2/3/4
Hi Coach-
I realize this question doesn’t relate to todays workout but I have to ask. Background: I am 6’5 3/4″ and I am having trouble dialing in my snatch despite having good strength in the overhead squat (I’ve done 245 for doubles, 225 for triples) and snatch balance (did 225 easily recently). My back squat is 405, front squat 325, clean 275, sumo deadlift 500, so I know I have the strength to pull some heavy snatches. Here’s where I am having trouble: At 6’5 3/4″ I have a big wingspan. When I grip the bar as wide as I can, even lifting my pinky fingers and jamming my ring fingers into the bushing, the bar still falls below my pubic bone when I’m standing tall. Because of this I am having a hard time making contact with the bar without either hitting it too low on the thighs and shooting it out away from the body, hitting myself in the pubic bone directly, or bending my arms early in order to pull the bar above my pubic bone and make good hip contact. Do I need a specialty bar or what?
Thanks for doing you.

The only option you have left is to utilize the “arm bend” to get the bar into the correct place in the “power position”. Jon North talks about this in his seminars. It is completely ok to do.. certain elite level lifters do it. It’s going to be all about timing..

Wish I didn’t have to work 24 tomorrow, ready for another day of Outlaw. Really enjoying it, just letting y’all know. Thanks.
Is everyone sticking to the prescribed 60s rest between sets for these 3 position lifts? Only 1 minute rest is killing my wind on these lifts, and I can’t fathom how people are crushing 225+ on these lifts with only 60s rest.
Yep, 60 seconds rest. It’s definitely hard work.
I rest as much as i want, i take it as minimum 60sec rest.
If you take 3-4 minutes in between it is gonna be a LOOOOONG day, and think the 60sec is to avoid that.
this was addressed way back, but the 60s rest (or 30/45/90) is crucial to help build ‘work capacity’. you’re not going to get very many fresh lifts in CF so practicing them fatigued is pretty important. they are basically EMOM style sets minus the time in take to do the lifts. that being said, you can always experiment based on what you want to prioritize, strength or volume (even though rudy would probably say otherwise…)
really need to improve your strength? rest a tad longer so you can go as heavy as possible. need to improve your wind? stick hard to 60s rest, but this will probably mean slightly lighter sets overall. regardless, if you are keeping your working sets around 75-85% you are still getting benefit. but when people complain that outlaw ‘doesn’t do enough cardio’ they are usually missing out on the fact that these prescribed rests are not an afterthought, but an intentionally key aspect of the program. eventually your goal should be able to stick to the rests AND do these lifts heavy, but that takes some time…
That makes sense. Thanks for the responses!
Anyone gonna be at the Level One Seminar at CrossFit Bold in London this weekend? Plan on knocking out some Outlaw after the day’s seminar. Feel free to email me @ pattersongp.usmc@gmail.com

hey coach what do you think about doing the steinborn lift for the ohs 3rm at regionals. i think i might try it. do you think they will have a problem with it thanks.
better hope they have good collars to try that
my guess is that falls under the uncommon movement clause and won’t be allowed. gonna be interesting to see what happens.

Conditioning:
My forearms were killing me today, and my grip strength subsequently suffered. So, I made the decision to sub L-pullups for rope climbs (doubled the amount of reps; 7 climbs = 14 L-pullups). Didn’t want to get 15′ up the rope and have my grip fail me.
