The 10 Best Slam Balls

The Titan Fitness (around $44) comes in weights ranging from 10 to 60 pounds to ensure there is one suitable for every fitness level. It features an extra-thick hard rubber shell that can stand up to some serious use, making it ideal for commercial gym facilities.

The DynaPro Medicine (about $32) is reasonably priced and each one is color-coded based on its weight, which is great for those times you have to switch balls mid workout and don't want your body to cool down as you hunt for the one you need.

The TRX Training Easy Grip (appx. $35) has very deep tread running over its entire surface, so it won't slip through sweaty hands. It is also designed to absorb impacts as it hits the ground, no matter how hard you throw it, making it ideal for those who workout with high intensity.

In addition to the consistent pebbling that covers the entire surface of the Rage Fitness Supply CF-SB325 (appx. $33), it also features a few raised rings around it that add a little extra friction to prevent accidental releases as you slam it towards the ground.

The Power Guidance Grooved (about $48) start at six pounds, and then increase in two-pound increments until ten pounds, at which point they begin increasing in five-pound increments all the way up to their heaviest thirty-pound option.

With the Sklz No Bounce (appx. $59) you'll have to bend down between every throw to retrieve the ball, which helps you burn extra calories and makes your workouts more effective. It's available in six different weights and three different diameters to fit small and large hands alike.

The Lifeline High Impact (about $39) lands with a thud when it hits the ground and stays right where you slammed it, so if you are a hard thrower and worried about a potential injury from powerful bounce-back with other options, this is one of your best bets.

Unlike the majority of other options, which are generally plain black, the CFF Fit Slammer (about $36) comes in a light grey color that allows it to stand apart from the rest, so there is almost no chance of somebody else accidentally taking your ball thinking it is their own.

The Rep V2 (appx. $40) is one of the few options that comes in weights as heavy as 70 pounds, so if you are a serious lifter, this is probably your best bet. Beginners aren't left out, though, because it is also available in a five-pound model.

If your workout routines include one that has some bounce to it, then the JMB Medicine Slam (around $39) is for you. It has deep pebbling on it that provides a good grip and makes it easier to catch with sweaty hands, which is important because it can rebound quickly.
