• Return to center, then rotate right

• Resist as partner pushes against med ball

• Continue rotating quickly and resisting for specified reps

Advanced: Perform last set with eyes closed. Partner will push med ball in any directionSets/Reps/Recovery: 3x10 each side; rest 60 seconds between sets
Benefits: Improved balance, core and upper-body strength
Coaching Points: When you rotate and push, do not lean or twist at your knees. Twist in your waist.
