I first started using medicine ball training when I was doing my internship at a physical therapy clinic. I loved the fact that patients and clients could throw them as hard as possible and they would come right back to them. The upper body plyometric nature made them so versatile. Fast forward a few years and the use of medicine ball training has become a lot more mainstream. You’ll probably see them in most fitness facilities across the nation, but the question is, are they being used properly? I’m not saying there’s a right and wrong way to use medicine balls in your training program, I just believe there’s a good way and a better way to integrate them.
