Well, we did it. We got the store up and running for pre-orders, and it’s working well. Not everything is up (sweatpants, women’s shorts, tights), but a majority of the inventory is up and ready to order. Here you go…

Today’s conditioning is the Burpee capacity test that we developed to gauge aerobic capacity at out training camps. It has been far more effective than we imagined, and we have decided to use it here to test on a much larger scale. Tomorrow there will be a form posted for you all to fill out with your results. It is INCREDIBLY important that you get accurate data, and fill out that form with it. We will be using it to both direct the program into the upcoming season, and for some larger scale research. Even if you do not normally post results, we need you to fill out the form. Also, if you train with others who don’t normally come to the site, please tell them to take the time to fill out the form as well.

Love you,

Dad

P.S. – Even though I explained the test in great detail, please post any questions you have to comments.

Burpee Capacity Test-

4 rounds of:

2:00 Burpees with HR @ or below 155BPM – DO NOT exceed 155BPM.

*Rest :30 between each round. Use this time to write down HR & amount of Burpees performed each round. To gauge HR during rest intervals, find your pulse immediately when the rest period begins. Then count from :10-:15 (5 seconds). Write down this number, and the amount of Burpees completed each round. FYI – 12 beats in :05 = 144BPM – 13 beats in :05 = 156BPM. Anything above 13 and you should slow your pace. Anything below 12 and you should speed up your pace.

Before you begin, do a 1:00 test/warmup – there is no set rest after the 1:00 test warmup. Also, note HR 1:00 AFTER finishing the test.

    • Erik, honestly it depends on your goals and current physical capacity. But my understanding of this phase was to increase some upper body hypertrophy so of you can’t get more that 6-8 strict chest to bar for each set I would kip. As far as hypertrophy is concerned I’ve noticed butterfly pull ups do not allow for enough time under tension and I’ll actually atrophy if I neglect kipping and strict pull ups.

  1. Morenimportant than burpees, is the short sleeve shirt dri-fit? A Nike Legend shirt? Thanks

    Power snatch: 145, 155, 165(2), 165f felt like crap
    Power C&J: 165, 185, 205, 215(2.5, idk what I did on that jerk)

    “Accessory/Skill”
    1a) 215 across
    1b) 15, 8, 10, 6 – pretty sure 15 I’d a 3 rep PR. If my hands didn’t feel like crap it may have been even better.

    • Wife’s numbers:

      Power Snatch: 85, 95, 100f, 100(2)
      Power C&J: 105, 115, 125(1), 125

      Pulls: 125 across
      Pullups (No C2B): 1, 4, 4, 3

  4. Hello,

    Saw the note about how you wanted everyone to post. I wish I had the time to follow the full version of this but unfortunately with work and family I can only make it through the Outlaw Crossfit programming. Thank you to you and your coaches for always posting that as well.

    So due to the above wasn’t sure if you would need my data but figured I would offer it anyways. I am not sure where the form is but will try back later as well.

    Burpee Capacity Test: I am, quite frankly, alarmed at how few burpees I could do while keeping my HR under 155 BPM. Test results are using a Polar 2 HRM. I stopped if my heart rate got over 155, continued burpees when back under 155.
