My Secret Medicine Ball Training
If you’re getting tired of all the sameness of barbell and dumbbell exercises, that you need to change things around somewhat and try some fat burning using a medicine ball. I’m going to list some exercises that you can combine into circuits to make a powerful workout that will burn fat and boost your metabolism. These can be good six pack ab exercises.
Go ahead and buy a medicine ball if you are going to workout at home.Medicine balls with a weight of 8 lb are going to do the job while a woman needs a 6 lb ball.
Don’t pause at all during this sequence of exercises so you can get them done correctly and get the most benefit from your work.Do this circuit one time for effectiveness, but if you have time and if you want to you can do it a few times.
Begin by squatting with the sphere in your hands. Lower yourself at the hips and then drive yourself back up. On the way up, your sphere should be lifted overhead with your arms extended.
A big circle exercise is next, where the ball is higher than your head in both hands. Rotate your ball down and then around like a clock. The power golf squat is next. How many golfers have you seen doing this?
Put each foot with a good space in between. You’ll get your sphere up and then propel it downward to your foot that is on the opposite side.Once you’re finished with this oblique move on to the other.
Downward slanted push-ups are next. Do them with your feet up on the sphere. You can probably find more about this in a weight loss forum.
Lunge diagonally for the next exercise. Do a chopping motion starting with the sphere overhead as you move forward. Be sure to complete this for both sides.
For a special challenge, curl the sphere with your legs.
Do this by putting your feet up on the ball and then with your hips bridged roll the ball toward you and then away from you.Bridge your thighs if you can’t do this one, OK?
Pounds with the sphere and pullups while holding the sphere with each foot are the final two sequences that I’m going to mention.
Raise your torso completely while doing the pull-ups. For the slams, propel the medicine ball to the ground with one foot and then the other foot forward.
