Cardio Training with a Core Twist: Must-Try Medicine Ball Moves

Today we want to share with you one AMAZING way to get more core training from your cardio workout: just add a Baller! Also known as a medicine ball, this ingenious equipment is easy to handle, but allows you to add some more resistance to classic cardio moves. Just grip it and go!

These medicine ball exercises are PERFECT for people looking to get the most out of every sweaty second of training. They’re designed to jack-up your metabolism and your heart-rate for sculpted, strong AF results, allowing you to work smarter (and harder) for less time. (And what’s not to love about that?)

In fact, medicine balls have been used for centuries to improve total body strength, agility, and functionality. We’ve just improved the design to make our Baller easier to hold (thanks to its soft grip construction) and more durable than ever so you can have it in your home gym arsenal for decades.

Ready to train with our Baller?

Awesome! Here are a few of our favourite moves to get you started. You can grab your BodyRock Baller here, if you don't already have one. (They're a great price!)

Once you have your Baller, all you need to do is carve out a little time for yourself a few times a week. Add these two moves to your next workout and within sections, you'll feel the difference a Baller can make.
