    Nice. Two flaws with this theory, first Sandra is not asian and second I don’t have a 3:00 Fran like Greg A.

    @Ryan H
    Greg does seem to have issues with getting his head through the window and questionable chin over the bar…lol.

    This morning I focused my limited work out time on streching…I did add a quick 50 Burpee work out in there and didn’t have a steller time…3:12 mins. I also did 25 HSPU’s with one abmat.

    Have a great day!

    Does “Fat Fran” require chest-to-bar pull ups?

  • Rob Mar 04, 2010 

    Did Kind of Fat Fran…115/c2b pull ups 15-12-9 8:27. It sucked.I broke up thrusters 10-5, 6-3-3, 4-3-2 and pull ups 5-5-5, 4-4-4, 3-3-3. She wasn’t completely fat, but sure was heavy.

    WOD at the park-

    8 x 400 m with 2:00 rest in between (1:55, 1:55, 1:55, 1:54, 2:06, 2:10, 1:58, 1:45)

    Then 10 rounds of: 3 dead hang pull ups, 10 sit ups, and 20 squats.
    Not for time; just made sure I kept moving at a good pace.

    I broke up with Fran… She hurts me everytime I meet her.
    “Fran” 95# 5:01

    Aja and Rob are animals… Fat Fran (135#) and Chubby Fran (115#) with C2B PullUps is insanely awesome in my book.

    9:something for skinny fran… i think it would have been better if 1. i’d gotten my squats all the way down and 2. (which influences #1) i hadn’t messed up my back. so 9, almost 10, minutes for fran with a nasty back i don’t think is too terrible… my pullups felt GOOD.

    also, crossfit (on fb) put up some dude doing 106 pullups… good for him, but is he getting high enough to really call them pullups? :)
