The Wall Ball
High volume Wall Ball in our WOD today! Here’s a few things to keep in mind while you’re chipping away at this work out!
Thinking of it as a thruster. Use the power of the hip to drive from the bottom of our squat to propel the ball upwards. Standing up hard will help get that ball up to the target every toss.
Speaking of targets…the accuracy element to wall ball shots is an integral part that we should all be aiming to improve..see what I did there?
Wall ball workouts are not supposed to mean we just blindly chuck med balls against the wall anywhere we please.
We should be fighting for positioning on the the way down and setting our sights on a target to hit each time.
There are targeted areas all over both boxes at CF Southie including the floating ones you can miss altogether. The quick and sure way to improve your wall balls is to shoot for as high a target as possible while also aiming for and hitting the middle of a designated and specific target. Aim small, miss small!
If scaling the med ball weight down is necessary to reach a higher intended target, please do so. Going as high as possible and forcing yourself to hit the target will be difficult but will bring quick rewards.
Once you are hitting the 10ft target consistently you should increase the weight of your med ball until you are doing RX weight. Aim high, challenge yourselves…
