Strength: trunk flexion

Partner work

Two participants lie on their backs with their legs bent opposite each other (legs pointing towards their partner; possibly hook each other's feet). At the same time, the participants perform a torso bend (raise/lower upper body) and hand each other a medicine ball (easy to difficult: hold ball in front, hold ball in front of chest, hold ball up with arms outstretched).

Variant:
One participant holds the claw with raised upper body towards the partner, who in turn also hits two straight lines on the claw with raised upper body. Both participants then perform a torso bend so that the claw can be handed over when the upper body is raised again. During the next exercise (trunk bend), the other participant now hits the claw, etc.
