Medicine Ball Chest Push from 3-Point Stance

From a crouched three-point stance with one hand on the ball, drive up and forward and push the ball out from the chest; the legs start the throw and the arms finish it.

How to do it

Setup

Crouched low, feet shoulder-width, back flat, the ball on the floor in front with one hand on it.

Steps

  1. Grab the ball with both hands and drive up out of the crouch.
  2. Push it forward from the chest as the body rises, arms fully extending.
  3. Release it, finish tall, then crouch back into the stance.

Common mistakes

Pushing with the arms alone: the legs start the drive. Rounding the back in the crouch: hips back, back flat. Throwing into a crowded space: clear room in front and a soft landing for the ball.

Breathing

Sharp exhale on the throw.
