Exercise: Ball Slams

  Print This Page  Send to a Friend

• In athletic stance, hold med ball with both hands in front of hips
• Bring ball around, up and over to right side of head
• Explosively throw ball to floor with both hands
• Repeat, but bring ball to left side of head
• Perform 6 to 8 slams on each side

Coaching Point: Get a good followthrough coming over that front leg; it’s like an outfielder throwing home. So if you throw righty, your left leg is planted and your right leg comes off the ground while the chest comes toward the ground—again, just like a good follow-through.
