Does anyone know where I can buy a 15kg medicine ball that is durable enough to bounce off a wall without breaking apart? As one of my favourite exercises is throwing / catching a medicine ball, while on a reclining sit-up bench.
I've been doing this workout for about 5 weeks. Today I finally completed the full 400 reps. It's a very good ab workout. I found it here first then on the Men's Health site. Appreciate the video, it was helpful.
Except it's only 200 reps, unless you do it twice, 5 weeks of doing that and only twice ? I've been doing it every other day for 2 and I can do it twice or in a pyramid.
ok this is a core exercise and its in the september issue in australia also this workout will only tone ur body its very fast i do it twice a week but it kills ur shoulders n abs alot but it neglects ur bicep and legs are not under alot of strain
why is this better/worse then crunches or anything else?
i would of thought there must be one system that beats all and to be honest i see so many people useing medicine balls and get nothing out of it but then i guess that could just be the person lol
Its all about variety, thats how you build muscle, don't just try one type of exercise. The more you can change things up the better the results you will see. good luck
awesome that I found this...i have the MH with the cutout of the medball and then i picked up a med ball today..happens to be the same one your holding..hopefully this ads a bit of core strength to my regular workouts!
well first off starving yourself is one of the worst things to do, your body needs to eat, and when you starve yourself it eats the protein in your muscles first, then your fat. a great weight loss exercise is cardio, other than that and the other exercises shown here and other places, you need to eat right, eating the wrong foods just counters what you do when you work out. so go to something like the abs diet to find out what you should and should not eat.
I am so glad that Craig posted this. He is my fav fitness author at the moment. His workouts are effective, functional and practical. I am glad that he has his shirt off because this is a AB video. He normally has a baggy shirt on and shirtless we can really see the exercise. Peace.

Most of it can be. It's worth a try. It's definitely more comfortable with a medicine ball.

tans are overrated, give you melanomas ,age your skin.
fake tans are just lain LAME.
wear the skin you have well,whatever the colour, and be healthy happy and care less about such BS as tanning.
Vanity is for the shallow people.
