first time Fran 10.47

10.57 first time
deamn you Fran
7:11 rx no real improvent from my past times but this was rough after how beat up i am after 12.2. my legs were just shut from the snatches.
1/3 Fran: 7:27 25lbs, blue+red band
3/5 Fran: 9:24 30lbs, blue band for 31 of the pull ups blue+red for others.
I’m justifying the added time by the fact that I upped the weight and changed bands. Next Fran blue bands only!
4:30 Fran 45 lbs and green band…almost 5:30 better than January
5:30 had some AMAZING performances!
4:09 Rx – That’s a new PR. 🙂
awesome job everyone!
4:52Rx (down from 5:50)…and, perhaps more importantly, i wasn’t a pile of worn out borg muscles for 45 minutes afterward.
8:59 Rx
I wasn’t here for the initial test but my previous Rx Fran was over 12 mins.
so many PRs in the 5:30 tonight!!!
3:56 rx – down from 4:26 last time we did it. thanks to tara for being the best judge evaaaaa

Here’s a link to pictures from the First Responder Competition.
Initial test: 4:55 rx
Retest: 4:41 rx
Not a PR but glad to see some improvement. I need to work on my pull-ups and thrusters and get this under 4!
30 days or so ago I puked before I could finish. Today 4:30rx. Pumped!
7:34 RX, down from 10:47 8 weeks ago. Those pull-ups got really slow really fast!
Last time I did Fran I got 6:14 RX, today I got 5:35RX. Should have went faster on the thrusters, next time I’m going for under 5!
3:53…chasing melberg
3:53…chasing melberg
Fran in Jan- 4:37rx
Fran now- 4:16rx
Happy that my time went down, but I would like to do it again soon to try and break 4:00. For some reason I found it necessary to cover myself with chalk every time I went up for pullups…I am the stereotypical crossfitter who thinks that excess chalk will help…in reality I wasted time with this “fairy dust”.
Love that so many people are breaking their previous times! Awesome!
went again at 6:00 and got 4:09…probably should have waited a little longer, but I love that girl, Fran!
Oh Fraaaaaan how we meet again!!!!
03 Jan 12:58 RX (first time doing it)
05 March 9:18 RX
Until next time Fran, I ll keep my eyes out for you!
Mike J and Goose thanks for the encouragement!!!
819 green band to 824 rx and a mean dougie with melberg.
January 7:50 (35#, blue band)
Today 5:14 (35#, blue band)
Totally psyched! Next up, working toward Rx.
Whats a good Fran gameplan? Need one STAT. In January i came out guns-a-blazin then stared at my bar for a longggg time. I did 21/21 unbroken, then hit a brickwall. Want to beat my 7:35 time in a bad way. Any suggestions on a good way to break it up would be appreciated!
that’s exactly what i did last time. 21/21 unbroken and then dead stop. since the thrusters are easier for me, i think i am going to break up just the pull ups into 7s, just to give my arms a few seconds break, since the thrusters are easier for me. though, after all the snatches yesterday, who knows how this will go.
Fran: 6:03…went down exactly as I thought it would thanks to the Diceman’s game plan. No Fran lung, though. Did I do this wrong?
i don’t have it either, i feel like slacker.
POST YOUR FRAN TIMES!!!!!!!!!!
What’s that ring in the picture? Spycam?!
Love that Fran lung! Good 5:30am class today – 6:19 Rx down from 11:11 (95/Red band).
yup, 6:47 Rx from 7:29
and Steve hitting 3:18 Rx
BEAST!
Cant wait for tmrw to hit Fran!!! 2 months later… lets dance baby!!!
