#2 Medicine Ball Slam
The medicine ball slam not only targets the core but also strengthens the arms, shoulders and the back.
Instructions:
Step 1: Hold the medicine ball overhead using both the arms. The arms should be fully extended in this position. Stand with slightly bent knees and a straight torso. The distance between the legs should be approximately equal to the width of the shoulders.
Step 2: Slam the ball at a rapid pace while not making any unnecessary movements with the upper body.
Step 3: Catch the ball as it bounces back. Pause for a moment and return to the initial position.
Perform the exercise for the recommended number of times.
Important tip: Slam the ball with a greater force for an easier pickup.
