The Metabolic Medicine Ball Workout

2016-12-10 39

The medicine ball has been around forever (seriously—they were used by athletes in ancient Persia!), but many guys don't know how versatile a tool it really is. Besides holding it against your chest during sit-ups, you can throw it, catch it, rest on it, or lift it like you would a dumbbell. Even a light medicine ball can take a moderate workout up to an intense one that burns fat and builds athletic power. Here's a routine that does just that.
