Buddy Carry 2

JT Scott | 08/01/2021 | 1

One thing I love about doing this gym thing for well over a decade now is that I can bring back old favorites.

This week Nelly and Augie are both out of town for some vacation time, so there’s no evening classes. That means we’ll be running a whole week of “FUN WITH…” themed workouts. And lest you think this is just JT being weird now, you can rest assured that I’ve been weird for a very long time.

Case in point: today’s workout is a direct re-run of this one from 2013: A “Fun With Medballs” workout that doesn’t include a single wallball attempt. At the time, I said this about it: “there is no perfect form for what you have to do today.”

So get ready to have some Fun With Medballs – guaranteed 100% wallball free, but still a great workout for you.

Strength: Push Press 3-3-3

WOD: “My Buddy”
4 Rounds
Run 400m with Medball
20 Ball Slams
10 Burpees Onto Ball
10 Walking Lunges with Ball Overhead

(For “Burpees Onto Ball”, begin standing with ball on ground. Place hands ON BALL, lower chest TO BALL in a plank position, and then return to standing with a jump at the top. This is a fun, close-grip pushup style of stimulus, and also challenges your grip on the ball. Placing hands on the ground beside the ball is a scaling option.)
