Absolutely not – they compliment each other. Medicine Ball work is a bridge that incorporates the strength gained from weight training into specific athletic motion. When heavier balls are used for slower, low volume sets, their use is more akin to weight training and equivalent to a glorified dumbbell exercise. When lighter balls are used for high volume/high velocity sets, the intent is for quality, speed, power, and endurance of specific movement patterns. It is important to incorporate movement-based medicine ball training into a well rounded program that focuses on strength training, plyometrics, core strength, and overall cardiovascular fitness, along with other components specific to your training requirements. We believe that movement-based partner medicine ball training provides superior training results to other, more basic forms of medicine ball training.
