Medicine Ball Training Fitness Tip – Keith Byard, ACSM, USMC

Medicine Ball exercises are an important tool for developing sport specific power. While there are various methods to increase power, a common element is speed of contraction. Medicine balls are relatively light, allowing exercises to be performed explosively. My favorite exercise is to hold a medicine ball with 2 hands and draw the alphabet in capital letters A to Z, often as a warm-up.
