Medicine balls are effective exercise equipment for professional boxers, who use them to build strength in the abdominal muscles. A medicine ball is dropped onto a boxer’s abdomen from a certain height to simulate a punch from an opponent.
Certain schools use medicine balls as fitness aids for students, who must perform a wide range of exercises to stretch their muscles and improve their strength.
