Kim G - Battle 2 "fer" Wallball
Pooch on the rope!
Great story Paul! Nice working with you yesterday.
ReplyDeletePaul that's cool that your kiwi friend crossfits too. And I had no idea you were from Chicago, thanks for working out with us during the week.
ReplyDeleteWhat's a two fer wall ball? Does that mean every time you go over the line it counts for two? Yay! That sounds like a deal.
ReplyDeleteBut seriously, yesterday I was thinking "well at least we haven't done wall balls in awhile. I hate those." Aimee, stop reading my thoughts.
ahahaha Dorothy- A two fer wall ball is a normal wall ball where that you must air squat again between reps (therefore in the time before the ball comes back down).
ReplyDeleteThe 6AM 2"fers" are professionals now, they can tell you all about it...Joe, Jay, Kim, Tim, Tom, Steph & Pooch-great perseverance on the 2 "fer" wall balls!
Kim G. put up a tough battle with her wall ball today! Next time you will conquer it!
Kim G = 0 2 fer Wall Ball =1
Haha I'm just glad I made it out alive! Add that to the skills I need to practice.
ReplyDeleteoh my! That's even worse than I imagined. I figured you could do an extra squat while holding the ball.
ReplyDeleteGo for a ball that you can hit the ceiling with - that'll give you plenty of time to get that 2nd squat in :)
ReplyDeleteOhhh man! I don't think we ever did 2 fers when I was at xfitkop? I'm tryin today after work though, wish me some luck!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you guys enjoyed the NZ story! Wish I could be there today to try some of these nasty lookin' two fers. Unfortunately, I've got a flight to catch.
ReplyDeleteTrishaLou we miss you!
ReplyDeleteTrishaLou where are you?
Let us know how the 2-fers go!!!
