All The Way Up
The wall ball is a great movement for practicing accuracy. The ball should hit the same spot on the target each time. You'll be more successful and hit the target more often if you finish your legs before punching the arms. If you're too impatient, you'll miss the target more often.

Amy and Angel looking on while Jenn goes heavy
Do you feel different when you know someone is watching you? Does it make you go harder?

Workout
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in twelve minutes of:
2-3-5
Deadlift
Muscle up
One round is 2-3-5 reps of each movement.
Pick a heavy weight that is challenging, but not so heavy you have to drop it on each rep.
Long Arms
It takes a lot of patience to make sure you extend your legs before pulling with your arms. As soon as you start pulling, the power driven from the legs is over, so you want to be sure and wait until just the right time. This principal is true for so many functionl movements. It is critical to practice and understand.
