‘Merica

Paul makes me feel irrelevant.
Paul makes me feel like I want to be a better woman: clean dishes, cook large meals, tell him he has big muscles.

I think you forgot making him sammiches. I’d make him a good sammich.

C) thanks to my good ole friend Zachary writing the WOD on the board using his email (not any more) we proceeded to do this with 16kg bell … first round in, I felt my ego telling me this is too light … Rudy would never have us use this weight but I continued. 10:18 later I go to plug the numbers into my phone and dammit … The weight was wrong. Ego said rest ten and do it again because you couldn’t post to the board having used 16kg with out shaming yourself. Second go 11.50.

It felt like light squats with a press. Recovery from smolov is also feeling alot better. I haven’t added weight but I haven’t been destroyed the days after. Thanks coach I hate this (:

Strength: Smolov @ 245# – felt great. Haven’t been lifting for all that long. Spent this cycle focusing on form and making sure to go ATG. Much more confident than 3 weeks ago, much better in the pocket. Looking forward to testing my 1RM again.
Conditioning: Homegym and not many long flat surfaces, also don’t have a sled yet and I only have a 45# and 60# kettlebell. I tried to get creative and still hit the “spirit” of the workout.
