There are two ways. If using an old fashioned ball, you need a partner - throw the ball across the body for hooks, and upwards for upper cuts. Or you can use one of those modern medicine balls with handles, like the <a href="http://astore.amazon.com/motley-health-fitness-store-20/detail/B000MQ8VSU" rel="nofollow">Everlast Double Grip Rubber Medicine Balll.</a> Then use them like dumbbells, or throw (let go) when shadow boxing. I should have been clearer - I am sure that you are no dimwit! Here's a YouTube clip that explains a little better. <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-kDYR87FMic&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed> Hi Stephen, you are probably trying to imagine how to do this with an old fashioned leather ball.

I am a aspiring boxer who has just come across plyometric workouts and find this page extremely informative and easy to understand (boxing workout) though I can not get my head a couple of the exercises for example how can I throw a jab, uppercut etc with a medicine ball any tips on how to do these or explained so a dimwit like me can understand would be greatly appreciated thank you very much.
