Medicine Ball Training discusses the value of including medicine-ball exercises in a comprehensive training program. Because throwing a medicine ball does not involve a deceleration period (unlike traditional weightlifting movements) during the exercise, explosive movements can be performed without having to slow down the implement. The DVD features a series of medicine-ball exercises that can easily be implemented into a well-designed training regimen.
Among the topics covered:
- Speed-rotation exercises
- Seated exercises
- Kneeling exercises
- Standing exercises
- One-arm exercises
- Two-hand exercises
- Overhead exercises
