Tennis: Sit up with medicine ball

Sportplan has been very helpful in guiding me through my first year...
Bill, Newly qualified coach

DESCRIPTION

The player lays down on the ground with knees bent, and the coach throws the medicine ball to the player. The player catches the ball, makes a sit up and throws the ball back.

COACHING POINTS

Core is responsible for power especially while hitting from the open stance so players should work on abs and lower back consistently. This drill helps to build core muscles to prevent injuries and develop stronger upper body.
