Medicine ball work outs are being rediscovered by athletes and fitness experts everywhere. It is one of the oldest forms of strength and conditioning training methods. A medicine ball helps build core strength, tightens abdominals and improves joint integrity. The medicine ball also provides resistance through a full range of motions. They can be integrated into any programme to develop muscular endurance, core strength and upper-body power. Medicine balls are extremely versatile and fun to use, making boring exercises more dynamic and effective.

From a functional fitness aspect, the ability to generate strength and power is a very important component for success in many sports, particularly in those involving explosive movements. To achieve this certain medicine ball exercises can be used as part of a plyometric training program. It can be really effective if a program includes exercises that match the pattern of movement of the particular sport.
