Strength/Skill Work: Pistols
WOD
21 Front squats
21 pull-ups
15 push-press
15 pull-ups
9 thrusters
9 pull-ups
For time.
Use the same bar for the entire work-out. Use 75% of your max push-press or thruster weight not to exceed 135/95lbs. This work-out should completed with a load 20-30% heavier than at which you would perform the benchmark WOD Fran.

Great job John! What weight did you use?
Did anybody tell Phoebe that the lil’ purple bands are known as “the mental bands”? Phoebes, next thing you know, they’re gonna tell you you’re not allowed to use bands anymore. That’s what happened to me, anyway.
You got it Matt. We allow everyone some time with the “mental band” before we wean them off. Just like a small child.
Here’s the smoothie of the century (that helped me recover from Franzilla):
Frozen banana
Frozen strawberries
apple juice
tons o’ almond butter
hemp protein
Seriously. This smoothie will change your life.
Hemp protein? Do you just put a rope in your blender?
