#Info – Medicine Ball Deadlift
The Medicine Ball Deadlift is excellent for building foundational strength and improving form for heavier lifts. Common mistakes include rounding the back and using the upper body instead of engaging the hips and glutes. To avoid this, focus on keeping the chest up and spine neutral. For beginners, start with a lighter ball to master form. Advanced users can increase the weight or integrate it into a HIIT routine for added cardio benefits. This exercise boosts core stability and functional strength, making it a versatile addition to any fitness level. Always prioritize form over weight to prevent injury.
