Medicine balls are versatile fitness tools made from durable rubbery material, offering a weighted resistance for various exercises.
Unlike free weights, they excel in dynamic applications, including throws or movements incorporating instability, due to their round structure.
The back, encompassing muscles in the upper torso, primarily aids pulling and various shoulder motions.
It is commonly targeted using exercises like rows, pull-ups, and lat pull-downs.
Combining medicine balls with back exercises can create dynamic, engaging workouts tailored for strengthening and toning this essential muscle group.
