This is an upper-body explosive, ballistic exercise.<\/p>\n

1. This throw is a version of the overhead throw. Begin by standing while facing a wall or a partner.<\/p>\n

2. Using both of your hands, position the ball behind your head, stretching as much as possible, and forcefully throw the ball forward after you jump into the air. Once your feet are in the air during the jump is when you throw the ball.<\/p>\n

3. Make sure that you follow your throw through, being prepared to receive your rebound from your throw. If you are throwing against the wall, make sure that you stand close enough to the wall to receive the rebound, and aim a little higher than you would with a partner. Also, use brick-type walls for this, not sheet rock; the latter is not so good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
