Sashi Ishi Exercises

[@GKCgoju]

One of our students made this. He used a basketball as a mold, filled it with concrete and inserted a dowel with nails in it (to secure it to the concrete) through the middle.

You have to build up to it like any weight training program. Consolidation of the 'core' (gamaku) is one goal of the exercises.
