Can anyone tell me what size medicine ball Cathe uses?

particularly in her Muscle Endurance and Boot Camp workouts? Sorry if this may have been posted earlier, but I don't get a chance to read the boards or post much, as you can tell from the # of posts I have done.

I think it's 10# (at least for the step-ups), but be sure to use whatever weight works best for YOU.

In the breakdown of both Boot Camp and Muscle Endurance under "Videos" on the home page of this site, it says they are using an 8# medicine ball.

Thank you Kathryn & Carol. You're right---I should have read the video descriptions on what they use. Sorry about that, but thank you for educating me

The reason I asked was 1) I didn't know, and 2) Big 5 Sporting Goods store's ad just came out today, and they have a 10# medicine ball on sale for $15.99 (marked down from $39.99) and I was wondering if this would work. Kathryn, you have a point to use whatever I'm comfortable with, however since I'm not nearly as buff as Cathe and her crew are, I'm not going to try to out-do them and go for 10# if they use 8# in their workouts.

They are 8# - I did BC this morning and Cathe evens talks about the 8# ball in part of the core work.
