Medicine Balls
Medicine balls range from small in size so can be gripped by one hand to larger requiring holding with both hands. They are usually solid and heavy weighted for use in a variety of exercises, mostly to challenge sensory proprioceptors, increase strength, improve balance and coordination in many of the body’s muscle groups as part of a rehabilitation program or training to enhance sports performance.

Medicine balls are known for their use in a dynamic warm-up routine and in developing functional fitness and mobility. They are easy to learn how to use, considered safe to use, and can be important elements in upper body, lower body, and core training.
The increased resistance of the weighted medicine ball challenges the cardiorespiratory system to provide a good cardiovascular endurance training stimulus. Often used in conjunction with a rebounder exercise device to help in rehabilitation of shoulder injuries and post-surgery interventions.
Balance and coordination are beneficial outcomes of medicine ball training and therefore helpful for challenging the deep segmental spinal muscles which also helps improve or maintain good posture.
