Good Monday Morning!!

We are going to start off 2010 with an oldie but goodie in the Hyper Wear list of fun activities. We take a game of catch and add a little challenge. First, we all stand on one leg as we toss the SandBell from person to person. We call out the person’s name before we throw it and try to toss it so they have to reach for it, challenging their balance, stability and strength. Longer reaches also add a dynamic stretch into the mix. To make it more challenging, stand on a SandBell as you toss the other set around. If you want to make it really tough, add more SandBells into the mix.

Enjoy!

Eyes on the Bell (part 3) – Monday Morning Muscle #8

Hey there!

To finalize our series of basketball drills, let’s take a look at how to not simply work on how fast or how strong the athlete is, but also to check how stable your athlete is on the court. Being able to run fast uninterrupted and do a large amount of push-ups and squats means nothing on the court if you can’t hold your ground against a bigger athlete who is imposing his/her weight on you.

To help me out today, I’ve enlisted the help of a BOSU, a great piece of stabilization equipment, along with my favorite piece of equipment of all time…..the SandBell!!

Trust me guys and gals, this one is not as easy as I made it look! I was secretly struggling big time!!! Enjoy!
