How do you take an elite athelete and make them even more elite? You turn them into an OUTLAW!
Two weekends ago Carlie, Genna and Will had the great opportunity to participate in an Outlaw Training Camp that was held at CrossFit Shifted in Palm Desert.
Carlie and Will with Games competitor Elizabeth Akinwale.
Carlie and a few others have been following Outlaw Programming for quite a while now. Those that have been following the programming have reported that they have seen great gains in strength and much improvement in many of their skills. The only problem with Outlaw training is that many of the workouts can take up to two hours! The good news is that we have already (and will continue) to incorporate many of the Outlaw principles into our programming.
On another note, Carlie’s performance while at the camp drew some attention (no surprise there!) Carlie was invited to a special Invitation only CrossFit competition! All the details are below. Let’s plan ahead, mark our calendars and make sure to send a huge crowd of our CFIV family to go and cheer Carlie on!
Date: December 1st & 2nd (Joint event with the USAW American Open.)
Location: Palm Springs, California – The Palm Springs Convention Center
Competition Format: All competitors will start the event with an Olympic Weightlifting Total. Those who have qualified for the USAW American Open will use their Total from that event. Those who have not qualified for the USAW American Open will Total, using USAW standards, as the first event of The Outlaw Open on Saturday morning. The CrossFit style portion of the event will begin after all Totals are complete. There will be no less than five workouts featuring no less than eight data points.
Workouts: All workouts will be announced right here on The Outlaw Way, Monday, October 29nd. All workouts will be written as a collaboration between me, and CJ Martin from CrossFit Invictus. We believe that announcing the workouts 5 weeks in advance will give every competitor a chance to prepare, even if there are movements they are unfamiliar with. We also believe that collaborating on the workouts is the best possible way to avoid any part of the competition favoring one athlete over another.
Prize: $10,000 – winner take all
Competitors: This will be an invitation only event. We would love to make it an open qualification process, but at least for this year’s event we simply do not have the means to accommodate such an undertaking. If you would like to be considered for invitation, please email: Rudy@TheOutlawWay.com.
Scheduled to Compete: Here’s just a few… Pat Barber, Talayna Fortunato, Camille LeBlanc-Bazinet, Caleb Williams, Aja Barto, more to be announced soon.
Spectators: Your ticket to the USAW American Open will get you in to both events. For more info, click here.
