“Dumbbell Fran”

21-15-9 rep rounds for time of:
Dumbbell thrusters (Men 45 lb dumbbells, Women 30 lb dumbbells)
Pull-ups

My time: 8:50, scaled to 20 lb DB's

I've never done DB Fran before, that I can recall anyway. Could have done the Rx weight, but with a 10 min time limit, I would have gone over. So, in the interest of keeping the intensity level up, I scaled to 20. Got a good workout.

The strength component today was 1 squat clean & jerk on the minute, every minute for 20 minutes. I chose 85 lbs and didn't have any missed lifts. Could have gone heavier but didn't want to risk the 5 burpee penatly for missing. The point was to work on form with a weight you can manage. I managed just fine. ;)
