Beginner Medicine Ball Workout for Legs

 Subscribe in a reader


This beginner medicine ball workout is designed to help improve the strength and balance in your legs to set the foundation for you to build muscle as you become more comfortable with the moves and are able to lift more weight.



This workout plan uses three exercises, the squat, the single leg squat, and the lunge. The description for each exercise can be found on our medicine ball exercises page.

Perform each exercise in this beginner workout in a controlled manner. There is no need to rush. Concentrate on maintaining good form and posture.

Lower your self for two counts, pause for two counts at the bottom. You want to be slightly more explosive when returning to the starting position, so use a one count to return to upright.

This is a circuit routine, meaning that you want to perform each exercise in succession, resting for 90 to 120 seconds, and then repeating the circuit. Complete three circuits in total.
