Nutri-Sport & Full Potential Training tip: Medicine ball pushups
March 30, 2010 by Ryan Irwin · Leave a Comment
There are many aspects to fitness: strength, cardiovascular, flexibility, balance, coordination, to name some. Today’s exercise hits on strength, flexibility, balance and coordination.
In the video below, David demonstrates medicine ball push-ups. This exercise directly hits the chest, shoulders and triceps. What really makes this a great exercise is that since you are using a med ball, it requires shoulder stabilization, plus one arm at a time helps develop balance between each side. Having to roll the ball back and forth requires coordination and focus, which are important especially in the athletic world.
Give this exercise a try at the end of your next chest workout.
