Strength: trunk flexion and straight stroke

Partner work

Participant A lies on their back with their legs bent and feet up. The shoulder blades are raised off the floor and the fists are doubled in front of the head (hands at chin height). Participant B stands upright at his partner's head height with bent forearms (90 degrees at the elbow joint). Participant A raises his upper body explosively, rotates his upper body slightly and strikes crosswise against the hand of participant B (strikes with the left and right fist alternately). The upper body is lowered between repetitions, but the shoulder blades do not touch the floor.

Variant:
Lift the upper body, perform 3 alternating punches (e.g. li-re-li) and lower the upper body again.
