Nice work, man. Those pullups you were knocking out have definitely given me something to shoot for next time.
6:38 Rx
7:35 RX (27 seconds better than last time) (PR) Great seeing so many tonight! Thanks Kevin for counting for me.
5:56 rx
13:54: 55#, skinny red.
Not sure how I feel about this. Last fran was on 09/23, time was 11:55 @ 45# and blue band. This time around was definitely a lot heavier, made it harder to maintain the intensity Todd was looking for. I’ll reserve judgement until we do another Fran.
Mark Rippetoe – “On resting in between reps: It varies with the length of the set. 5s or fewer get a breath to reset. Longer sets might take 2 breaths. During the last few reps of a true 20RM squat, just do what Jesus tells you.”
This looks great KC. If I were an engineer I’d throw out some math percentage-talk about the effort. “Good job!” is all I got.
Nice, helpful quote, thanks.
