General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same medicine ball setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Return Push from Stance sessions.
Weight, repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 3 sets of 8 reps at 30 kg. Next time, record the actual result, even if it is the same.
Look for more repetitions at the same weight, or a heavier weight for comparable repetitions. Total weight lifted also changes when you add sets, so it is not a strength score.
