Description
Using a medicine ball, perform a front squat. Upon rising out of the bottom of the squat, violently extend the knees and hips and use the power/momentum generated to toss the ball upwards towards a target. All "air squat" rules apply. Keep the ball as close to your body as possible in order to stay nice and upright.
