How to do it

Setup

Stand facing the wall target, the ball on the floor in front of you.

Steps

  1. Hands on the ball, kick back to a plank and do a push-up on it.
  2. Jump the feet in and stand up with the ball at the chest.
  3. Squat and throw the ball to the target in one drive.
  4. Catch it, put it down and drop into the next rep.

Common mistakes

Throwing from the arms: the legs launch the ball. Ball rolling in the plank: grip its sides. Catching high with straight arms: absorb it into the squat.

Breathing

Exhale on the push-up and the throw.
