In learning how to perform a wall run, one must eventually practice with walls that are at least double the height of their own. It's emphasized that finding the right foot position against the wall is essential. Ensuring that the hand used to grip the wall corresponds with the foot on the wall enhances the ability to reach higher and successfully navigate the wall.
Momentum plays a critical role in executing the wall run effectively. The focus should be on converting sideways movement into upward momentum. Coordinating foot placement correctly on the wall will facilitate this translation, allowing for greater height when performing the maneuver.
After practicing, one can attempt to run up a wall that poses a challenge, ideally one that is nearly double their height. The process highlighted is crucial for mastering the wall run and achieving a comfortable elevation.
Key points:
- Proper foot and hand positioning is essential for effective wall runs.
- Building momentum is necessary to convert sideways movement into upward movement.
- Practicing on walls that are double one’s height helps in mastering the wall run technique.
Demonstrate a wall-run on a wall that is full-stretch height and catch the top edge - There is no requirement to hold the catch - Fingers must show a grip only for a second. Foot should kick at roughly hip-height on the wall with the ball of the foot.
You can use one hand or two hands over the top edge.
This is to show correct foot placement and hand placement on the wall. Use the same side foot and hand to kick the wall and reach up.
You can use as much momentum as needed.

1 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000 so with the war run um you're going to 2 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000 eventually have to get to the point 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:15,000 where you're going to try and find your 4 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:19,000 max you want to start looking at walls 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:23,000 that are you know double your height or 6 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:26,000 more um and seeing if yeah you you can 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:29,000 get up there now as we've spoken about 8 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:32,000 in all the other warrun videos uh you 9 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:35,000 want to make sure that you get a good 10 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,000 foot position on the wall and you're 11 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,000 going to drive with the same side so the 12 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000 hand that grabs the wall is the same as 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,000 the foot that's going on the wall 14 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,000 because you're going to be able to reach 15 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:53,000 the furthest with that hand um speed is 16 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:57,000 important so the more momentum you get 17 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:59,000 is going to help you curve up but really 18 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:03,000 it's that translation of sideways 19 00:00:60,000 --> 00:01:05,000 momentum to upwards momentum um that's 20 00:00:63,000 --> 00:01:08,000 key and that's really only going to come 21 00:00:65,000 --> 00:01:10,000 with correct foot placement on the wall 22 00:00:68,000 --> 00:01:14,000 so let's give that a go um let's do the 23 00:00:71,000 --> 00:01:18,000 wall run here uh for me this as you can 24 00:00:75,000 --> 00:01:22,000 see this is sort of nearly double my 25 00:00:78,000 --> 00:01:26,000 height maybe a little bit less um but 26 00:00:82,000 --> 00:01:25,000 yeah let's give that a crack 27 00:00:95,000 --> 00:01:39,000 and there we have the wall run up onto a 28 00:00:98,000 --> 00:01:42,000 Higher wall as high as you feel 29 00:00:100,000 --> 00:01:43,000 comfortable
