  1. By Deload week do you mean a complete rest week?

    Thanks, KL

  2. Snatch – done

    Conditioning – 3 rounds even, clock went of sometime during last run. Front squats felt WAY heavier than normal for some reason.

    • Same here on those front squats. No clue why they were so difficult

      Snatch – done

      Conditioning – 3 rounds

  3. First time post, been following the programming for a few weeks though.

    Snatch: 95,95,95,125,125,125,125
    AMRAP: 2 rounds @ 135#

    Kept it light and didn’t go full bore on the AMRAP as I’m still recovering from last week. My entire lower body decided to completely fall apart of me early last week and I’m taking it easy for another day or so to make sure everything is ok. One question I do have: during heavy lifting, is it normal for your outer toes to fall asleep? This has been happening for awhile now when I lift heavy wearing my Risto Olympic shoes. I haven’t tried lifting heavy with my Vibrams to see if they still fall asleep, but I was fine today with the lighter snatches and AMRAP.

  4. just doing conditioning for now. gotta work on mobility for better form and technique. kelly starrett!!!

    conditioning: 1 rnd +7 c&j + 10 front squats
    damn man, my legs need to get stronger, once im done with my mobility project ill be good. 17 BW 165

  5. Worked up to 175
    *felt smooth technique is improving drastically

    Cond-
    4 rounds (finished the last 200m run at 12:04)

  6. BBG 7X1 all at 165 (based of 205)
    Conditioning 3 + 4 FS
    could have gone faster, did the last 11 reps in 45 seconds

  7. 1) 205….. A few fails.
    Kayaking does not help snatching.

    Cond:
    Mashed the squats and runs together and did sled pulls 200@ 50yds
    Bad idea.

    2/5/5

  8. Seems to be the perfect week to restart after taking it light for a few weeks. Was kind of overworked.

    bbg – took it light 8×1 till 100

    Cond – 3 rounds +2 @115, subbed row for run

  9. Worked up to 155# on snatch

    2rnds+7+5 – @135#

    Conditioning right now is horrible….
    Perfect timing for a new cycle, ready to follow THE WAY excusively….stoked!

  10. Started with power snatches and didn’t plan to go above 80%. Felt really good so I just kept adding weight. Eventually matched my snatch PR at 215lbs with a power snatch. Then just kept adding weight… Ended up with a new PR at 250lbs, 35lb increase. Obviously my problem with snatching lies in pulling myself underneath the bar.

    Conditioning: 2 rounds + 14 front squats

    • Also, thank you Rudy for the programming. I started Outlaw back in December, and could barely do the entire days work because I couldn’t keep up with the volume. I also couldn’t jerk much more than 225, clean more than 250, or snatch more than 155. My first big snatch PR was 205, and that made me light headed and felt like I was going to pass out.

      Now my numbers are starting to show and I’m really proud of them.

      So thanks, Coach.

  11. First Day EVER following Outlaw:
    24/5’8″/175
    Poor Tspine = 95lb snatches to keep good form
    WOD: 2+17

  12. first time post. been following for a short while but Seen lots of improvements following TOW! very excited to start this new cycle with everyone! Thanks

    I was stuck at a 165# snatch for 6 months after about 5 weeks of TOW I hit a 15# pr. Thank YOU!
