Its versatility comes from the fact that a variety of explosive movements can be engaged and stability can be created with medicine balls in and out of the gym.
Benefits of Med Balls They are very versatile They can be thrown They can be bounced or slammed They can be utilized as an external load They can be used as an unstable surface They are portable They are not too expensive

They can be utilized for overloading many different movement patterns. These movement patterns can be fixed or more fluid improving their sport specific functionality Can be utilized by many different people of various strength or conditioning levels They improve coordination They improve deceleration, absorption, kinetic integrity and acceleration proficiency and mechanics They can be released which means the deceleration typically associated with barbell or dumbbell movements is not a limitation Teaches athletes how to be faster and more explosive
Medicine balls can be heavy or light, which means their usage falls along brief ranges of the F(v) curve. They can be lifted explosively, engage a reactive expression or be utilized for endurance training. Because of this, various strength qualities can be developed.
Strength Developed by Medicine Balls Muscular Endurance low intensity, long duration means, i.e. med ball lunges
Power Endurance power is defined as force displayed in minimal time. Linking these expressions together can increase an athletes power work capacity, i.e. med ball slams

Reactive Expression reactive expressions with a med ball are similar to a conventional bodyweight reactive expression with a deceleration, energy accumulation, rapid reversal of direction and accelerated. concentric contraction, i.e. med ball catch / squat and throw
Speed-Strength a combination of starting strength (activation) and explosive strength (fast contraction after activation) can be developed because of the weight of the medicine ball and static starting position, i.e. med ball backward throws
The medicine ball, because of its portability, can be secured and racked in a variety of ways while executing different movements.

The volume of a training session is dependent upon the strength qualities being targeted. We dont want to sacrifice the goal just to achieve a certain amount of reps and sets. If the goal is speed and
Explosive Medicine Ball Training Copyright 2007-2008 Jim Smith, CSCS. All Rights Reserved http://www.CombatCoreStrength.com/
explosiveness, when this quality diminishes during the set, stop the set.
Training Goals Speed 6-8 reps / set, 20-30 total reps per session Endurance 10-15 reps / set, 30-60 total reps per session Explosive Power - 4-6 reps / set, 16-24 total reps per session
Complex Training Following a heavy resisted conventional strength training means with an explosive exercise or vice versa, is an example of complex training. This sequence not only develops an athletes strength and power but ultimately strives to activate or turn on the greatest number of motor units in the shortest amount of time.
We can utilize medicine balls in a complex training sequence in order to realize these benefits.
Some examples include: Squat Med Ball Backward Throws Deadlift Reactive Med Ball Squats Med Ball Chest Wall Passes DB Bench Press
We can also change the sequence and replace the strength training means with a SPP (Specialized Physical Preparedness or sport

specific movement), an agility movement, an endurance movement in a complex and so on. You are only limited by your own creativity.
Some examples include: Heavy Bag Punch Combinations Rotational Med Ball Throws Zig Zag Cone Drills Med Ball Slams Kettlebell Pullthroughs Med Ball Floor Chest Passes Batting Practice Med Ball Reverse Rotational Pattern Wall Throws
Dynamax
Used typically for carrying movements, push press movements against a wall, back and forth partner drills or for judging the depth for long duration bodyweight squats.

Conclusion
Medicine balls are a versatile tool for your athletes. Remember, as always, they are only one tool. There are many. Use them for their purpose, but be comprehensive in your training protocols. Medicine balls will enhance your athletes abilities to move quickly and create explosive power and should be a supplement to maximal, dynamic and repetitive effort resistance training. Many exercises in this manual you have probably never seen, like the reactive squats or the back extension dribbling. You too can be innovative and discover new uses for medicine if you do not get locked into conventional thought. Your strength coach,
