Use when a HYROX athlete or coach wants a realistic plan to complete the wall ball station - target set structure, planned and backup breaks, breathing rhythm, squat efficiency, throw timing, catch position, no-rep mitigation, fatigue-specific practice, and prep volume - and provides the season/division rep count (or accepts a labeled assumption) and recent wall ball capacity. Returns a broken-set completion plan built for cooked legs at the END of the race, not an unbroken set the athlete can only hit fresh. Not general squat strength programming (route to hyrox-station-progression-builder) and not whole-race in-race pacing (route to hyrox-race-pacing-planner) rather than absorbing them here.

# Wall Ball Completion Planner
Build a realistic plan to **complete the wall ball station** - the final station of
the race, performed on the most fatigued legs of the day with no run after it
([station-taxonomy](../../references/station-taxonomy.md),
[compromised-running](../../references/compromised-running.md)). This covers target
set structure, planned and backup breaks, breathing rhythm, squat efficiency, throw
timing, catch position, no-rep mitigation, fatigue-specific practice, and prep volume.
> **The core discipline: plan for cooked legs, not for fresh.** Wall balls come last,
> after eight runs and seven stations including the sleds and sandbag lunges that
> flood the legs. A plan built around an **unbroken set the athlete can only hit
> fresh** is a fantasy that ends in a failure spiral mid-station. This skill builds a
> **broken-set plan with planned and backup breaks** sized to the athlete's
> *fatigued* capacity, so the station gets finished without a stall.
> **Rep count is season- and division-dependent - never asserted from memory.** The… load the full skill through Skill Me
