Sooooo I’ve watched a bunch of you guys do this one already and here is some tips that may help you. If you have a Fran that is well over 4 min or you really struggle with C2B pullups, you should approach this as a 4 min sprint with just like you would regular Fran. If the C2B is going to be your problem the break them up early and often, triples, double or singles and just keep chugging and try to get to the third round of thrusters. If you want to get into the 8 min round then you cant kill yourself early. Dont get caught up in going super fast on your first round, control your breathing on the thrusters and break up the C2B into 5s or 8/7. Dropping the thrusters more than once or breaking the pullups into small sets (under 4) will be too slow. Then if you get into the ‘bonus’ 4 min, hold on and get as many reps as you can any way you can. Also try not to die. Good luck guys.
