WOD:

For Time*:

100 Wall Balls (20/14)

*Every Minute on the Minute – 5 Pull Ups

*WOD begins with 5 Pull Ups

Time Cap: 15 Min

Video courtesy of Invictus Fitness.  Some good tips on Wall Ball efficiency. So, if you do the quick math, you need to average 7 or more reps per minute to make it under the cap.  Sounds very doable, but don’t forget, those pull ups will start to tax you a few minutes in.  My suggestion, go until about 10 seconds left per minute, just to have enough time to catch your breath before getting the pull ups out of the way and having enough gas in the tank to knock out some solid wall balls every minute.

Scaling Options:

Med Ball weight -> 14/10 -> as needed

Pull ups -> Buddha Rows -> Ring Rows (Elite: Bar Muscle Ups)

Cool Down:

Couch Stretch – 2 min per side

 

Kneeling lat stretch – 1 min per arm
