Topic description

With some distance between them, the partners stand back to back and the two exercisers alternately pass a weighted ball/disc to each other once above their heads and once between their legs (stretching and bending the upper body). The direction of the ball/disc transfer is changed from time to time.

Lighten:
Lighter ball; without ball (hands touching).

Harden:
Transfer heavier object.
