As a weighted ball, the 16lb medicine ball is super effective for core, rotational and ballistic training. If you’re ready to take explosive fitness training to the next level, Dynamax is the No.1 choice for elite athletes, including NFL, NBA and MLB teams.
Handmade in the USA from 70% recycled materials, Dynamax balls are soft and easy to grip on the outside, but built to withstand high-velocity impacts. Dynamax balls absorb impact, meaning you use more strength to keep it moving – a great tool for developing explosive core power!
How to Choose the Right Medicine Ball
To get the most out of your sessions, you need the right ball weight. The 16lb ball falls just outside the beginners weight category. It’s designed for the more experienced, and those looking to build up strength through resistance.
With medicine ball training, you should feel enough resistance to challenge your body, but your movements shouldn’t be restricted. Lunges, throws and rotations should all be possible.
The 16lb Medicine Ball is available in a standard size, and you have a fantastic choice of color options to choose from to bring a personal touch to your training.
Lighter balls are not just for beginners – they’re ideal for agile, fast-paced movements and perfecting the accuracy and technique of your drills. However, if building strength in your muscles is your priority, this ball weight is ideal.
For progressive resistance training, we offer a wide range of weights, all the way up to 150lb with our Atlas ball.
