Medicine Ball - Watch Out

Last night at the gym the funniest thing happened.

I was with my trainer and she started me on lunges using a 6 lb. medicine ball that I had to hold out away from my body, lunge and then twist my upper body to the side and then switch to the other side. The area that we work in was pretty crowded, with people walking over to get weights or mats right near us.

On my second repetition, I was lunging and twisting my body with the medicine ball when a few guys started walking past. My trainer shouted a warning "Watch your balls!" to the guys. I almost lost it! My trainer is not known for being subtle and this was just what you'd expect from her, except that none of us expected it!
