Simply put, this is the single biggest Snatch we have ever seen from a non-Weightlifter (as their first sport), who is actively competing in the sport of fitness.

Congrats, Paul.

And before anyone says anything… No, it’s nowhere near perfect, he has quite a bit left in the tank.

WOD 130225:

BBG

1) 7X2 First Pull + Hang Snatch – heaviest possible, rest 60 sec.

Notes: This movement should be performed with a pull to the knees—First Pull, a 3 second pause at the knees, then a Snatch from the hang position (at the knees).

2a) 3X5 Hang Snatch Pulls – heavy (use straps), rest 60 sec.
2b) 3X3 Snatch Grip Push Press + OHS – heavier than last week, rest 60 sec.

Skill/Midline

1a) 3XME TTB – rest 60 sec.
1b) 3XME “Nose & Toes” Handstand Holds – rest 60 sec.

Notes: This is a chest-facing-wall handstand performed with ONLY the nose and toes of the athlete in contact with the wall. A common fault with this movement is placing the hands too far from the wall. Make sure they are no further than 5″ from the wall.

Conditioning

3 rounds for total working time of:

Run 400m
25 Wall Balls 20/14#

*Rest 1 minute after the first round, and rest 2 minutes after the second round.

Notes: Each round should be an all-out effort. Do not pace runs to make Wall Balls easier.

  1. Nice frog leap! This is insanely impressive. I can’t believe how far Crossfit and its athletes has come since the first games in 2007. Props.

  2. Awesome lift, dude. Who cares if its not perfect…how much he weighs..etc. He just snatched 315…in a fuckin parkin lot! Insane where the sport is going. Here is just one example of that fact (non “weightlifter” throwing some serious weight overhead). Again, great job.

  3. I have a spot for the Outlaw training camp next Wednesday night to Friday in Long Island City that I can sell at cost. Seriously bummed to have to miss this… but I’d love for someone else to take advantage. Email me at mikeviola at gmail.com

  4. If anyone is interested in buying my spot for the Outlaw Camp this weekend in Dallas please let me know (eakelp@gmail.com). I got injured so can’t really participate.

  9. So my training partner and iI had a diaagreement this morning. On that snatch pull, hang snatch… It says 7×2. Does that mean do the complex twice for 7 sets or is the pull counted as one rep an the snatch counted as the second?

    Thanks in advance for any help

    • How did you two do the snatch grip pp and ohs? It is written the same. One cycle of the complex is one rep. So one snatch pull then snatch then one snatch pull then one snatch is 2 reps of the cycle= 7×2.

      • That’s what I thought, so that’s how I did it. He did it the other way (the pull and the snatch counting as 2 separate reps).

        I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t mistaken, but it turns out that I was right.

        Thanks for the input

    Felt great today even though i slept like shit last night.

    2/3/5 – shoulder is a bit itchy…

  11. Has anyone figured out a good way to log all this crap so that you don’t have to spend 30 minutes a day going back through notes to figure out percentages and previous weights attempted?

  12. @admin or mod….
    I’m signed up for the training camp in Long Island the 6-8th, in the description of the days it lists sunday-tuesday….but the dates are wednesday through friday. I’m hoping the dates 6-8th are correct and the days were just mislabeled. Any clarification/confirmation would be much appreciated.

    • Dan, good catch, I’ll check it this afternoon, but the dates listed, not the days are correct. 6th-8th are the dates. We’ll send an email to you guys to confirm.
