Tamara Does Firefighter Fran
Because Fran isn't hard enough, Tamara decided to do Firefighter Fran, fully equipped with gear, oxygen tank, and mask.
Words can't really do her workout justice. Just watch the video.
Post props to Tami in comments.

Nice job T! It was an experience spectating- you have definitely taken it to another level. It's also a great confidence builder for you before our little throwdown :).

that was amazing to witness T! You continue to amaze with your mad skillz. Did you know you had such a huge fanbase?

Thanks everyone for the support!!! I thought I was getting ready to film the 4th edition of "Jackass" and of course the huge amount of support helped my to get through it. Let's put the hard challenges behind us and do "sexy" Fran next in bikini's and speedo's !
p.s. I can't take all the credit Wyatt was actually my body double doing the stunts, I just did all the before shots. Great editing Mikey no one suspected a thing ;)

In the words of my stepson, that was ridic! I can't believe I get to work out in the same room as someone like you. Seriously. That was retarded good, very inspiring.
Posted by: sierra at May 11, 2008 7:27 PM
I am sooo frickin' inspired. Keep up the awesome work.

Damn.
I've been watching the performances ratchet up during my twins-imposed CFO exile. Some serious work being done there now by old- and new-timers.
But I have to say that Tamara's improvement these past six months has been frickin' amazing.
Congrats. Just awesome to see your times go down and your weights go up.

Great job!
I've seen In and Out Fran, Firefighter Fran, and the only other Fran I would like to see is Mike and T doing Fran on Crack!
