Medicine Balls

I’m thinking about buying a 20 lbs dynamax medicine ball for my throws and was curious as to what everyone else was using.

20 lb dumbbell

Basketball filled with sand and wrapped with duct tape towels and more duct tape.

Don’t know if that’s a joke, but if not, that’s awesome!!! lol

We use a 12lbs med ball for throws.

Oh okay good to know I have a 12lbs generic slam ball I’ll just use that. Thank Jim!

The benefits of a home gym and nearby field. Not so good for chest passes though.

No, for real. Dynamax balls were too costly for the limited use I put them through so the sand filled basketball was a good sub for me and cost about $15.00

Lighter balls accelerate faster with less torque on your shoulders. I like to really whip the ball and IMO the 20 pounders are too slow. Given the choice I usually pick one in the 10-12 lb. range.
