Bike
### Scrape Your Shoe
The combination of bike right into wallballs can be pretty “quaddy”. We can make take some strain off the quads by pretending to scrape mud off the shoe in the bottom of each rotation. This action of pulling back and up can recruit more of the posterior chain and prevent excess quad burn.
Wall Ball
### Use Your Whole Shoe
The wallball demands more balance than a typical front squat due to the larger range of motion and the fact that we have to catch a falling weight. To maintain better balance in this movement, think about getting the whole bottom of the shoe on the ground. If we had paint on our shoes, it would make a perfect imprint on the floor. Pushing the big toe, pinky toe, and heels into the ground can also help us use more muscle than just driving from the front of the foot.
