What we are looking for today is steady, smooth pace through your rope work and sit ups, and then try to string big chunks of wall balls in before putting the ball down. Ideally, I would like to see unbroken on the wall balls, and that is what I challenge you to go for. If you HAVE to break, try to get through the 30 in as few breaks as possible.
Scaling Options:
Dubs -> 100 Single Unders (ELITE: 100 Dubs)
Ab-Mat Sit Ups -> feet anchored (ELITE: GHD Sit Ups)
MB weight -> 14/10 -> as needed
Cool Down:
Heel cord mash – 2 Min per side
