Squatted MB Turns

A difficult exercise only suitable for advanced athletes, this exercise also works the Quadriceps and Buttock muscle groups.

Place your feet firmly on the floor, double shoulder width apart, feet facing outwards slightly for greater stability, or to make the exercise even harder, bring your feet closer together.

Aim to work with a partner of a similar height, or raise the lower partners height with a sturdy step box.

Keeping your backs together, squat down no lower than a 90-degree bend in your legs and perform the partner medicine ball twist exercises.

Progress through the exercises in a logical manner, begin with the easiest, the horizontal twist - diagonal twist and if you can manage it, the vertical circles.

Extreme progression of this exercise is to lower and rise from the squatted position in a controlled communicated manner with your partner whilst performing the ball maneuvers.

Perform a comfortable amount of reps in each direction dependent upon your strength level, have a quick stretch and then repeat again aiming to progress on to the harder methods.

Finish the exercise movement in the raised squatted position, so you can step away from your partner without collapsing.
