Topic description

Push-up position (high support, face/gaze downwards) with legs slightly straddling and arms supported on two small weight discs. Slide one arm including the disc forwards along the floor as an extension of the body, then move the outstretched arm to the side (90 degree angle to the body) and return to the starting position (the movement corresponds to drawing a quarter circle, so to speak). Back in the push-up position, perform the same exercise with the other arm/disc.

Attention:
Head, torso, hips and knees form a line (do not let your buttocks sag, tighten your stomach).

Lighten:
Just hold the basic position (push-up position); reduce the range of motion of the playing arm or only move it forwards and back to the starting position.

Harden:
Additional weight (on the back and/or arms).

Material

2 weight discs (small)

1 weight vest/weight disc/sandbag ► Make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)
2 weight cuffs ► Make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)
