The sense of somehow being “hard-core” because your gym allows you to drop barbells and take your shirt off, is a fairly lulz-worthy phenomenon. Especially if the home of your bar dropping is an 8,000 square foot, air-conditioned, hot and cold running water having, palace of elite exercising. In an effort to truly introduce some of you to “hard-core” underground training, we have already begun negotiations with the facility we will use for next year’s Chicago Training Camp. It’s a place called “The Pit“, and here is a brief description from one of the “owners”, Billy Shand:

We’ve been wanting to take it to the next level for ultra training for a while. Mike found this weird corridor in a building his company was demolishing that led to the abandoned subway tunnel and we started spelunking down there. We found a coal depository that still had a working outlet off one of the platforms about 1000 meters from the entrance we use. We put a $20 bill near the cutout and checked on it for a month (to see if folks were coming through). No one took it, so we started bringing equipment down there. 15 trips later we have a killer spot. There’s actually a wrought iron gate that we were able to pry loose with a crowbar and now our shit is locked up as we brought a chain (that we use for weighted push ups) and padlock. It’s unique for sure, but you have to be in the mindset that you’re going to get dirty and it’s going to be really hard.

Oh, your bathroom is dirty? These guys take a dump in a bucket.


Kevin Simons did 21 Push Jerks @ 225# in the first minute of Tuesday’s conditioning. TWENTY-ONE. He hasn’t had a barbell overhead since the Games.


WOD 120831:

BB Gymnastics

1) 7X1 1 Hang Power Snatch + 1 Power Snatch + 2 OHS as fast as possible – heaviest possible, rest 60 sec (exactly).

Notes: This should be performed as a complex. Do not drop the bar between movements. The OHS should be down and up for both reps without hesitation. Do not reset the feet after the Power Snatch. Perform the OHS with the feet in the exact position that you catch the Power Snatch. This is meant to penalize wide landings.

2) 7X1 1 Hang Power Clean + 1 Power Clean + 2 Push Jerks – heaviest possible, rest 60 sec (exactly).

Notes: These should be UB reps, if you cannot perform them UB then lower the load.

Conditioning

5 rounds for total reps:

1 min AMRAP of:

5 Over the Box Jumps (down) 30/24″
10 KBS 32/24kg
5 Over the Box Jumps (back) 30/24″
5 Thrusters 135/95#

*Rest 1 minute after each round.

Notes: Over the Box Jumps should be performed with 5 boxes lined up in succession. Place the kettlebell on one end of the boxes, and the barbell on the other end.

Midline

1a) 3X10 “Strict” Weighted GH Raise – heaviest possible, rest 60 sec. (no swing, start from a position parallel to the floor) DEMO VIDEO
1b) 3XME Hanging L-Hold – rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO (lulz, point your toes)

  1. Am I the only one that thinks going to an underground abandoned tunnel to workout is ridiculous? I feel like this would be possible material for yesterday’s post…

    • The egos of crossfit gym owners is absurd. Almost any gym owner would never let you do someone else’s programming in their presence, even if they’re amateur pussies. When I go on vacation, or travel, 90% of the time i have to do whatever shit some weak retard posts on their WOD blog because they’re too proud to admit that their programming is for fat women. An underground gym doesn’t seem to out of place when dealing with crossfit morons.

      • +1+1 Ryan

        Gym owner egos are something I have to deal with on a regular basis as well. I am now the Box’s PNG because I do Outlaw. Out of respect for my Box owner’s leniency I don’t go around touting the fact that I’m doing Outlaw. I never mention what programming I’m on to other members. However, when other gym members come up to me and ask me about my ridiculous BBG Complex or insane Over the Box Burpee squat clean timed interval WOD, I can’t exactly lie to them and say I’m on the Owner’s programming.

        (Although he does have good programming, hes not going out of his way to design preiodized conjugate method programming because hes 1. Still focused on programming for his general population, 2. not interested in/dosen’t have the time to focus on creating 2hr workouts for 3 elite members of his gym. 3. Still focused on expanding GPP.)

        The annoying part is any time I get warm or start my mobility, my gym’s owner takes the time to criticize anything I just did from Rudy’s blog. He talked shit about the recent chipper Rudy posted, and the extreme complexity of all the motions and necessary equipment for this type of training.

        I’m in an interesting ethical position here, because I really want to do the programming that I trust and feel is working best for me. (I’m already making serious gains on Rudy’s programming in the month I’ve been following The Way.) However I am directly stepping on the toes of our gym’s owner in the process. Although I really care about my Box as a community and will continue to proudly represent my box at every competition I enter, I still don’t think that is enough to satisfy my owner and the other trainers who blindly parrot his programming’s superiority. My girlfriend (who until now has trained with me) felt it was best for her and another top female athlete in our gym to switch off of Outlaw to alleviate the pressure coming from the owner.

        Currently I’m simply shifting my training to hours when classes are not in the gym, but at least a few times a week I need to dodge the group WOD for a few minutes. If anyone else has stories of this nature or ways they’ve solved this issue I would like to hear what you have to say.

      • Can someone rant about calling yourself “elite”? Its kinda like trying to give yourself a nickname – its got to come from someone else.

    • I think its awesome. My first gym was in the basement of a slaughter house of a meat packing plant. I had to pee in the sink so taking a dump in a bucket isn’t out of reach.

    • Doesn’t happen often, but I want to play in this rant game too!

      This post coming from a man who doesn’t like getting sand on his feet at the beach and uses his son’s baby wipes because his own ass is “sensitive”. Do they provide those in “The Pit”. No? I didn’t think so… so give me a break with your hard core, HTFU BS.

      I like my 5,000+ sq. ft gym with AC. It allows me to find a corner somewere away from soccer mom’s, kids obsessively carrying foam rollers, and Noobs with no concept that what goes up must come down (not always 100% within my control) and kick my own ass there. It also means, said ass kicking can take place on any given weekend for as many hours as I choose without worrying about heat exhaustion. And as an added bonus I can take a shower there and then go to my “real job”, be a productive member of society, and make the $ which initially funded my addictive “not so hard core” behavior.

      Would I snatch more or have a faster Fran time in a dungeon covered in asbestos? Doubtful but maybe… Would I be a more commited exerciser there? No… Would I be trying so hard to be amongst the elite of the hard core that I resemble the asshole wearing a weight vest and a gas mask so he can go as slow as he wants and still one up everyone? Yep!

      “There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: the fashionable non-conformist.”

      • Not to mention you put a saddle on that podium and rode that bitch the entire weekend at your first ever trip to the games……

      • These guys aren’t poseurs.  They’re pretty damned good runners.  And they’re just trying to get their training done.  They’ve found a FREE (I assume) place in the city to set up their gym.  It’s not like the landlord of a three-flat would let you drop weight in your apartment.
         
        Space is precious in urban environments, and they’re not bothering anybody.  Besides, having just left an affiliate for the joys of a basement gym (and correspondingly beginning to follow the Way), I can say that there’s something more fun and more interesting about doing your own thing sometimes.  And if determining their own programming, or having more flexibility to get their workouts done, or whatever “neat-o” factor they give to their environment in the pit of despair, gets those guys a little stronger and a little faster, more power to them.

        If you like a/c and showers, good– use them. Not everybody will thrive in your environment. But don’t assume these guys are just acting like goofballs because it’s different. There can be benefits too.

      • Relax Beery, 3rd in the world can say whatever the hell she wants, this is still a free country afterall….(we are in America)

      • if you knew how delicious that ass was you’d enjoy kissing it too and not Rudy’s manly and very firm ass. By the way, nice name “WodGuy”. Shut your mouth!

      • E, if I had to guess you wear tall socks, have LifeAsRx tattoos, and probably didnt even make it your thrusters today, if you even did the workout.

      • WodGuy, I am amazed! Spot on description. But you left out the part where I’d like to wear Talayna’s skin as a shirt…….now why don’t you go practice your hspu’s you midget

      • Thanks for being a voice of reason on this topic today.

        First I can’t believe he called them owners. Just because you haul your shit into a place, it does not make you the owner of the property.

        Second we should not encourage this kind of stupidity. These guys are going to get sick, and they are going to have lung problems. These clowns are the equivalent of Jackass crossfit. Next step is some idiot deciding it would be really hardcore to setup a crossfit gym in a nuclear waste dump because no one is using it.

        Third taking a dump in a bucket, yeah that’s awesome. Fuck years of bettering our lives with things like indoor plumbing.

        Fourth yeah let’s do something that has potential to go wrong wear we could break a leg or crack our head open in an area thats really dificult to get to, Fuck it I don’t give a shit about EMS or who is going to have to pay to dig my ass out of the Pit.

  2. #firstworldproblems. There’s a reason people leave crappy environments for nicer ones. Because. They. Suck. The only way I’d appreciate this gym is if they REFUSE to call the paramedics if/when somebody splits their dome open deep “underground.”

  3. I love reading these comments, they actually remind me of that old Chester and Spike Cartoon…..Rudy=Spike….and well, you guys can figure it out I’m sure…..

    Rudy, a question about how you design the conditioning. Do you have a specific # reps in mind when you design the AMRAPs? The reason I ask is because I am tall, really tall, 6’9″ tall. So, I’ve got this long-ass ROM to deal with. When doing AMRAPs I can either do the prescribed weights and do fewer reps or drop the weight a little and up the reps. I’ve been messing around with both, with differing outcomes.

    I’m sure Drywall is going to tell me to just HTFU and go balls out, but I thought it was worth asking.

    Used 115# for thruster, other than that Rx , I had a problem, in that i grabbed the barbell and just picked it up instead of squat cleaning, then doing a thruster. I need to think these things through, start with a good plan then do it. Otherwise my form suffers and I end up slowing down. The mental side of things is as tough as the physical some days.

    IF anyone has any tips for my push jerk or any thing overhead can you please tell me!!! I need help Thanks!!!!

    • Something I picked up from Average Broz: hold the bar overhead for a full 3 seconds after every jerk or push press. Builds that lockout strength and seems to help stabilization quite a bit.

      • Thanks dude! I shall try this. Btw, give me ur pressing power and I’ll give u some cookies…with sprinkles.

  54. Really long week – no matter how much I tried to warm-up the snatches they all felt like sh&t.
    Did the complex up to 64 kg (141 lbs), then rested a bit & did 3 pos Power Snatch (High hang, knee, floor) EMOM @ 40, 45, 50, 55 for 3 mins each, but it still felt terrible.
