Exercises (1559)
Pronation of the forearm in the sitting position (right)
Power
Individual work
While seated, place an elasticated band around the (right) thigh and grasp the band with the (right) hand, with the back of the hand pointing downwards. The arm holding the band is bent so that the upper arm is against the body and the lower arm is pointing forwards (90 degree angle at the elbow joint). The other (left) arm secures the training arm by holding the forearm at the elbow. From this position, rotate the arm inwards (pronation) so that the back of the hand is pointing upwards in the end position.
Attention:
The movement only takes place in the forearm, the upper arm remains stable.
Lighten:
Select an elastic band with less resistance.
Harden:
Select an elastic band with greater resistance.

2-4 weight cuffs/2 weight balls/dumbbells ► Make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)
Rotation of the upper body in frontal stance to the wall (left) ► standing upper body rotation
Power
Individual work

Stand upright in front of a wall, shoulder-width apart (facing the wall), with arms bent (approximately 90 degrees at the elbow joint), holding a medicine ball in front of the body with both hands slightly below chest height. The upper body is turned/rotated as far as possible to the left side (gaze follows the movement), while the legs and arms remain stable (lift the heel on the opposite side - right - as far as possible). Then swing the upper body back to the starting position and at the same time throw the ball (sideways) against the wall. Catch the ball and return to the starting position to restart the exercise.
Attention:
Tighten your stomach, keep your back straight, your pelvis remains in place and only your upper body moves.

Power
Individual work


Stand upright, shoulder-width apart, in front of a wall (facing the wall), with arms bent (approximately 90 degrees at the elbow joint), holding a medicine ball in front of the body with both hands slightly below chest height. The upper body is turned/rotated as far as possible to the side (gaze accompanies the movement), while the legs and arms remain stable (lift the heel on the opposite side of the rotation movement at most).

Power
Individual work


Stand upright in front of a wall (facing the wall horizontally, left shoulder closer to the wall), with arms bent (approximately 90 degrees at the elbow joint), hold a medicine ball in front of the body with both hands slightly below chest height.
