10 Medicine Ball Deck Squats
MB Deck Squat; Holding an 8-10# med ball or slam ball (or a 15# Kettlebell if you have a good dentist), squat down as deeply as possible, roll back onto your shoulders, and touch the ball to the floor over you head. Reverse the movement by swinging the ball forward, bracing your midsection and kicking your heels down into the floor close to your hips as you come into a deep squat, finish the rep by standing up. Speed is critical to generate momentum on the way up. If you don’t have really good ankle and hip mobility this movement will likely elude you. Instead practice deep squats with the weight as a counterbalance, and then practice rocking to your feet from a tucked supine position.
