For time:

150 Wallball shots, 20# ball; wall target should be 10′ from the floor.

If you don’t have a 20# ball, sub the heaviest medicine ball laying around or have made.

If you don’t have a ball, find a rock, sack of flour, a small child (just kidding, don’t do that ) and rep out 150 shots.

If you still don’t have anything like that, do 150 jumping squats for time, and try to get at least 8-12 inches off the floor each time.

Post time + weight used (or lack of) to comments.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

This is the workout that will become our standard warm-up.

3 rounds of 10-15 reps:
Samson Stretch (once each round for 15-30 seconds)
