Medicine Ball Squat Throws

•The medicine ball squat throw is a total-body workout that primarily targets the
quadriceps, glutes, hamstrings, shoulders, and triceps. A medicine ball is widely used to
develop core strength, which involves strengthening the muscles in your belly and back.
Through optimal alignment, this aids in balance, posture, and overall wellness. 
•Medicine balls are an excellent tool for developing both upper- and lower-body
strength. Throwing the weight helps you to produce the most force and velocity in the
movement. Medicine balls can also help with more complex rotating movements.

•The only thing you actually need for medicine ball squat throws is a medicine ball.

How to choose a suitable Medicine Ball?


First we need to consider
Size - The size of the ball should be appropriate, neither too big nor too small for you.
Quality- The ball's quality must be exceptional. Check several brands and choose from
their selection of high-quality medicine balls. Make sure you obtain a sturdy medicine
ball.
Weight- The weight of the ball is determined by your ability and needs. Medicine balls at
marketplaces often range in weight from 5 to 12 kilogram. Choose a ball that you can lift
without straining your muscles.

Procedure:

 Step 1: Grab a medicine ball and stand with feet about hip-width apart and toes pointed
outward slightly.

 Step 2: Position your hands under the ball so that you are holding the ball at chest/neck level.
This is the starting position.

 Step 3: Begin exercise by squatting down so that your thighs are parallel with the ground and
knees do not pass your toes.

 Step 4: Come up out of the squat and push the medicine ball overhead so that the ball leaves
your hands.

 Step 5: Catch the ball and drop down into the next squat. Repeat for the desired repetitions.
