Warmup:

10

min

Equipment:

Barbell, Medicine Ball, Rack Recommended

Cooldown:

5

min

Modality:

Weightlifting

Coaching notes

Start with a dynamic warm-up emphasizing leg and lower back mobility. Include air squats and light deadlifts to prepare the muscles. For wall ball shots, focus on a fluid squat and a strong push to project the ball. Maintain a consistent rhythm, and break the sets if needed to preserve form. In back squats, use a rack and choose a weight that is challenging but manageable for 10 reps. Maintain a straight back and deep squat, breaking the reps into smaller sets if necessary. For deadlifts, prioritize form over speed. Keep the back straight and use hip drive to lift. Scale the weight to maintain proper technique, especially in later rounds. This workout is designed to test leg strength and endurance. Focus on maintaining a steady pace, balancing the intensity between the wall ball shots and the weighted lifts. Cool down with light cardio and stretching, focusing on the legs and lower back to aid in recovery and flexibility.
