Pack: 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
Puppies: Use appropriate weight sub Beginner Pull ups, Jumping Pull ups or Ring Rows as necessary.

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.
