Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need:
- Medicine ball
- Partner to help perform exercise
Step1
Stand with your knees slightly bent and feet shoulder width apart. Your arms and upper body must be loose.
Step2
Instruct your partner to stand to the side of you a few paces away. Then have them face you. It should be noted that you will be facing out, while they will be facing you. You will be able to see them in your peripheral vision.
Step3
Tell your partner to align their front foot with your feet. This will ensure that you are in proper position to receive and toss the medicine ball.
Step4
Turn toward your partner to receive the medicine ball. Keep your feet planted and facing straight ahead, as your partner tosses you the ball. Turn your upper body toward the ball to catch it.
Step5
Twist your body 180 degrees. While it will never be a perfect 180 degrees because your feet are planted, try to turn around as far as possible.
Step6
Toss the ball back to your partner to complete one repetition.
Step7
Repeat this motion for 3 sets of 20 repetitions to complete the medicine ball off-center rotation exercises. After you are done, switch to the other side so that you get an equal workout.
