Ab Wheel

- Start in a kneeling position with your hands on a medicine ball
- Flex your abs then slowly roll the ball out in front of you
- This is a similar position as the classic “ab wheel” but once you are extended you will have to “fight” the ball back towards you
- Envision snapping an opponent down as you roll back to starting position
