Sunday – 041512 – Tire Flips…


Some tips for flipping tires…

Five rounds for time, resting as needed between rounds:

15 Tire Flips

Prescribed rounds will demand that the athlete flip the tire, jump from the outside of tire to the inside, then to the other side before starting on their next flip. For those who cannot make that jump, they can run around the tire to the other side. For athletes that cannot find a tire that is an appropriate weight, partner up on a larger tire and flip it together.
