21-15-9. The most popular rep scheme in all of CrossFit, probably best known from the benchmark workout “Fran”. This descending rep scheme has proven to be quite effective in preserving intensity. By the time we get to the 15’s, the nature of the workout has it feeling similar to the 21’s, but knowing we have 6 reps less to complete keeps us holding on and moving forward. Compare this to three rounds of 21. We would probably have a more conservative plan of attack going in, decreasing the intensity of the workout.
