Medicine ball

[Saker]

Hi

I have bought a few new Cathe workouts recently which I haven't tried yet, and noticed some need a medicine ball. My question is - would this be worth buying or can I get by with a dumbbell? And if I do buy one which weight should I get or do people use more than one?

thanks
Ruth

You can get by with a dumbbell. I use an 8 pound dumbbell. I think in Boot Camp and Muscle Endurance she shows Lorrayne using the dumbbell for people who don't have a medicine ball.

You can use a dumbbell and I did for a while, then I broke down and bought a medicine ball to use and I love it - I went with the 8# right away. It wasn't too expensive at Walmart. I like it, but a dumbbell works for most exercises as well.

You can get by with a dumbell.

I agree with Deena. I don't ahve a medicine ball either because I just think iz a waste of money. It's just like a dumbell only round...er:7 :7

Thanks for the advice everyone. That's very helpful. I'll probably stick with the dumbbell for the time being.
