Transport your comrade from one fanjon to another (Gamstrage grip) using the transport techniques from the regulations for self-help and comrade assistance (59.005).

Attention:
The back must be straight when lifting the comrade.

Material per participant: Tenue CNG 428

Additional material: 2 fanjons

Lay on your side, stretch your legs and arms and lift them slightly off the floor. Pull your navel towards your spine and consciously tense your abdomen and then change your side position without changing your body position (roll alternately to the right or left side).

Attention:
Stretched arms and legs practically form a line.

Lighten:
Just hold the position with your arms and legs raised and switch sides from time to time.

Harden:
Add weight to your arms and/or legs.

2-4 weight cuffs/2 weight balls/dumbbells ► Make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)

Stand upright in front of a wall, shoulder-width apart (facing the wall), with arms bent (approximately 90 degrees at the elbow joint), holding a medicine ball in front of the body with both hands slightly below chest height. The upper body is turned/rotated as far as possible to the left side (gaze follows the movement), while the legs and arms remain stable (lift the heel on the opposite side - right - as far as possible). Then swing the upper body back to the starting position and at the same time throw the ball (sideways) against the wall. Catch the ball and return to the starting position to restart the exercise.

Attention:
Tighten your stomach, keep your back straight, your pelvis remains in place and only your upper body moves.

Lighten:
Smaller movements (less rotation); lighter ball.

Harden:
Additional weight (on the arms); heavier ball; unstable base.

High side plank on the extended (left) arm, with the hand positioned directly beneath the shoulder; the wrist, elbow and shoulder should be in a straight line, with the legs either crossed or slightly offset. Lift the body until the head, torso and legs also form a straight line. First stretch the free arm upwards, then slowly rotate the upper body forwards/downwards and bring the free arm under the torso (rotation). Keep the hips stable; the movement should come from the thoracic spine, not the pelvis.

Attention:
The hips do not tilt or rotate (loss of stability), momentum rather than control (training effect is lost), rotation is too fast, the shoulder ‘sags’ in the supporting arm, the neck rotates instead of the thoracic spine, do not hold your breath.

Lighten:
Knee on the floor (modified side plank); rotation without bringing the arm all the way under the body (smaller range of motion); feet staggered rather than one on top of the other; open the hand of the free arm only to shoulder height (no full rotation).

Harden:
Stack your feet on top of each other (less stable base); perform a slow, controlled eccentric phase (rotate very slowly); additional weight in the top hand; unstable surface under the supporting hand; pause at the end of the rotation (isometric hold under tension); combine with leg lifts (e.g. lift the top leg in the side plank).
