Description

Lie down on a bench or a stable surface, with your hands ready to catch the weighted ball. As you catch the ball, follow through by extending your arms backward over your head to achieve a full range of motion. Then quickly and dynamically sit up to powerfully throw the ball back to your partner. Control each catch firmly before moving backward again and repeating the movement in a fluid and explosive manner, while remaining mindful of your partner’s safety.
