Aquaball Two Handed Swing

Video coming soon...

The aquaball Two handed swing workout is designed to target the Hamstrings, Glutes, and Lower Back.

The aquaball, a weighted ball filled with water, adds resistance and instability, intensifying the workout.

By using the aquaball, the Hamstrings, Glutes, and Lower Back are engaged throughout the entire exercise.

While the aquaball may also activate auxiliary muscles, its primary focus is on the targeted muscle groups.

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes pointing slightly outward.
Hold the aquaball with both hands, palms facing each other, and arms extended in front of you.
Engage your core muscles and maintain a straight back throughout the exercise.
Bend your knees and hinge at the hips, lowering the aquaball between your legs.
Drive through your heels and extend your hips and knees, swinging the aquaball up to chest level.
As the aquaball reaches chest level, allow it to swing back down between your legs, keeping your arms straight.
Repeat the swinging motion, using the momentum generated by your hips and legs to power the movement.

Engage your hamstrings and glutes by focusing on a deep, controlled squatting motion as you swing the aquaball between your legs. Imagine pushing your hips back and down, as if you’re sitting on an imaginary chair, to activate these muscles.
Keep your lower back strong and stable throughout the exercise by maintaining a neutral spine position. Avoid rounding or arching your back excessively, as this can lead to strain or injury. Imagine a straight line running from your head to your tailbone.
Maximize the engagement of your hamstrings, glutes, and lower back by using the power of your hips to initiate the swing. As you stand up from the squat, drive your hips forward forcefully, allowing the momentum to propel the aquaball forward.
Focus on maintaining a steady rhythm and tempo during the two-handed swing exercise. Avoid rushing through the movement or using excessive momentum. Instead, aim for a controlled and deliberate swing, emphasizing the contraction of your hamstrings, glutes, and lower back with each repetition.
Challenge yourself by gradually increasing the weight of the aquaball as your strength and form improve. This will provide a progressive overload stimulus to your muscles, promoting further development and growth. Remember to always prioritize proper form and technique over the amount of weight you’re using.
