Medicine ball core training is a form of exercise that focuses on strengthening and stabilizing the muscles of the core using a medicine ball. The core muscles include the abdominals, obliques, lower back, and deeper stabilizing muscles. The medicine ball, a weighted ball that comes in various sizes and weights, adds resistance to the exercises, making them more challenging and effective for core development.
Let's get started by grabbing your ball and having it down by your right side in both hands.
This is the starting position.
From here take the ball diagonally up and across your lap so the ball is at head height, or above, on your left side. As you do, try and only use your core to twist. Then do the same in reverse back down to the right side. This is one repetition, now repeat this for the desired amount.
You can change the intensity of this exercise by increasing or decreasing the weight of the ball.
