D-Balls Medicine BallsStrength and power training benefits are enhanced with a single ball size spanning a wide range of weight. This means the same lifting-leverage factors will be applied consistently to the athlete's conditioning performance. D-Ball benefits are similar to Olympic lifting. However, D-Ball places more emphasis on the core where the transfer of power linkage of the three torso components, shoulders, core and hips is similar, but the ball is held off the centerline so the core works harder to support lift and stability. Yellow D-Balls (speedballs) are a golden yellow and do not bounce. They have a soft grip for a firm hold to move and throw in turn emphasizing both strength and speed. D-ball is the same size over an extended range of weight. The fact that the Yellow D-Balls do not bounce adds work as it must be picked up off the ground each time it's thrown. Orange D-Balls do a semi-bounce and are hunter orange in color for high visibility. They come in Grippers (5") and Fireballs (3.75"). They have a hard shell which allows them to bounce, i.e. a hard bounce or dead bounce so that physical work can be seen. Moreover, the high visibility of the color means quicker reactions and speed resulting in better performance and reducing the risk of injury from a flying weighted ball. It takes a strong effort to produce a good semi-bounce. |
