Video Details

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:

  1. Proper foot and hand positioning is essential for effective wall runs.
  2. Building momentum is necessary to convert sideways movement into upward movement.
  3. Practicing on walls that are double one’s height helps in mastering the wall run technique.

The Lesson

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.

Repeat three times on each side.

so with the war run um you're going to
8.84
eventually have to get to the point
10.599
where you're going to try and find your
12.4
max you want to start looking at walls
16.44
that are you know double your height or
19.56
more um and seeing if yeah you you can
23.599
get up there now as we've spoken about
27.279
in all the other warrun videos uh you
30.32
want to make sure that you get a good
32.64
foot position on the wall and you're
36.239
going to drive with the same side so the
39
hand that grabs the wall is the same as
42.719
the foot that's going on the wall
44.2
because you're going to be able to reach
47.039
the furthest with that hand um speed is
51.039
important so the more momentum you get
53.96
is going to help you curve up but really
57.199
it's that translation of sideways
60.64
momentum to upwards momentum um that's
63.719
key and that's really only going to come
65.84
with correct foot placement on the wall
68.88
so let's give that a go um let's do the
71.6
wall run here uh for me this as you can
75.28
see this is sort of nearly double my
78.68
height maybe a little bit less um but
82.84
yeah let's give that a crack
95.799
and there we have the wall run up onto a
98.799
Higher wall as high as you feel
100.759
comfortable

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
