Champion Sports Rhino Promax Slam Balls, 10 lb, Soft Shell with Non-Slip Grip, Medicine Wall Exercise Ball for Weightlifting, Plyometrics, Cross Training, & Home Gym Fitness

I bought this for my wife in December of 2019 and am now writing this review in August 2020 (photo from August 2020). She's done probably 25-30 CrossFit workouts using this for strictly wall balls. We paid 31.99 for this wall ball at the time and we selected it because it was so cheap and we were still starting out building up our home gym. Overall I would purchase it again for 31.99 but we're looking at getting a new one because this one just isn't good enough. You get what you pay for. 3 stars. Not bad but there are certainly much better products out there.Pros:Cheap - at the time, this ball was super cheap compared to competitors. With COVID19 I see it's over $70 on Amazon now which is crazy. I would absolutely avoid this ball for $70. For 31.99 like we paid? Yeah that's more worth it.Well made - as stated above this has been through 25-30 workouts and there are zero issues with the stability of the ball. No signs of wear on the seams. In fact, this is almost a con as I will discuss belowCons:Too sturdy - this thing is hard. Like really hard. There is almost no flex which means that when it comes to catching it, it almost slips through your fingers. Because the exterior is so smooth it contributes to this problem. Do not get this ball unless you're experienced with the weight of the ball you're selecting. This thing is difficult to catch versus the myriad of other balls we've used for CrossFit, especially when round 5 rolls around and you're dying.The bounce - sort of tied into the above issue, this ball won't just stay where it falls. If you're doing your last rep or taking a break and let the ball hit the ground then it will bounce a foot or two in the air, remain unstable, and roll away from where you're doing wall balls. It's super inconvenient if you're doing a workout for time and this thing rolls away.

First off, THESE ARE NOT SLAM BALLS. Many medicine balls of this variety get negative reviews simply because people use them for slamming and blow out the seams. That is not what they are intended for. If you want a slam ball, buy a rubber ball filled with sand.Secondly, this ball does seem to be very well constructed. I opted for the “elite” variety for that reason and the stitching seems to be very well done. I am confident that this ball will hold up to heavy use, and possibly even a little slamming. However it arrived to be with one glaring flaw: it was shaped like a badly deformed egg. That is not ideal when doing any sort of bouncing or tossing, the ball can go any which way and throw off your workout. Almost all medicine balls will eventually lose shape and need to be replaced, but I’d rather not start from the beginning like that.So, I am returning it without even using it, and will spend the extra money for something more reliable (and round). I received it yesterday and am shipping it back today. I’m sure I could easily exchange it for a new ball until I received one that was the right shape, however I am deciding to try a different route.

Very disappointing. Does not hold up in commercial gym environment. Seams busted on everyone we ordered. Might be ok for home use.

These Slam Balls are not weighted properly and are not balanced evenly. They are crooked and the weight inside is not evenly distributed, making them awkward to use in exercise! I would highly suggest researching elsewhere. Not what we expected for the price and brand.

I wanted to get a light medicine ball like this one for my kids to work on their tennis game. The heavier ones cause them to lose their posture when simulating strokes. This light one is perfect for them (9 and 10 year old boys). In fact, I will also get a 2 lb ball to have a lighter one. We've thrown this against the wall, slammed it down onto the court, etc. It seems to be holding up just fine.

After the first use, the ball became lumpy and does not toss or throw evenly. The exterior is very smooth and silky, and very difficult to catch or throw. As a personal trainer with a decade of experience, I would not recommend purchasing this item.I am highly dissatisfied as I cannot use it with my clients (too lumpy, too smooth surface) and will be buying another jam ball/slam ball/plyo ball of a different brand - i’ve used the rogue balls in the past, but they’re just quite expensive lol & this was an inexpensive option… I guess you get what you pay for

As long as you don't use this to bounce against the floor or wall, it's fine. You can hold it or toss it.I ordered 2 and both of them have the weighted core very off centered. When used to bounce, chances are it's going off in another direction. Even just the slightest distance of leaving your hands to bounce, where it should be guaranteed to bounce right back where it came from, like 5 inches, it may not.

I’ve been an avid Crossfitter for 4 years so when my Box closed for COVID-19 I quickly assembled some essential equipment for working out in my garage at home. The 20# Rhino Promax med ball was one of my first purchases. To be honest the quality is fine the issue it is just not even close to round. If you try to do Wall Balls with it it comes off the wall at all kind of crazy angles because of its shape. It works fine for other thing like Med ball thrusters or sit ups but for wall balls it is awful. I’m outside the return period so I’m keeping it but it is so annoying I just ordered a Dynamax ball, which is what my local Box has.

Peux être est-ce à cause du fait que c'est un 6 livres, mais la texture et la densité sont particulières.. Il est raide au lieu d'être moi..

La sentí muy dura, es cuestión de aflojarla con los entrenamientos pero al parecer de buena calidad

LOVED this wall ball, excellent quality, sturdy, easy to grip. Perfect

La masa de adentro no deja hacer los ejercicios de forma correcta, está cargada hacia un lado y esto hace complicado el uso para Wallballs, tal vez para otra cosa funcione

Todo en general excelente, super peso para entrenamiento básico a medio. y la calidad de los materiales es muy buena también. Quedé satisfecha con mi compra
