Which workout uses a 21-15-9 scheme with Clean at 135 pounds and Ring Dips?

• A. Elizabeth
• B. Fran
• C. Nancy
• D. Annie

Answer: (A)

Elizabeth is defined by a 21-15-9 rep scheme performed with two movements: cleans at 135 pounds and ring dips. In this workout, you complete 21 reps of the clean and 21 reps of ring dips, then 15 of each, then 9 of each. The 135-pound clean is a traditional men’s load for this workout, providing a challenging but achievable pace that tests strength and cycling ability, while ring dips add stability demand and pressing strength from the rings.

The other workouts listed use different movements and/ or rep schemes, so they don’t match this exact combination. Fran involves thrusters and pull-ups, Nancy pairs running with overhead squats, and Annie uses sit-ups with double-unders, none of which fit the 21-15-9 structure with cleans at 135 and ring dips.
