Side Standing Med Ball Shotput w/ Shuffle Start

Med Ball Throws are a great way to develop rotational power.

As the off-season progresses we’ll move from static throws, to static throws with a partner pass, to throws with dynamic starts.

The goal here is to use momentum to increase the power output during the throw and to practice generating power from a changing position.

Typically performed for 3-4 sets of 3-5 reps per side.
