This morning’s FitCamp workout was new to many but the name is one you will certainly not forget anytime soon if you were in class today…. “FRAN”. 

A few months back Nick and I had the pleasure of visiting CrossFit New England for a 2 day CrossFit certification program.  At the end of our first day the instructors told us we would be going head-to-head doing the one workout (“FRAN”) that had me laid out like a sweat drenched pancake a few weeks earlier. 

Fran is a deadly combination of Thrusters and Pull-ups completed in superset format for 21, 15 and 9 reps completed for fastest time.  Perscribed weight for guys is 95#, girls 65#.

There is only one thing I love about doing this workout… finishing.  That and the fact that it is one of the most incredible full-body workouts you will ever do. 

The following clip is of the co-owner of CrossFit New England, Heather Keenan doing the workout we did today in FitCamp.  I am sure you will have the same appreciation of this amazing pace that I do and know that although she makes this look easy we all now know that “FRAN is a bitc*”!

P.S.  If you were in class today then let’s hear your comments on your first FRAN workout??

Welcome to the New Ultimate FitCamp website!

After a few minor setbacks and glitches we’re finally live. The site is pretty bare right now with a lot of work to do but over the next few days and weeks I will be adding much more helpful content and resources to make your experience with us in FitCamp even better. 

If you want to stay up to date with progress on the new studio and changes to the site then be sure to sign-up for FitCamp Updates by adding your e-mail to the “Get FitCamp Updates” box on your right.

Also, take a look around and let me know if you have any ideas of info you’d want to see on the site and be sure post your comments by clicking on the headline above.
