Overview
A synthetic leather medicine ball with reinforced stitching and a non-slip textured surface, built for grip-and-hold work like twists, throws and controlled core training rather than floor slams.
- Synthetic leather non-slip surface
- Reinforced stitching for durability
- Multiple weight and size options
- Suited to pilates, cross training and core work
Who it's for
People who want a classic grip-and-hold medicine ball for core and strength training. Not for anyone wanting a ball meant to be thrown or slammed against a wall or floor.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers who wanted a genuine grip-and-hold medicine ball rather than a slam ball were satisfied with the leather surface and stitching, with one reporting six years of reliable use, though a few received units in the opposite unit of measure, kilograms instead of pounds, from what they ordered.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Stitching held up after six years of use
- Non-slip textured grip even when sweaty
- Genuine medicine ball, not a slam ball
- Available across a range of weights
- Sand fill inside can surprise first-time buyers
- Some received wrong unit of measure, kg vs lb
Performance notes
The synthetic leather surface holds grip even when sweaty, which is why reviewers pick leather over rubber for narrow-grip pushups and twisting core movements.
