Golds Sand Medicine Ball

Bands I got from Walmart made by Gold's Gym, and a 8lb Sand Ball I really like.

I got the 8lb Sand Ball and decided to give it a whirl last night with my client, to see if I like it better then "no handles" on my other med balls. I have a 4lb and 6lb medicine ball this adds an 8lb so I am happy about that.

The movement of the sand does increase intensity = money well spent.

I also added some circle bands too. Some of the bands I bought I cut up and added handles from my Perform Better fitness bands and they work great. These band are not near as thick as commercial grade but they do work well for home use. Honestly I have not had time to order new ones yet, my BAD.

I give the bands = 8
I give the ball = 10
