Medicine balls

Medicine ball

— a medicine ball is a special type of stuffed ball that is used as a weighting agent. The outer shell is usually made of rubber or leather, and hardware is done with shavings, chips, or a thick gel. Medicine balls are often equipped with a handle that turns the ball into a kind of kettlebell. The high density prevents the medicine ball from bouncing off surfaces like a soccer ball does.

The projectile allows you to create an additional load on the musculoskeletal system. With a medicine ball, you can crouch, roll, lunge, jump, etc. You can throw a stuffed ball to each other or hit it against the wall / floor. Medicine balls with a handle can be used for bench presses.
