Medicine Ball Overhead Slam

Expert Advice

Use your entire body when performing the slam, not just your arms, to engage more muscle groups and increase calorie burn.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding the medicine ball overhead.
  2. Rise onto the balls of your feet as you reach the ball up.
  3. Slam the ball down to the ground in front of you as hard as you can, engaging your core and lats.
  4. Squat down to pick up the ball, keeping your back straight.
  5. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
