Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Rotate to the point of tension in the end range, not until you lose spine position.
  2. 2. Keep the lower half stable while the upper body rotates — or vice versa depending on the drill.
  3. 3. Feet anchored and hip-width apart unless the drill specifically calls for a step.
  4. 4. Engage the core before initiating any movement.

Regression:

Reduce the load or lever arm. Perform seated to remove the standing stability demand.

Progression:

Add a plyometric or power element — rotational med ball throw — once strength is established.

Common Problems:

One arm going slack mid-rotation — keep both arms engaged on the implement throughout.
