John here using med ball throws to get in some extra lateral shuffle work. Rotational med ball throws aren’t only for the rotational athlete.

Them: “Keep the bar close, bar should run right up the front, shins should be red/bloody.”

Me: Wondering why my hamstrings are red.

Move well and often, but be sure to move and get strong in many different ways.

The door is up and Keely is starting to lengthen out those sprints again.

John has put a big emphasis on trying to clean up his lateral gait cycle for basketball. This 2-shuffle rotational med ball throw has provided the opportunity to get some extra work in with that goal in mind, while also building in some rotational power for baseball.

More work to be done, but it’s coming along and looking cleaner.

The core and rotational patterns can benefit from this type of work as well. Sometimes I like to program this before a rotational med ball exercise or some other rotational power exercise.

Not sure how to progress a front plank? Sometimes the easiest way is just progressive overload, like we do with many other things.

A little rotational core overcoming isometric.

Improves neural drive specific to rotation and explosive rotational power.

Put more weight on than you could ever actually move. Get in a stable setup and then as quickly as possible try create as much rotational force as you can.

Hold the max contraction for 3-6 seconds, and do 2-3 per side, per set. Maybe one if you push hard enough to foam out the mouth like I did on the last clip. 😬
