AMRAP 20 Minutes:
20 Thrusters 95/65
20 Pull-Ups
20 Double-Unders
The thrusters should be light enough to do a few unbroken sets, but if you’ve never done an Rx’d barbell on “Fran,” then use today to push the weight a bit. Similarly with pull-ups, the intention is to kip through them in 1 or 2 sets early on. Scale some volume if needed or use bands or ring rows, but today is a good day to slog through some volume on a challenging version. Scale double-unders if needed to 10 attempts or 50 singles.
Post rounds and Rx to comments.
