Animated Medicine Ball Exercises

Ever wondered, “What the heck would I do with a medicine ball?”  They may seem like they have limited usefulness besides adding weight to your situps.  However, if you get creative about how to use a medicine ball in your workout, you might surprise yourself.  Also, if you are disciplined enough to follow an exercise program, it can catapult your ability to use medicine balls to a new level.  I always enjoy some type of visual help when learning an exercise.  Images are great, but videos work best.  Well, here is a listing, complete with animations, of several different workouts you can do to train upper and lower body muscle groups using a medicine ball.  Enjoy.
