Dead Ball

Dead Ball

Floor to Shoulder

WHAT IS IT

The Dead Ball lifts a heavy, soft ball from the floor to the shoulder and drops it again. It trains the hip hinge, the grip and the whole back the way the sandbag and the sled pull do.

HOW TO DO IT CORRECTLY

  1. 1Straddle the ball, hinge at the hips and wrap your arms around it with a flat back.
  2. 2Pull the ball into the lap as you drive the hips forward.
  3. 3Stand up fast and roll the ball up the body.
  4. 4Finish with the ball on one shoulder, then let it drop to the floor.
  5. 5Reset the feet and the back before the next rep; alternate shoulders.
