Скачать или смотреть Train with Medicine Balls to Develop Explosive Power, Strength, and Muscular Endurance!

In this episode of Fitness Facts, various medicine ball exercises are discussed and demonstrated. Medicine balls are weighted balls used for power, strengthening, balance, and endurance. They can weigh anywhere from just a couple of pounds to 50 pounds or more. They may be soft or hard, and they come in a variety of sizes. Unlike dumbbells, medicine balls can be safely thrown against walls, the floor, workout partners, or rebounders, helping athletes develop power and functional strength. Medicine balls are also often used for plyometric exercises like weighted box jumps and burpees, along with core work, balance exercises, and rehabilitation from injuries. Like other strength training implements, medicine balls offer a load or form of resistance that can be used to progressively overload the muscles and build strength. They also have unique benefits because of their shape and ability to be thrown and/or bounced. Additionally, many of the best medicine ball exercises involve movements that utilize numerous planes of motion simultaneously, such as when twisting, turning, and bending the body, which translates more readily to the compound and functional movements in sports and everyday life. Although not an exhaustive list, some of the benefits of medicine ball exercises include the following:

• Building muscular strength
• Developing explosive power
• Improving balance and coordination
• Increasing speed
• Boosting athletic power
• Engaging multiple muscle groups at once
• Improving throwing and rotational strength
• Providing a metabolic conditioning tool
• Augmenting "functional fitness"
• Rehabilitating injuries
