140107

This weekend marked the beginning of a pretty serious PR battle between Outlaw Barbell’s best 85k lifters – Sam “No, I’m Not Lü” Jay, and Logan “Toto” Dobbs.

Logan started the whole thing with a 152kg PR Clean & Jerk, then after seeing Sam’s Snatch of 125kg from the Portland camp, hit this 125kg PR on Sunday night.

On Saturday in Portland, Sam hit this 145kg Clean & Jerk PR, and BARELY missed 150kg right after. Both of them have qualifying meets coming up in the next few weeks. Which means we’re probably gonna need a couple new singlets for the AO.


WOD 141007:

BBG

1) 5X1 Two Position Clean (hang & power position) – heavy but NO MISSES, rest as needed

2) 5X2 Jerk from blocks – heaviest possible, rest as needed

BB Cycling/Midline

1a) 4+1X3 Touch & Go Cleans (full) – three sets to work to a 3rm (see note for explanation of +1), rest 90 sec.

Note: The +1 set is an additional ME UB set @ 75% of the 3rm established in the first four sets. The goal is as many T&G reps as possible – with perfect technique – before dropping the bar.

1b) 4X8 Tempo Ring Dips (3 counts down, 3 count pause at bottom, 3 counts up, 3 count pause at top) – if 8 reps at strict tempo is too easy add weight, rest 2:00

Conditioning

Alternating EMOM for as long as possible (or until 20:00):

Even-
30 Double-Unders
5 Power Snatches 135/95#

Odd-
7 Bar-Facing Burpees
7 Shoulder to Overhead 135/95#

    Cycling
    1a) 200, 210, 220f third, 225, 6@165
    1b) done, broke them all up. Chest fried.

    • Fuck this WOD 2/7 S2OH in minute “4”. Burpees fukt everything.

      Cleans
      185, 205, 215, 225, 235(+10) this felt really good. Power position makes me pull crazy.
      Jerks
      215, 235, 245(-10, terrible form), 185, 185. Was split push pressing. Not jerking. I gotta get my back knee to bend.

  2. 1) 275#, no drops.
    2) 275#, no boxes so I reracked to my shoulders

    1a) 245#
    1b) barely 8 reps with no weight.

    Cond: made it through min 5, tip of the hat to whoever makes it 20 min.

  3. So just want to clarify on BBC…

    Is it 3 establishing sets + 1 ME, or 4 establishing sets + 1 ME?

    “4+1×3” leads me to think its 4 establishing sets. But you then say “3 sets to establish”

    • The “three sets to establish…” is leftover from 5RM.

      We’re taking 4 sets to get a 3RM, then 1 ME set.

    BBG:
    Cleans: 205/215/220/225/230
    Jerks: 185/205/215/225/225 (1RM: 235, so i’m pretty happy about it)

    BB:
    a) 185/195/200/200 +1: 9×155 (tiny heart syndrome kicked in when i caught the bar wrong on the way down
    b) this sucked. haven’t spent time on rings in a while

    M/F/S: 2/7/5

  5. Still working that wedding out of my system I think

    BBG

    2.) 260#, +10

    BBC
    1a.) 245#, missed 3rd at 260#, -15#.
    7 at 185#
    1b.) @ bodyweight. Broke on last set

    Conditioning

    6+31. That was a real punch in the dick

    • I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought that metcon was a nightmare. I dropped the weight down to 95 after three rounds and about pukes at 12 minutes

    Cond
    9 minutes + 4 S2OH
    Was able to go touch & go on the snatches through the first 4 rds which leave me 25-30 sec rest. 5th rd was burnt out and went singles leaving no time for rest. Odd minutes fast on the burpees and UB on S2OH leaving 25-30 seconds rest also.

    Conditioning:
    3 minutes + 1:22 for the 4th… Humbled.

    Tempo dips: done. Broken up. FML.

    Conditioning: 6 + 33
    Used Michael as my proxy and gunned for him. Should have nutted up and got through the snatches, but I was toast. Could definitely tell the cycling has improved, as I did the first 3 rds UB on the Snatch.

  12. BBG
    1) 205, 215, 225, 235, 250 (+5)
    2) Finally got blocks!

    3) deadlift 1 x 3 @ 295

    My DU still needs a great deal of improvement. I stopped on DU at :45 did the 5 snatches (95#), then went into the burpees… shoulders were smoked from dips and didn’t finish the STOH before that minute was up.

    Cond:
    I’m experiencing massive ellbow pain in the snatch when I lockout overhead
