Level I:
As Rx’d
Women use 65#’s
Level II, and III:
Fran done well is a 3-5 minute workout. This time try choosing a weight that will let you do the workout with good form in that time. Be warned, the difference between sub 5 and sub 3 in metabolic cost is enormous.
(usually intermidiate weights are 65-75# for men, and 35-45# for women)
We have been recommending trying one of these other variations:
5 sets of 9 each exercise or
9 sets of 5 each exercise
Another very valid way of scaling this if you are able to lift 95/65#’s for a few reps but 21-15-9 seems daunting, would be to use the rx’d weight but scale the reps.
12-9-6
Thrusters, 95/65#
21-15-9
Pull ups
If you can manage this in 3-5 minutes with good form, the next time this comes up you might try:
15-12-9
thruster 95/65#
21-15-9
Pull ups
Level IV and V:
Use appropriate weight
sub Beginner Pull ups, Jumping Pull ups or Ring Rows as necessary.
