Hannah demonstrates the Leg Hold Overhead Medball Throw TECHNIQUE: This movement engages the core by maintaining the leg lift position as well as incorporating chest through the medball throw. ADVANTAGE: This is an easier adaptation of the classic pushup. Using the medball throw can help distract from the core workout. FAULTS: It is important to keep the elbows at the side to get the full affect of the chest workout. It is important not to follow the ball once it has been thrown, shoulder and upper back should stay on the floor. throughout the entirety of this movement. SCALING: This can be made easier by taking away the leg hold, it can also be made more difficult by moving it into a pushup. A band assisted pushup is the perfect middle man between this movement and a full pushup.
