Cathe's Med Ball vs. Fitness Ball.....

[banslug]

I'm going to workout with/to Cathe on Monday.

I need to buy a heavier fitness ball. I'm currently using a 3# fitness ball for anything and everything Cathe uses her med ball for in the DVDs, but I'm way past that and I figure, I'll buy one while I'm at the gym Monday to save on shipping (not to mention, to support Cathe).

My question is whether to get the 6# Medicine Ball with the detachable handle or the 6# Fitness Ball?

How does the handle go back on and is it easy to do so?

Any thoughts or recommendations???

I have no clue because I don't own either (yet! ). BUT I think I'd buy the Med Ball for two reasons:

1. It's probably going to be used in a future Cathe DVD.
2. It would be neat to have if you ever try a Kettlebell workout.
3. If neither applies, you've still got yourself a fitness ball once the handles are off.

That was three reasons.

Heh. The only reason I think Cathe will be putting out a KB-type workout is because when I asked about the core balance board, I was told that Cathe does have a DVD in the works that will use it. I would imagine the same is true for the Med ball too.
