ProsourceFit Weighted Toning Exercise Hand Balls for Pilates & Yoga

The 3lb ProsourceFit Weighted Toning Exercise Hand Ball is a nice added touch to my yoga routine. I love the color and it is easy to fit in my hand. I like this better than working with dumb bells. The ball is not slippery, but could use some additional texture for a better grip. The inside contents of the ball must have a sand substance, because I can hear the contents shifting when I move it around. The shifting sand will gives a better ability for toning muscles. The 3lb weight is just enough for me. It will help give me some toning, and build endurance, without feeling like I am straining myself. I like that this ball is small enough to carry in my bag to the gym. I plan to use this Toning ball to help strengthen my back and spine. This ball does not bounce and does not roll away and can be used by both men and women. Although it is only 3lbs, I would not recommend this ball to be used by children. I do wish enclosed in the packaging of the toning ball, would have come with some additional exercise techniques or instructions so I can use this at home and not just learn from an instructor or on line tools. Overall, I really do like using this ball and can't wait to get more use for added balance and toning.
