The Exercises

Wall Balls

Stand holding a medicine ball in front of your chest on front of a wall.

Pull your shoulders back and engage your abs, then lower down as you push your butt & hips back as if you were sitting in a chair, keeping the ball in front of your chest. Push up back into a standing position, throwing the ball up toward the wall.

Lower back down into a squat position, simultaneously catching the ball in front of your chest. Repeat.

Burpee Lateral Jumps w/ Obstacle

Repeat the sequence as fast as you can with control.
