21-15-9 Explained
A “21-15-9” is a CrossFit style workout that uses a 21, 15, 9 rep scheme. Essentially, you do each movement in the workout, with a fixed weight, for 21 reps, then 15 reps, then 9 reps, for time. This is a high intensity workout so you are trying to complete it in the quickest time possible while maintaining good form.
