The arms are straight and the hands are cupped around the back of the ball. The athlete should focus on the hip and torso extension and catch themselves in a push-up position. The athlete assumes a semi-squat position, placing the ball on the ground and between the legs. The hands are placed underneath and to the sides of the ball. The ball is scooped off the ground by thrusting the hips forward and up.
