Today we have the wonderful pleasure of meeting FRAN. Many of you have already experienced the true pleasure of meeting FRAN, but many others have yet to grace her presence. Once you meet FRAN, it will be a day that you will remember for many years to come. As the years go by, you will reminisce and conger up memories of that special day. The day that you were allowed to take in all the joys and pains that come so naturally when interacting with FRAN.
Stories……oh yea, you’ll have stories to tell. You will speak of the fear and anticipation that you experienced leading up to the exact moment that you met FRAN. You will explain how you developed a cough even though you weren’t even sick. You will have vivid flashbacks reminding you of the pulsating pain that traveled through your forearms during the minutes following.
At the end of the day, as you begin to reflect back on the days events, your “FRAN EXPERIENCE” will surly be the highlight of the day.
Everyone, I take great pleasure in introducing you to a good friend of mine……….please say hello to FRAN!

Definitely hard on the forearms. And my chin as I forgot to move my big @ss head out of the way on my press. Actually did draw a spot of blood. Had to drop to 45 to keep form and stayed on green band due to arm pump but it’s all good!
Wow!! Awesome Fran times! Keep up the good work everyone! Thanks for all the love
Congrats on that muscle up!! One day I wanna b like
you when I grow up
It’s been so long since I’ve seen Fran!! Definitely at least over a year or longer (maybe even two!!). Injury and nerve stopped me from seeing her but I’m back and ready for visits. Today was tough! I considered doing less weight but I knew I could do 65# ( it would just take me longer). So I did the Rx’d weight. I’m so happy I did. Now I have a time that I know I can improve on! Thanks to my Coaches for the push
I got 6:27.
Fran, I’ll see you again soon and next visit WILL be shorter
Oh…. And Karla… You are so very amazing!!!! I knew you’d get it!!! It is so powerful to watch what happens when you refuse to let defeat get in the way!!! You inspire me!!!
FRAN it was a pleasure meeting you!! 55# green band pullups
