To teach how to pivot on your toes when in a sport-specific squat position, which helps improve the strength of the knee. Used for post-surgery ACL rehab and injury prevention of the knee in sport.
Demonstration and Instructions
Start in a squat position holding a medicine ball outstretched. On your toes, slowly pivot and turn one way, keeping both knees parallel and not letting your knees angle inwards. Keep you knees over your toes / inline with your feet at all times. Pivot one way and then the other, slowly increasing speed as able without losing form.
