    1) 145, 155, 165, 175, 185
    -all UB t&g
    -my bar stopped spinning halfway through the EMOM, so I’m pretty happy about getting them all. Not to mention all the weird wrist action/catches I was having to make to get them.

    -rested 2 min
    ME @ 155# got 6 reps, should’ve switched bars, but was lazy. It felt light but the bar was all over the place due to the spin being gone.

  5. so, I am new-ish to the outlaw way! I tried it about 4 months ago for 2 months and liked it but still was trying to figure out what workout was going to work best for me (ive tried comp train, ive tried a lifting cycle my husband wrote for me with metcons, done the hour classes at my gym with extra stuff, etc…). after much prayer, trial and error, and searching within, I have finally settled back into the outlaw way. I find that it fulfills everything that I want out of a workout (lifting, metcons, skill, gymnastics, etc). So with that said, I have a few questions in regards to remaining successful and making gains:

    1) on 2 session days, I come in at 530am (before work) and then go in again after work. What do y’all suggest eating/drinking before going in? i don’t do pre-workout. I have been doing a scoop of peanut butter, workout, and then come home and do protein shake with a breakfast casserole. Any other suggestions?

    2) Also, I have started doing competitions now that I feel like I am at a good level of crossfit (ie: i can do any movement rxd). in fact, I have a comp this saturday (Cupids Revenge in greensboro, NC)-its a grid style co-ed team comp. Anyway, on comp weeks, how should I approach the workouts? I have been pretty much going full force this week (minus today I only did the first 3 RFT metcon bc it took me a long time and my body felt tired). I plan on doing light active recovery tomorrow and then friday just taking it easy (I might still do the workout that is posted but go very light and not go hard on metcon portion). please advise.

    Sorry for the long post but i truly appreciate any feedback! I am very excited to be doing outlaw again. The best advice I was given recently was this: whatever workout you choose to do, just STICK WITH IT. do NOT jump around. So, I am going to stick with this!

    • Sticking with a program is a good idea. The Connectivity work that Kaitlin writes has helped me and some of the other people that post here. My go-to pre-workout snack is a banana, a protein bar, and a cup of coffee. I have this about an hour before I start working out.
      On weeks that you have a comp, just follow Outlaw, and then take Friday off. You might want to do the usual Friday plan on Thursday, which is an Outlaw rest day.
      Good luck in your comp.

    • Hey Ashley –
      In regards to your first question, I am not a morning exerciser, so I can’t give you any help here. Do whatever feels good for your body. When I am short on time or in the gym for a long time, I tend to eat baby food because it gets into the system quicker.

      In regards to what to do for competitions – it all comes down to how much you care about the competition v. how much you care about training. I know when I first started competitions, I would want to try the workouts 1-2 times, and figure out a strategy, and think they were the be-all, end-all in my CF life. Then I realized that doing well in these competitions didn’t really matter…I cared more about making it to Regionals than winning Competition X in City X. Therefore, I only typically took it easy on Fridays before them. I still lifted, still did the strength stuff, but skipped the metcon.

      In other news – I am sure that some of you noticed I haven’t been posting since the New Year. Wife and I are expecting, we are also buying a house, and I switched gyms to one that receives programming and coaching from Doug Chapman (think Maddox, Cho, and Foucher). Never had any intentions of abandoning the Way, but being the new guy and wanting to make the team means I had to fall in line. Once the Open, and if we’re lucky, Regionals, I will be back. Wishing the rest of you the best of luck this Open…just not any of you in the Central East (Tyler).

      Row for Cals: 153

  7. I’m sure the answer is obvious but I was curious, progression for shoulder touches? For those of us that don’t have freestanding handstand, facing the wall or facing outwards? In attempted a few after session 1 for kicks and I got one sketchy rep. Didn’t know if the progression would be feet on a box and touching shoulder or on the wall getting hands up as far as possible.

    I feel so worn out, I don’t know about anyone else….today was all mental and I was happy I pushed through today. One thing I think doing this Outlaw stuff is good for really holding yourself accountable and being your own motivator. I don’t know if anyone else does this alone off to the side or at there own place but that’s what I do because I’ve found so much success with Outlaw. I don’t need a class or a group to really get me going, but I think once I’m in a group setting for the Open I will be able to push even harder especially if some hot chick from the box is checking me out.

    • This will be my 3rd open on Outlaw and you are exactly right. I workout In a corner on my own and am usually concerned about where my conditoining is at but once the group setting comes around for the open there is another gear, that plus the fact that we are under a lot of volume right now. You’ll be ready.

    • I’m not near the level of some of the guys following here but my advise would be to simply reduce some volume or take an extra rest day. You’d be better off to do less volume with higher intensity vs just grinding through a bunch of work. If you have a good chance at regionals then the extra volume is needed. I’ve been following for 4 months now and still leave a few things out or take a day off if I feel wrecked. Also, I feel like this is common knowledge too but it never hurts to take a look at your calorie intake.

    Conditioning
    10:28, 10:31 @105#

    Didn’t have time for the other conditioning. Did some chin and toes handstand work.

  25. Session 1: Did some wall balls, double Unders and muscle ups as warm up because I missed yesterday’s conditioning.
    BBG: 1. Snatches: 50-52.5-55-57.5-60kg ( feeling much better)
    2. Me snatches: on 52.5kg: 5 reps
    Cond: 1. 50kg for snatch. Time : 12:20min
    2. 50kg for clean. Time: 13:05min (hands owe and so many box jump overs)
    Session 2:
    1.Clean and jerk: 60-65-67.5-70-72.5kg
    2. Me on 60kg: only 4 reps, hands just owe and traps went into spasium, very owe.
    Cond: this was nice. Didn’t really count. Just focused on moving steady pace.
    Very happy I got everything done today and felt better than the last few days.

  26. M/48//155
    Connectivity: 3 rounds: 3 press HS 1/1 pirouette, hollow hold 20s + 5 vups, arch hold 20s + 5 arch ups, ring complex of support work-strict dips-L hold.

    3 snatches every 90sx5: 130-140-150-160-170. +5 from last week. Feeling really good here.

    ME: 6 at 145. Decent.

    Conditioning:
    1. 9:33. Snatches at 155 were definitely not power snatches, and all 1 at a time. 14 ttb were a cakewalk.
    2. 7:24. 1 at a time on the pc. All C2B butterfly unbroken.
    Previously, those box jump overs would have sucked the life out of me, but today, I could just keep going and going on them and get right into the next round.

    Session 2 tomorrow.

    • M/48/155
      Thursday workout:
      3 clean and jerks every 2 min x5: 155-165-175-185 all tng 195 1+failed attempt at tng + failed attempt from floor -1-1. Better than last week where I ended at 185.

      ME: 5 @ 157 better than last week.

      Instead of doing the 30min conditioning set, I did the Friday strength work:
      Pause front squat + jerk
