CSP Elite Baseball Development Podcast – Pinch Hit Friday #47: 5 Common Mistakes with Medicine Ball Exercises

About the Author: Eric Cressey

Medicine ball workouts are essential for any rotational sport athlete, but that’s not to say that there aren’t a lot of programming and technique mistakes that can interfere with their benefits. In this podcast, I cover my top five mistakes with medicine ball exercises. You can also check out www.CresseyMedBall.com to learn more about my comprehensive Medicine Ball Masterclass, which is on sale for 25% off through Sunday at midnight.

Sponsor Reminder

This episode is brought to you by Ancore Training. Ancore is an attachment that rigs up easily to power rack, support beam, or wall mount. Once it’s set up, you can do chops, lifts, rotational patterns, presses, rows, and a variety of arm care exercises. Basically, if you can do it on a functional trainer or conventional cable set-up, you can do it on Ancore – but at a dramatically lower price and with much less space taken up. For these reasons, it’s a perfect addition to baseball facilities and home gym that might have limited space and budget. And, we have multiple units at both Cressey Sports Performance facilities.

Perhaps most importantly, Ancore travels extremely light; you can throw it in a backpack or suitcase and not even know it’s there. I know of coaches and players that are taking these units on the road to overcome underequipped weight rooms and hotel gyms.

When all is said and done, it saves space, money, and headaches while also offering the benefits of portability.
