stimulus & strategy
Today’s workout is a twist on Fran, with increasing reps and the movements performed in reverse order. While this version is different, it can still be helpful to look back at previous Fran attempts to help build a pacing strategy for today. Choose a relatively light barbell load that allows you to complete each round in 3 sets or fewer. At no point should the barbell feel so heavy that it forces you to stop moving. Select a pull-up variation that allows you to finish each round in 4 sets or fewer. After completing the couplet, you’ll use the remaining time on the 18-minute clock to build to a heavy 1-rep thruster from the floor.
