Are the last two posts serious? Protein consumption should not have a noticeable effect on blood sugar, and undiagnosed diabetes is how you wind up without a hand....

I know someone who's dad semi-recently due to diabetes. He chose not to take care of himself and slowly died of gangrene. It's incredibly sad that anyone would let himself or herself deteriorate like that and is negligent enough not to care.

Also, loving that sticker on the helmet haha. And the financial aid for the colleges I just got accepted to came back... looks like I will be graduating with far less debt than I anticipated. This has been the greatest week of my life I think, even though I was sick and couldn't train.

Eggs actually spike insulin.
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

I did the first 21 thrusters in a row, then 15 swing pullups.

I then continued somewhat slowly but consistently, but spent 6 minutes and all my energy in the following 15 pull ups, had to do them in doubles. Was 9 pull ups shorts t.t

What would be an impressive time for a non-crossfitter like myself to do fran in? Can i clown on some crossfitters by doing it or will i be humbled? Seems fuckin ez to be honest.

I think you will be humbled with fran, the rowing stuff or the wod of deadlift+overhead push ups you could def crush them

Sub 3 minutes per round? Or sub 3 for all 3 rounds?

Reading this quote, it seems 3 minutes per round:

"Breaking the three-minute mark is a big accomplishment,” says Parker. “The top male scorers in the world finish in around two minutes, which is incredible when you think about doing 45 thrusters and 45 pull-ups in that time.”

For the whole thing. Just saw someone from my gym who's decently strong (squat 400 dl 500) and fit but not the best lifter (technique/mobility) do it in 2:55

I've done fran with kettlebells (50-60 lbs each) in around 7 minutes. I imagine barbells are a lot easier though, especially for someone like me. The pull ups were the real killer for me, but that's also when I was fucking awful at pull ups. Once this shoulder tendinitis goes down I might give fran a shot now that I have a little bit of upper body strength and the pull ups won't completely kill me.

Side note, what's a good 2k row time? 7:20 was pretty tiring but I feel like I could get sub 7 with a bit more work/effort.

Unless I'm misunderstanding something, 3 rounds of 45 squats, 45 presses, and 45 pullups (21, 15, 9) would be 3 rounds of 135 movements, or a total of 405 movements - so I'm assuming when you say "whole thing" you mean one round, because 405 movements in 180 seconds seems superhuman.

The 21, 15, 9 are each a separate round. I.E. Three rounds of thrusters and pull ups at 21, 15, 9 reps.

I think triple fran is equivalent to suicide.
