The Medicine Ball
Medicine Balls are weighted balls and can really boost your workout routine specifically targeting your abs. Grab a medicine ball and start doing jack knife crunches. Lie flat on the floor with your lower back pushed to the ground and hold the ball over your head with your arms on the floor. At the same time, raise your legs slowly and raise your arms to meet your feet...all the while holding your lower back to the ground. This is a slow movement and try to perform 8-10 reps of these babies and you will feel your lower abs the next day. Of course, as always, consult your doctor before beginning any exercise routine.
The
benefits of using a medicine ball in your routine include:
- Learning
proper lifting abilities.
- Finding
proper spine positioning.
- Exercising
good posture.
- Increased
balance, mobility, stretch, flexibility and strength.
- Control
of body parts and hand-eye coordination.
A
fitness ball or medicine ball can be used in so many different ways that
purchasing one for your home is a great investment.
