Commonly asked questions
The Medicine Ball Throw Test measures upper body strength and explosive power, evaluating how far an individual can throw a medicine ball under various conditions (overhead, seated, etc.).
A "good" medicine ball throw distance varies widely depending on factors like age, gender, fitness level, and the medicine ball training's weight. Performance should ideally be compared to the same individual's normative data or previous results.
