Coaching notes

Assume a stable split stance holding a medicine ball overhead. Violently slam the ball into the floor outside the lead hip, catch on the rebound, and reset.

Key points

  • Bring the ball overhead and slam aggressively outside the front hip
  • Maintain a stable lower-body base to resist rotation
  • Reset posture fully between repetitions

Common mistakes

Losing balance in the split stance or letting the lead knee cave inward.
