Medicine ball rotational throw

Sets, reps and RIR

Stop the set when position breaks, not when the muscle burns. Quality of position is the whole point.

RIR means reps in reserve: how many you could still have done when you racked it. RIR 2 is two short of failure.

Muscles worked

Primary: Obliques.

Secondary: Abs, Glutes.
